UNPACK SPACE NAVIGATOR
Carefully unpack your Space Navigator from its box
and unwrap it. Gently place it on a table in front of
you—the buttons and “Your Sky Tonight” window
should be face up. Take a moment to familiarize
yourself with the unit and its parts by comparing it to
the illustration on the facing page.
BATTERY INSTALLATION
Place a towel or a folded newspaper to one side of
Space Navigator. Then carefully turn the unit upside-
down on this padding material to prevent scratching
or marring Space Navigator.
AAA Battery Compartment
Now you can see the two battery-compartment cov-
ers—a larger one over the heading “OBJECT MAP
NUMBERS” and a smaller one to the right. Remove
the larger cover by using a small Phillips
screwdriver to remove the screw and then pulling
down and out on the tab-lock at the top of the com-
partment. Install three AAA batteries in the large
compartment—these power the display lights and
the voice of Space Navigator. Make sure to follow
the diagram inside the battery compartment so that
the polarity (“+” and “-“) ends are properly aligned.
INSTALLING THE MAPS IN
THE MAP COMPARTMENT
After youʼve loaded the batteries, carefully remove
the circular maps from their plastic bag. Hold them
together and slide them into their compartment on
the back of the unit (see the diagram on page 6).
The numbered, transparent tabs should be visible,
and the numbers on them should be readable—not
backward. The maps will slide into their compart-
ment easily if you line up the maps with the straight
edges on each side. Once youʼve slid all the maps
into the compartment, center the black, middle tabs
in their holder. It does not matter what map is front
or behind another.
NOW YOU’RE READY TO SET UP!
Now find the ACL (“All Clear”) button near the bot-
tom of Space Navigator, in the shoulder of the draw-
ing of the dragon. (This button is recessed so that
you wonʼt later accidentally press it, wiping out your
personal info.) Using a ballpoint pen or paperclip,
press the ACL button. You will hear “Press select
to enter setup.” Turn your unit over. Youʼll see that
the LCD will display the same message. Turn to the
“Set Up” section on page 8.
AG-13 Battery Compartment
You do not need to remove the smaller battery cover
at this time. Your Space Navigator comes with two
AG-13 batteries already installed in this compartment.
They supply power to your LCD. In the future, when
you notice your LCD dimming or showing impartial
or incorrect letters, you should remove the smaller
battery compartment lid and replace the two AG-13
batteries according to the diagram at the top of the
next column.
