Page Groups; To Select The Desired Nav Page; To Select The Nav Group And Display The Default Nav Page - Garmin GPS 500 Pilot's Manual & Reference

The Map page is one of four pages available under the NAV group*:
• Default NAV page
• NAVCOM page
To select the desired NAV page, rotate the small right knob until the desired page is displayed.
If you are currently viewing a page which is not part of the NAV group, you can quickly return to
the NAV group using the CLR key.
To select the NAV group and display the Default NAV page, press and hold CLR.
In addition to the NAV group of pages, additional groups of pages are available for waypoint infor-
mation (WPT), auxiliary (AUX) functions such as flight planning or unit settings, and listings for
nearest (NRST) airports or other facilities.

Page 11 depicts the organization of the main page groups. Additionally, page groups for flight plans,
procedures and vertical navigation are available by pressing the key corresponding to the desired
function (FPL, PROC, VNAV or NRST). Selecting one of these stand-alone page groups, in effect,
exits the main page groups and displays a page for the desired function. By pressing the same function
key a second time, (except NRST) the GPS 500 returns to the main page group and the previously
displayed page.
To select a stand-alone page group, press the corresponding key (FPL, PROC, VNAV or
