Scale/Range
Chart scale (range) may be selected with the
soft key ZOOM IN or ZOOM OUT. ZOOM IN
expands the chart; ZOOM OUT shrinks it.

shrunk beyond the range of the chart card in
use NO CHART appears, along with the ap-
propriate chart icon. See Table 2-1.

2.5 Mini Chart Cards

The mini chart cards contain nautical charts.
When you insert a suitable mini chart card in
the slot and your boat is near land, a chart
appears.
When a wrong card is inserted or a wrong
chart scale is selected, the land will be hol-
low. Insert the proper card and select a suit-
able chart scale. Chart icons appear to help
you select a suitable chart scale. Table 2-1
shows the chart icons and their meanings.
