Position Page - Garmin GPS 12 MAP Owner's Manual

The Position Page shows you where you are,
what direction you're heading, and how fast
you're going—and it's the page you'll want to
use when you don't have a destination selected.
A graphic compass display at the top of the
page shows your direction of travel (track)
while you're moving, while six user-selectable
data fields below display your current speed,
average speed, trip odometer, trip timer, and
sunrise/sunset times at your current position.
"User-selectable" means you can change them to
display other information. We'll cover these
fields more in the reference section.
Below the user-selectable data fields are
additional data fields to display your current
position, along with current time and date. The
current position readout can be in latitude/
longitude, UTM/UPS, Maidenhead or one of
several regional grids. Current time and date
can be in local time or UTC (Coordinated
Universal Time).
