Active Route Page Options - Garmin GPS III A Owner's Manual

Many features of the GPS III are menu driven. Each of the main pages has an
options menu, allowing you to custom tailor the corresponding page to your prefer-
ences and/or select special features which specifically relate to that page.
To display the Active Route Page Options, press MENU (with the Active
Route Page displayed).
The following options are available:
Show Map— allows you to view the area around the active route. When select-
ed, 'Show Map' will show the map display centered around the first waypoint in
the active route.
Setup Plan— displays a trip planning screen, allowing you to plan and review
distance, fuel, time en route and sunrise/sunset information for the selected route.
To use the trip planning features:
1. Highlight 'Setup Plan' and press ENTER. The trip planning screen is displayed, show-
ing speed, fuel flow, departure time and departure date information.
2. Enter an hourly fuel flow (if desired) in the fuel field, using the same steps above. Fuel
flow rate units (gallons, liters, etc.) are not specified on the GPS III. Enter these figures
based upon available information for your vehicle and make note of the desired units.
3. Press QUIT to return to the Route Plan Page, then use the LEFT/RIGHT keys on the
rocker keypad to review the planning information.
Re-evaluate— reactivates the current route and selects the route leg closest to
your current position as the active leg. The active leg defines the current 'from'
and 'to' waypoints.
