To turn on and adjust the backlighting:

1. Press POWER and the Light and Contrast window will appear.

2. Press POWER again and the user-deﬁ ned level of backlighting will activate. You may adjust this

level by pressing UP or DOWN on the ARROW KEYPAD. If you press POWER one more time, the

backlighting will be at the maximum setting.

3. Press ENTER/MARK or QUIT when done.

The backlight will now cycle through off, the user-deﬁ ned, and maximum backlight levels by

repeatedly pressing the POWER key.

Each page and the Main Menu of the GPS 152' s system also feature menu options, which gives you

access to other functions and features that relate to the screen you are viewing. To get a feel for how the

option menus work, let' s put the GPS 152 into simulator mode.

To place the GPS 152 in simulator mode:

1. From any page, press the MENU key twice. The Main Menu will appear, displaying a tab style list

of options and functions.

2. Use the ARROW KEYPAD to highlight the 'Sys' (System) tab, then press RIGHT then DOWN until

the ﬁ eld below the word 'System Mode' is highlighted and press ENTER/MARK.

3. Highlight 'Simulator' and press ENTER/MARK. Press ENTER/MARK again to conﬁ rm the 'Running

Simulator' message that appears at the bottom of the display.

Once the simulator has been started, the lower left corner will display a 'S' in a box on the main

pages to show "Simulating Navigation" status. Now you're ready to continue the rest of the simulated

tour. Keep in mind that the GPS 152 does not track satellites in simulator mode, and this

mode should never be used for actual navigation. All the waypoint and route planning done in

simulator mode will still be retained in memory for future use.
