See individual sections under "Navigation Tools" in the Owner's Manual for details and
instructions.
To assist in your navigation, your GPS receiver is already programmed with locations of
hundreds of worldwide cities; U.S. state, Canadian provincial and European country boundaries;
and U.S. interstate freeways, highways and exits. With optional computer software, interface
cable and SD Memory Card (needed for map downloading), you can access a computer
mapping database to transfer in additional mapping information that includes points of interest,
local roads and streets, intersections and addresses.

ENTER button for 2 seconds. A confirmation window will pop up.

Go for a Test Walk
To test your knowledge of the receiver basics by taking a walk around the block:
1. Load batteries per instructions and take your GPS receiver outdoors. Be sure you have a clear,
unobstructed view of the sky. Turn your unit on by pressing and holding the POWER button for
2 seconds. Allow time for your receiver to acquire satellite lock and a "fix" of your current location.
When ready the receiver will automatically switch to the Map page. (Remember, you can toggle
among the 6 main pages by pressing the PAGE button.)
2. From the Map page, experiment by selecting options per instructions. For example, you
may want to mark your current location as a waypoint, and then log a track by walking around
your neighborhood. (See diagram.) Then navigate back to your start point by accessing the
Tracks page, saving the current session, selecting the new log and then selecting "NAVIGATE" and
"Start At – End" to lead you back the way you came.
Note: When navigating back to your original start point, intentionally walk off course to familiarize
yourself with how the unit shows you where you are relative to the route or track as shown on the
Gauges page.
Keep practicing until you are comfortable using the many features of your GPS receiver. Always refer to
the Owner's Manual for more detailed instructions.

NOTE: A city is much larger than the precise
location indicated by the coordinates stored
in your GPS receiver. The coordinates
assigned to a city correspond to a location
somewhere within the city's limits. These
coordinates are intended only for navigation
to the city, and not for finding a specific
location such as the downtown, commercial
area or geographic center.
*Optional software, PC interface cable and
SD memory card required.
