Changing between pages and zooming the map in and out are not the only functions of the
keypad. The keypad is also used for finding and entering information.
There are street addresses, points of interest, and city names to find. Personal Waypoints and
Routes to give meaningful names to, and menu options to select. Most of these operations can be
accomplished using the ROCKER keypad and the ENTER key.
The "Current Time" and "Arrival Time" readouts on your StreetPilot unit may need to be
adjusted for your local time zone. The following is an example of a typical keypad entry.
Selecting from a list to set the time zone:
1. Press OPTION twice to select the System Setup Page.
2. If the cursor is not on one of the file tabs at the top of the page, use the UP area of the
ROCKER keypad to highlight a file tab.
3. Use the LEFT or RIGHT area of the ROCKER keypad to select the "Time" file tab.
4. Use the DOWN area of the ROCKER keypad to highlight the "Time Zone" field (top left picture).
5. Press ENTER to select from eight U.S. Time Zones or "Other" if not in one of these zones.
6. Use the UP, DOWN, LEFT, and RIGHT areas of the ROCKER keypad to select the appropriate
time zone.
7. If you chose "Other" a UTC Offset field will appear adjacent to the Time Zone. You must enter
the appropriate UTC (Universal Time Coordinate) Offset value. Determine your longitude by
observing the lat/lon field above the map on the Map Page, then refer to the Time Offset Chart
in Appendix G, page 72. Use UP and DOWN to enter the offset numbers, then LEFT and RIGHT
to move to the next character slot.
8. Press ENTER to accept the entry. The 'Current Time' field should now display the correct time.
