Using the Map Page
The Map Page provides navigational information and
is supported by all other features. The Map Page can be
customized to display information such as map scale,
speed, direction, topographical features, distance and
time.
The Map Page shows your movement using a real-
time track log (an electronic bread crumb trail that
appears directly on the map as you're traveling), and your
present position as a triangle icon in the center of the map.
The Map Page also shows any nearby lakes, rivers,
highways and towns.
Detailed map features as well as information about
those features can be displayed using a map cartridge
containing data downloaded from a GARMIN MapSource
CD-ROM. Refer to Appendix A for ordering information.
Use the zoom keys (IN and OUT) to adjust the map
to the desired scale.
To change the map scale:
1. Press the IN zoom key to select a smaller scale and
more detail for a smaller area.
2. Press the OUT zoom key to select a larger scale and
display a larger area.
In many cases, the map will display an 'Accuracy
Circle' surrounding the position icon defining the
accuracy of your present location according to its position
calculations. The smaller the circle the more accurate your
location.
