There are three default custom setups for the internal computer of the radar (see

[Custom 2] and [Custom 3] menus to meet your navigation needs.
To activate a custom setup, press the CUSTOM key. The CUSTOM key switches be-
tween Custom 1, Custom 2 or Custom 3 each time you press the key. (Custom setup
numbers which are turned off are ignored.) The selected custom setup name is shown
at the upper-left corner. To escape from custom setup, operate any control.
