Turning On the GPSMAP 96/96C
The rst time you power up your new GPSMAP
96/96C, the receiver must collect satellite data and
establish its present position. To ensure proper
initialization, the GPSMAP 96/96C is shipped from
the factory in AutoLocate mode, which allows the
receiver to “nd itself” anywhere in the world. Before
you turn on the unit to start initialization, be sure
that it has a clear and unobstructed view of the sky to
receive satellite signals.
