Getting Started
Status Bar
At the top of each Main Page is a status bar, which provides informa-
tion about several GPS 60 features. A table of status bar icons and defini-
tions appears to the left.
Backlighting and Contrast
The backlight comes on so you can see the screen clearly. To turn on
the backlight, press and release the POWER key. Thereafter, each time
you press a key, the backlight turns on automatically. Keep in mind that
excessive use of backlighting can significantly drain your battery power.
You can increase the screen contrast to compensate for low backlight
levels if you wish. See p. 41 for information on changing the backlight
timeout setting.
To adjust backlighting and contrast:
1. From any page, press and release the POWER key.
2. Press the
ROCKER key up or down to increase or decrease screen
brightness.
3. Press the
ROCKER key left or right to change screen contrast. Press
QUIT to exit.
