Garmin GPS 95 XL GPS Receiver User Manual

Following completion of the tests, the
Database Page will display the effective
date, cycle and expiration date of the
database. The GPS 95 will still function
with an expired database; however, you
must exercise extreme caution and
always verify that the database
information is correct before use.
(WARNING: The accuracy of the data is
assured only if current. Pilots using an
out-of-date database do so entirely at
their own risk.)
Press ENT to approve the Database
Page.
The Satellite Bar Graph Page will be
displayed, and the GPS 95 will begin
acquiring satellites.
After a position is found (and if no keys
have been pressed), the Position Page
will be displayed and the unit is ready for
normal operation. The process of
satellite acquisition is fully automatic
and, under normal circumstances, will
take approximately 2-3 minutes to obtain
navigation information. (If the unit has
been used in the past hour, it may take
as little as 15 seconds. If the GPS 95
has been moved several hundred miles
or more since it was last used, you may
want to select AutoLocate mode to
determine your new location. Refer to
Section 8.5 for more information on
selecting AutoLocate mode.)
