Section 3:
Basic GPS Operations
This section addresses the unit's most basic GPS operations. The tuto-
rials presented in Sec. 3 follow a chronological order. Sec. 4, Advanced
GPS Operations, will discuss other more advanced functions and utili-
ties. Material in Sec. 4 is arranged in alphabetical order.
Before you turn on the GlobalMap and find where you are, it's a good
idea to learn about the different keys, the three Page screens and how
they all work together. BUT, if you just can't wait to get outside, turn to
the one-page Quick Reference on page 33.
