Timekeeping Mode time.

The Password Setting screen is for registering, changing, or deleting the password
that protects Travel Data Bank Mode data. For more information about the
password, see “Using a Password to Protect Travel Data Bank Data” .

If the full text of a data label is unable to fit on the display, the label scrolls from right
to left.

If you add text to a data label, the data label appears first when you perform the
above procedure to select it. After that, the input text scrolls on the display, without
the data label.

Some Travel Data Bank Mode characters may be difficult to read while text is
scrolling. This is caused by the spaces between the dot matrix patterns used for
characters.

See “To input data label text” below for information about inputting text.
