How to Operate Unit Features
The GPSMAP 96/96C unit’s advanced keypad system
is designed to allow quick, convenient selection of
navigation options and data entry. Many keys on
the keypad have dual functions, when pressed and
released they perform a primary function and when
pressed and held they perform a secondary function.
Many keys change functions when a particular
feature page is shown. When a field is selected on the
