Main Menu Page
System Page
The System Setup Page allows you to change GPS
operation modes, use the WAAS capabilities, and turn the
Message Beep on or off and choose the battery type.
The Option Menu allows you restore defaults or
display the current version of unit operating software and
the Unit I.D. Number. Software updates and instructions
for downloading are available from the Garmin web site
(www.Garmin.com).
Choose one of the four GPS options other than
‘Normal’ to signifi cantly save battery power. The ‘Battery
Saver’ mode reduces the rate of satellite signal posi-

navigation.
