depending on usage.
The

Maximising the Battery Life
Turn off the GPS Mode (

system
>
gps Mode
>
gps off
)
when you do not need to receive GPS
signals, or use
normal
mode when
you do not need to use WAAS or
EGNOS.
Turn the backlight brightness down
(on the Menu page, touch
).
Do not leave your c510 in direct
sunlight. Avoid prolonged exposure
to excessive heat.
About Satellite Signals
Your c510 must acquire satellite signals
to operate. If you are indoors, near tall
buildings or trees, or in a parking garage,
the c510 cannot acquire satellites.
Go outside to an area free from tall
obstructions to use your c510.
When the c510 has acquired satellite
signals, the signal strength bars on the
Menu page are green
. When it
loses satellite signals, the bars turn red or
disappear
.
