USING PLAY GOLF MODE
As you might expect, you will spend most of your time in “PLAY GOLF” mode when using the Hybrid’s GPS rangefinder section.
1. Make sure you are outdoors, with an unobstructed view of the sky. Press and hold the GOLF button (1) until the GPS display powers on.
2. With
PLAY GOLF
highlighted on the display (6), press the SELECT button (5). The GPS display will show ”
SEARCHING
” as the Hybrid looks for multiple
available GPS satellite signals and locks onto them. Once locked
(note that this can take several minutes the first time you use the Hybrid, but will be faster
when used in the same general area in the future)
, you’ll see a list of course names.
3. Use the UP/DOWN buttons to select (highlight) the course you want to play from the list of nearby courses (closest course at top of list), then press SELECT.
4. The display then shows: Current hole # (at upper left), Par for the hole (upper right), and distances to the center (large number at top center), front (lower left)
and back (lower right) of green. Press UP or DOWN buttons to manually advance to the next hole (useful for “shotgun” starts), or go back to the previous hole.
5. From this main PLAY GOLF screen, press SELECT again to view distances to up to 4 Hazard callouts per hole (varies depending on the number of significant
hazards located near the currently selected hole on this course). See “
Hazard Glossary
” for a list of all abbreviations used to designate various hazards.
6. From the Hazards screen, press the SELECT button to display the ROUND INFO screen. Here you can view the elapsed TIME OF PLAY or DISTANCE.
7. Press SELECT once again to return to the main PLAY GOLF screen.
8. To use the SHOT DISTANCE feature, press the GOLF (power) button (1) while at the tee (this is your start “point A”)-then as you walk towards your ball, the
display will update to indicate distance from point A to your current location. This is useful to measure the length of your shot. Press SHOT again to set a new
starting point (reset distance to “0”).

your round.
