Clearing the Track Log

After you’ve used the GPS40 for a few trips, you may

find that your map display has become a bit messy from
keeping track of your every move. To get a feel for how the
menu page works, let’s clear the track log (the plot points
left on the map page) we’ve just created during the Getting
Started tour.

1. Press 

P

or 

Q

until the menu page appears.

2. Use the

D

key to move the field highlight to the 

‘TRACKLOG’ option.

3. Press 

E

to access the track log page.

4. Press the

U

key twice to highlight the ‘CLEARLOG?’

option. The clear log confirmation page will appear.

5. Use the 

L

key to highlight the ‘Yes’ prompt.

6. Press 

E

to finish.

Turning the Receiver Off

You’ve now gone through the basic operation of your

new GPS 40 and probably know a little more than you
think about how it works. We encourage you to experiment
with the GPS 40 until it becomes an extension of your own
navigation skills. If you encounter any problems using the
unit or want to take advantage of the GPS 40’s more
advanced features, refer to the reference section.

To turn the GPS 40 off:

1. Press and hold the 

B

key for 3 seconds.

Thank you for choosing the GPS 40. We hope it will be

a valuable tool for you wherever you travel.
