This chart is provided to help you determine the standard time offset settings for your current
location in order to set the correct time on the Time Setup Page. To change the UTC (Universal Time
Coordinate) Offset, if necessary, press the
OPTION
key to access the Options Menu. Then scroll down
to the System Setup option, press
ENTER
to access and then tab over to the ‘Time’ page. Highlight the
UTC Offset field and press
ENTER
to enter the appropriate offset value from the chart below using the
UP
or
DOWN
areas of the
ROCKER
kepad . To determine your longitudinal zone, press
MARK
to
mark your position select ‘Show Lat/Lon’ from the options menu and observe the longitude value. It
should fall between one of the sets of values on the chart.
To determine your longitudinal zone: press the
MARK key to mark a waypoint and observe the
longitudinal coordinates by selecting “Show Lat/
Lon” from the options menu.
Match it to a set of values on the chart to the
right and select the Offset value to be entered
in the UTC Offset field on the Time tab of the
System Setup menu.
Because Time Zone boundaries do not always follow vertical longitudinal lines you may, on
occasion, need to adjust the offset by one value in either direction.
