EARTH MAP OPTIONS
The earth map consists of the built-in background map
of the world. To change the Earth map options, first
press the MENU key, then select the Earth Map label.
Press the right arrow key. The screen shown at right
appears.
Earth Map On/Off
The background map can be turned on or off using the
“Earth Map” menu. The earth map is the background
map that shows on the map screens. Simply highlight
the menu, then press the left arrow key to turn it off.
Text Labels
Select “Map Text” to turn all names on the map (such as Lake Tahoe or
Mississippi River) off or on. The default is “on”. Press the left arrow key to
turn them off.
Locations
Normally, text disappears as you zoom out. This
declutters the screen, making it easier to see signifi-
cant map detail. Turning “Locations” on from the earth
map menu places a dot on the screen where a text
label should be when the screen is zoomed out. The
arrows on the screen at right show two locations where,
if zoomed in, text will show.
Map Detail
The detail shown on the background map diminishes as the screen is
zoomed out. This prevents cluttering of the display, or overlapping of text
and graphics which can make it unreadable. There are two detail levels:
EARTH MAP ON
EARTH MAP OFF
