tery life, but aggressive power saving settings can reduce GPS ac-
curacy, particularly in demanding situations when signal availabil-
ity is less than ideal. It is up to you to decide if position accuracy or
battery consumption is the most important consideration for a par-
ticular navigation situation.

In potentially risky navigation situations, we suggest you consider the
standard operating procedure of professional cave explorers, who never
enter an undeveloped cave with fewer than three sources of light (a
main light and two backups.) Even if you do carry a couple of spare sets
of batteries, remember: a prudent navigator never depends on only one
source of navigation information. A good map and compass are impor-
tant companions for you and your iFINDER.

There is another function that will help preserve battery life when
practicing with the unit indoors. Most of the time, the unit will not be
able to find a satellite (unless you are practicing by a large window!)
After a few moments of unfruitful scanning, iFINDER will ask you if it
should stop searching for satellites or continue searching. When this
message appears, the 

 command is highlighted. To turn

off the GPS engine and save power, press
