Garmin 3200 Reference Guide

This antenna is designed to 

best receive satellite signals when it 
is aligned parallel with the horizon.   
If the antenna is positioned verti-
cally, the iQue’s ability to receive 
satellites may be dramatically 
reduced.

Setting up and Customizing your iQue 3200

You may customize your iQue 3200 to fit your needs, such as assign-

ing applications to open with certain buttons on the unit.    

Initializing the GPS Receiver

The GPS Receiver must be turned on and initialized (given an op-

portunity to determine its location) before you can begin using it for 
navigation.  When the unit initializes for the first time it may take as 
long as 15 minutes.  Any time you have traveled more than 600 miles 
with the GPS receiver turned off, the iQue handheld must again find its 
location by re-initializing.  The initialization time can be shortened by 
using the map to point to the general area are currently located (see the 
“Establishing a New Location” section of this guide).  

1.  Rotate the antenna located on the back of the iQue 3200 so it is 

parallel with the horizon.  This is the “On” position.  

2.  Have a clear view of the sky to receive satellite signals.  Satellite 

signals cannot pass through solid materials (except glass) or dense 
overhead tree cover.
