3)  Turn or move the FMS Joystick to highlight the desired menu option 

(Display, Sound, Units, Date & Time, Position, Interface, Alarms, or Power), 
and press the ENT Key.

4)  Press the MENU Key.
5)  With the ‘Restore Default’  highlighted press the ENT Key.

NOTE:  The GPSMAP 695/696 retains the backlighting settings between 
power cycles.  Backlighting may have been set to a level not suitable for the 
current ambient lighting.

The large color display can be set to various brightness levels to allow for easy 

viewing in full sunlight or dimmed for night viewing.  The power button can be used to 
quickly set the backlight intensity.  By momentarily pressing the power button (when 
the unit is powered on) a window appears showing the current backlight setting.  From 
this window the backlight setting can be adjusted with the joystick knob, or a second 
momentary press of the power button changes the backlight level to full bright (10).  
This provides a display which can be read under most lighting conditions.  Once this 
method of changing the backlight to full bright has been used, the previously selected 
value is lost and the new backlight level is (10) and will remain at (10) until it is 
manually adjusted.

1)  Press the MENU Key twice to display the Main Menu.
2)  Turn or move the FMS Joystick to highlight ‘System Setup...’ and press the 

ENT Key.

3)  With ‘Display’ highlighted press the ENT Key.
