The System Setup Page allows you to change:

GPS - Choose one of the four GPS options other than 

‘Normal’ to signifi cantly save battery power. The ‘Battery 
Saver’ mode reduces the rate of satellite signal position 
updating and the ‘Use With GPS Off’ option stops satellite 
signal reception altogether. The ‘ Demo Mode’ simulates 
navigation.

WAAS - Switch between ‘ Enabled’ and ‘Disabled’. See 

page 5 for an explanation of WAAS capabilities.

Language - Change the display to any of 6 choices.

Also shown on this page is the Amount of Memory 

Used, Power Status, Time,  Date, and Backlighting Status.

The ‘ Memory Used’ fi gure refers to the non-volatile 

memory within your unit and cannot be adjusted directly. 
Saving a number of track logs and waypoints may affect 
the percentage but normally will not cause any problems. 
The ‘Memory Used’ does not refl ect the 1 MB of memory 
storage reserverd for MapSource Points of Interest
CD-ROM.

The ‘Power Status’ icon changes from a “ battery” to 

an “electric plug” when external power is connected. The 
‘Backlight’ icon changes from a dark outline to a “bright” 
outline when you press and release the POWER button.

The Option Menu allows you restore defaults or 

display the current version of unit operating  software and 
the Unit I.D. Number.
