1.   Press POWER and the Light and Contrast window will appear. 

2.   Press POWER again and the user-defi ned level of backlighting will activate. You may adjust this

backlighting will be at the maximum setting. 

3.   Press ENTER/MARK or QUIT when done.

The backlight will now cycle through off, the user-defi ned, and maximum backlight levels by

The GPSMAP 162’s Status Page provides a visual reference of satellite acquisition, receiver status, 

date, time and position coordinates.  Each page of the GPSMAP 162’s system also features an options 
menu, giving you access to other functions and features related to the specifi c page you are viewing.  To 
get a feel for how the options menus work, let’s put the GPSMAP 162 into simulator mode.

1.   From the Status Page, press the MENU key. A menu of options and functions for the Status Page 

will appear.

2.   Press UP DOWN on the ARROW KEYPAD to highlight the ‘Start Simulator’ option and press 

ENTER/MARK.

3.   Press the ENTER/MARK key to confi rm the ‘Running Simulator’ message that appears at the 

bottom of the display.

Once the simulator has been started, the status fi eld at the top of the page will display a ‘Simulating 

Navigation’ status. Now you’re ready to continue the rest of the simulated tour. 

The GPSMAP 162 does not track satellites in simulator mode, and this mode should 
never be used for actual navigation.

All the waypoint and route planning done in simulator mode will still be retained in memory 

for future use.
