The Map Page
The GPS V features a real-time moving map to illustrate your current position and 
your intended route.  The Map Page is one of the main operating pages of the GPS V 
and you’ll likely use it more than any other page.  It graphically shows the area around 
your current location, and marks your route to a destination with a bold dark gray 
route line.  It tells you what direction to go or the direction you are traveling.  It also 
tells you your speed, the distance to the next turn, and the time and distance to the 
fi nal destination.  If the GPS V has not yet determined your current location, there is a 
fl ashing question mark over the vehicle symbol and the status text displays, “Acquiring 
Satellites.”
The map display shows your present position and direction of movement using a 
triangular vehicle symbol in the center of the map.  The map display also shows the 
map scale and geographic details such as lakes, rivers, highways, and towns.  You can 
use the IN and OUT keys to change the map scale to show more map area with less 
detail, or less map area with more detail.  Press and hold either key to zoom the map 
scale rapidly.  When zoomed in to very small map areas an ‘Accuracy Circle’ will appear 
around the vehicle symbol.  The accuracy circle graphically portrays the position 
accuracy on the map.
