ECEIVER

The GPSMAP 76 needs to be initialized the first time 

the unit is used, if it has been stored several months, 

or if it has been moved over 600 miles. The Almanac 

within unit stores each satellite’s orbital data that is 

supplied in the satellite signals. The GPSMAP 76 uses 

the Almanac to know which satellites to search for 

and automatically updates each time the unit aquires 

satellites. If you do not use your GPS for several 

months or move the unit over 600 miles between 

uses, the Almanac can become “cold” and the orbital 

information is no longer valid. Your unit may have 

trouble locking on to satellite signals using a “cold” 

Almanac. If the unit is unable to receive enough 

satellite signals to determine its location and update the 

Almanac, it displays an options menu. 

1.  With fresh batteries installed, take the unit 

outside for a clear 360° view of the sky.

2.  Turn the unit on and hold it in front of you with 

the top of the unit tilted upward. Follow the 

screen prompts, pressing 

PAGE to display the 

GPS Information page.

3.  The initialization process is automatic. It should 

take the GPSMAP 76 no longer than five 

minutes to acquire enough satellite signals to 

become operational. When the unit is able to 

navigate, it displays either 2D GPS Location or 

3D GPS Location in the Receiver Status field.
