a valid GPS signal, the current location will be displayed on an outdoor map or an arrow will
show the direction of the current location if it is outside the map coverage area. With an
indoor map, position the plus sign at the current location by using the touch screen or by
using the arrow keys and then pressing Enter.

on page 6-4 to the instrument.

Save/Recall Points/Map submenu key.

GPS boundaries of the displayed map) is shown as a plus sign with outdoor mapping.

the current location in relation to the displayed map.
