The radar picture appears in orange and overlays the Navigation chart. Touch the and
buttons to zoom in and out. Zooming while panning the map only affects the zoom scale of the

affects the zoom scale of the map and the radar range.

of options you can access, radar or chart. The radar setup options are the same as the radar cruising
screen (page 45). Touch Adjust Chart > Chart Setup to access the chart options. The chart options
are the same as the Navigation chart (page 5). Touch Radar Setup to access the radar setup options.
