3.2.4. Time/Date

The current time is visible on the second row of the Time mode's main display.

The dual time enables you to keep track of another time, for example, another time zone while traveling. The dual time can be displayed as a shortcut on the third row of the Time mode's main display. Scroll to the dual time shortcut with STOP/BACK.

NOTE: The GPS checks and sets the correct time and date when activated if the Sync function is on. You can change the UTC time offset in the Time/Date function of the Set menu or in the PC. You must always change the dual time manually.

1.In the Set menu, scroll to Time/Date and press ENTER.

2.Scroll to either Time/Date or Dual time and press ENTER.

The hour selection is activated.

NOTE: If the time is displayed in a 12-hour format, the symbol AM or PM is displayed on the left side of the last row. For dual time, the AM/PM-symbol is displayed on the right side of the time. (For more information on the 12/24- hour format, see section 3.2.5. Units.)
