To turn on the backlight, press PWR again. The unit has three backlight levels to select from. Repeatedly pressing PWR will cycle through the backlight settings and turn off the backlight.

Turn off the unit by pressing and holding the PWR key for 3 seconds.

Main Menu

The unit has a Main Menu, which contains some function commands and some setup option commands. The tutorial lessons in this section will deal only with functions, the basic commands that make the unit do something. The GPS will work fine for these lessons right out of the box with the factory default settings. But, if you want to learn about the various options, see Sec. 8, System Setup and GPS Setup Options.
