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.
