If this is not the first time you have used your receiver, or if it is the first
time but your receiver has already begun acquiring satellite signals, the
following time and date entry may not be displayed.

Input your local time. Take extra
care to input the time correctly
(to within 10 minutes),
including the AM/PM
designator.
Use the ARROW
KEYs
to change the time. Use the
UP/DOWN ARROWs to change
“AM” to “PM” if necessary. When
the time is correct, press ENTER.

Please note that if you are located in a half-hour time zone, you will
need to manually reset the time, after the receiver has taken a position
fix, by adding or subtracting one half hour. Please refer to Setup - Time
Display for directions on resetting time.

Your receiver requires just one
more piece of information and
that is the date. Use the UP/
DOWN ARROWs
and RIGHT/
LEFT ARROWs
to set the correct
date. Your display should resemble
the one shown at right. Double-
check all of the information
entered. Then, press ENTER.

If you notice that you made a mistake, press MNU, highlight SETUP, press
ENTER. Select INITIALIZE, press ENTER and start over.

Initializing With Known Coordinates

If you know your present latitude
and longitude, you may enter
them directly (instead of choosing
a geographic location from the
list). In this case, highlight ENTER
COORD
on the second page and
press ENTER. The City Reference
Chart, found in the appendix,
provides coordinates of many
major cities.
