Garmin GPSMAP 190-00683-00 - Manual (Page 11)

Turning On the GPSMAP 378/478
Before you turn on the GPSMAP 378/478, be sure the antenna is up
as shown on page 1, and it has a clear and unobstructed view of the
sky to receive satellite signals.
The first time you turn on your GPSMAP 378/478, the GPS receiver
must collect satellite data and establish its current location. To
ensure proper initialization, the GPSMAP 378/478 is shipped from
the factory in AutoLocate Mode, which allows the receiver to “find
itself” anywhere in the world.
To turn the GPSMAP 378/478 on and off:
1. Press and hold the POWER key. When the unit turns on, a
tone sounds and the Warning Page opens.
