Map Auto Zoom

This receiver has an auto zoom feature that eliminates much of the but-
ton pushing that other brands of GPS receivers force you to make. It
works in conjunction with the navigation features.

First, start navigation to a waypoint. (See the waypoint section for
more information on navigating to a waypoint.) Then, with the auto
zoom mode on, the unit zooms out until the entire course shows, from
the present position to the destination waypoint. As you travel toward
the destination, the unit automatically begins zooming in — one zoom
range at a time — always keeping the destination on the screen.

To turn this feature on, from the

Map Data

This menu lets you turn the map off, if desired (which turns the map
screen into a GPS plotter) or choose another level of map detail; turn off
or on the pop-up map info boxes; or fill land areas with gray. You can
also turn on or off Map Overlays, which display latitude and longitude
grid lines or range rings on the map.
