Quick-Start

Making Keypad Entries

Changing between pages and zooming the map in and out are not the only functions of the

keypad. The keypad is also used for finding and entering information.

There are street addresses, points of interest, and city names to find. Personal Waypoints and

Routes to give meaningful names to, and menu options to select. Most of these operations can be
accomplished using the ROCKER

keypad and the ENTER key.

The “Current Time” and “Arrival Time” readouts on your StreetPilot unit may need to be

adjusted for your local time zone. The following is an example of a typical keypad entry.

Setting the time zone:

1. Press OPTION twice to select the System Setup Page.

2. If the cursor is not on one of the file tabs at the top of the page, use the UP area of the

ROCKER keypad to highlight a file tab.

3. Use the LEFT or RIGHT area of the ROCKER keypad to select the “Time” file tab.

4. Use the DOWN area of the ROCKER keypad to highlight the “Time Zone” field (left picture).

5. Press ENTER to begin editing the time zone.

6. Use the UP, DOWN areas of the ROCKER keypad to select the appropriate time zone by

entering the appropriate Time Zone for your location.

7. If you select ‘Other’, a UTC Offset field will appear. Enter the “Time Offset” for the time zone you

are in. Use the Time Offset Chart in Appendix G to determine the offset for the logitudinal zone
you are in. Press the UP and DOWN ROCKER keypad to enter the desired number, then press
the LEFT ROCKER keypad to move to the next character slot in the field. Repeat until you have
entered the value from the chart.

8. Press ENTER to accept the entry. The ‘Current Time’ field should now display the correct time.
