Trip Computer

The Trip Computer Page provides a quick reference for the

important data you want to show in Automotive Mode. It indicates

your current speed and many helpful statistics about your trip, such

as bearing, average speed, and moving time.
You can reset the Trip Computer before beginning a trip. If you

make frequent stops, leave the GPSMAP 495 turned on to allow the

unit to accurately measure elapsed time during the trip.
