Refer to

page 28 through 35

in the

“Aviation Mode Pages”

section

for more details about the Map Page.
The location marker (icon) that shows your travel on the Map Page

is a triangle symbol in Water and Land Modes. The GPSMAP

196 always turns on in location mode, with the last known location

centered on the map. When you press the ROCKER, the GPSMAP

196 enters pan mode, which moves the map to keep the white arrow

(map pointer) within the screen area.

In Water Mode, by default, five user-selectable data fields appear on

the right side of the screen that can be configured to show any one of

the possible data options. You can also add additional data fields to

the page or select a full screen map without data fields.
