How To Select Options and Enter Data

Before moving ahead into the features of the GPSMAP 182/182C/232, you will need to learn basic

operations. You can select and activate options and enter data to customize the GPSMAP 182/182C/
232 to fit your requirements. You can use the ENTER/MARK key and ARROW KEYPAD to select
options, enter names and numbers in data fields, and activate your selections.

To select and activate an optional feature:

1. With any page displayed, press the MENU key to pop-up the options menu. The options menu will

display a list of optional features which are specific for that particular page. To select any feature on
the list of options requires movement of the cursor, which is identified as highlighting, selecting or
choosing an item in a list or a field (box) on a page.

2. Use the ARROW KEYPAD to move the cursor (highlight) up and down a list or up, down, and

sideways on menus.

3. Once you have moved to the selection desired, press the ENTER/MARK key to either activate the

feature or the MENU key to pop-up a sub-menu or list of yet more feature options. Just repeat this
process to select an option from the list or press the QUIT key to return to the previous setting.

The QUIT key will move backwards through these steps or when pressed, back to the main page

you started on.

To select and activate a function button:

1. When moving about a page with function buttons, like the ‘New Map Waypoint’ page, you will

observe functions such as ‘Show Map’, ‘Delete’, and ’OK’. To activate the function, highlight the
desired button and press the ENTER/MARK key.
