Getting Started
Deleting Waypoints/
Powering Off Unit
To get a basic feel for how the Main Menu page works, let’s delete the two waypoints you created
during the simulated tour. This will ensure that you have a clean slate once you start navigating in
your home waters.
To select the Points (Waypoint) submenu tab:
1. Use the ARROW KEYPAD to highlight the ‘Points’ menu tab. You will see a list of stored waypoints
appear to the right of the Main Menu list.
2. Press to the right one time on the ARROW KEYPAD and you will see the ‘User’ tab highlighted.
3. Press down on the ARROW KEYPAD until waypoint 001 with the shipwreck symbol is highlighted.
4. You may delete the waypoint by either pressing MENU, then highlighting ‘Delete Waypoint’ or press
ENTER/MARK and then highlight ‘Delete’ from the Waypoint Edit page.
5. Press ENTER/MARK to delete the waypoint, then ENTER/MARK again to confirm. Repeat the
above steps to delete the ‘Dock’ waypoint also.
Congratulations! You’ve now gone through the basic operation of the Garmin GPSMAP 182/
182C/232. Your new digital chartplotter is a powerful tool with many advanced features not covered
in the Getting Started tour. For detailed instructions on using these features or performing a specific
task, please refer to the Quick Reference Guide or the appropriate reference section of this manual.
If equipped with GSD 20, refer to the “GSD 20 Sounder Module with Garmin Chartplotters” (190-
00241-03) for sonar operations. The unit is still in Simulator mode for practice, but will automatically
return to it’s ‘Normal’ operation mode when you shut it off and turn it back on.
To turn the GPSMAP 182/182C/232 off:
1. Press and hold the POWER key for about 2 seconds, until the screen is blank.
2. When the screen is blank, release the POWER key.
The next section of the manual describes the pages and functions of the GPSMAP 182/182C/232 in
detail. If you are unable to locate a specific option or function, please refer to the index on pages 90-92.
