second time to deactivate the cursor.

This manual will describe entering data using

the

K and O knobs. Experiment with them and

become efficient in entering data with the concen-
tric knobs. This will greatly reduce the amount of
time required to navigate with the GPS 155XL.

Whenever the GPS 155XL is displaying a list

of information that is too long for the display
screen, the scrolling arrow prompt will indicate
which direction to scroll to view additional infor-
mation. To scroll through a list (with the cursor
active), simply rotate the outer knob. When the
cursor in not active, use the inner knob to view
additional information.
