How To Select Options and Enter Data

Before moving ahead into GPSMAP 168 features, you will need to learn basic operation. You can

select and activate options and enter data to customize the GPSMAP 168 to fi t your requirements. You
can use the ENTER/MARK key and ARROW KEYPAD to select options, enter names and numbers
in data fi elds, 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 specifi c for that particular page. To select any feature on
the list of options requires movement of the cursor, which is identifi ed as highlighting, selecting or
choosing an item in a list or a fi eld (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 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 when pressed, will move backwards through each step to the main page you

started on.

button and press the ENTER/MARK key.
