Getting Started

Main Page Sequence

First let’s take a look at the Main Display Pages as they come from the factory. There are five pages: the

Map Page, Sonar Page, Compass Page, Numbers Page, Highway Page and the Active Route Page. When the
unit is turned on the first Main Page displayed is the Map Page.

To scroll through the Main Display Pages:

1. Press the PAGE key. Each time the PAGE key is pressed the GPSMAP 2006/2010 will display the next Main

Page.

2. The QUIT key acts like the

PAGE

key in reverse. Each time the

QUIT

key is pressed, the next Main Page

will be displayed in a reverse sequence.

While learning the basic operation of the GPSMAP 2006/2010, let’s put the unit into its Simulator

Mode. The Simulator Mode is great for practicing with the unit. When the unit is in Simulator Mode,
it will not accept GPS input, but will simulate satellite navigation. When in the Simulator Mode, the
GPSMAP 2006/2010 CAN NOT be used for actual navigation.

NOTE: Do not try to navigate while using the Simulator Mode. When the GPSMAP
2006/2010 is using the built-in simulator, the unit is not accepting GPS input. The unit will,
however, simulate actual satellite navigation.
