recommended that you save your Routes, Tracks and Waypoints that you have created.

You will enter in the File manager, now you can save, load and delete your user data in a special
database file. To Refresh or Initialize the FileManager press MENU, select one of the two options and
press ENTER. The unit automatically initializes the card in case there is no database file. Selecting
Initialize the navigator will just create a new databse file deleting the old one. No other file will be
touched by this procedure.
Note
The Initialization creates a new database file removing all the data stored in the card in case the database file is
already present.
To save user files press ZOOM IN. Edit the name (up to 8 characters) using the left/right cursor
key to select the character to be changed and then up/down cursor key to scroll to the desired

warning box will appear asking you to confirm the deleting of the file. Press ‘ENTER’ to confirm
or ‘CLEAR’ to cancel. Wait for the STATUS tag at the top of the page to return “Idle”.The function
will save all user data of the selecte type at the moment on the navigator. Multiple saves won’t be
necessary in case of multiple data. (ex. in case there are 500 waypoints in the navigator, an unique
save sill store all of them in an unique file).
After a RAM clear or a software update you can reload previously saved data. To load user files use
the up/down cursor key to scroll to the desired data and press ENTER. A warning box will appear
asking you to confirm the loading of the file. Press ‘ENTER’ to confirm or ‘CLEAR’ to cancel.
