Functional Characteristics
Battery management
When the unit is powered by the batteries, a battery-shaped
icon shown in the upper left corner of the screen displays
their charge status. The icon shows when the batteries are
being recharged, provided that the unit is on.
To increase the life of the battery charge, it is possible to set
the automatic switching off of the backlight and screen by
selecting SETUP, and then BATTERY SAVING.
If no unit's key is pressed during the time interval set, the
backlight and the screen will switch off automatically. As soon
as any key is pressed, the unit will automatically switch on
again.
Keyboard lock
To lock the keyboard, press the "+" and "-" keys simultaneously.
To restore the keyboard operation, press again the "+" and "-"
keys.

GETTING STARTED
We recommend that you use the GEONAV intuitively, since
no damage will be caused by pressing an incorrect button.
Make sure that the unit is powered,
insert a CompactFlash™ cartridge and
then press PWR.
At start-up, the last chart used will be
loaded by default. If the chart is not
found, the list of NAVIONICS charts
stored into the CompactFlash™ car-
tridge will be displayed. Select the de-
sired chart by the CURSOR key, then
confirm by pressing ENTER.
A message will warn the user that electronic nautical charts
do not replace official government charts.
Press the PWR key to turn the display backlight on and adjust
brightness by the CURSOR key; press PAGE to continue.
The Satellite window will show the configuration of the sat-
ellites in use.
As soon as the GPS receiver has obtained a valid fix (it can
take a few minutes), the boat's position and the relevant area
will be displayed at the best scale available.
The default language is English. To change the language, press
PAGE to display the menu, then select SETUP, LANGUAGE
and the desired language by the CURSOR key.
The line, or vector, starting from the boat indicates the boat's
direction, to be ignored if the boat is stationary.
The window situated in the lower part of the screen will
display the boat's speed, route and chart scale.
