Button Operation Guide:
PUSH=briefly press and release the button
HOLD=keep the button pressed down for 2 seconds
1. Twist the round battery cover on the back of the BackTrack clockwise to
open it (see photo), and insert two "AAA" alkaline or lithium batteries in the
direction marked inside the battery compartment. Replace the cover, rotating it
counterclockwise. Replace the batteries when the display's "Battery" icon indicates
low power.
2. To turn the BackTrack on,
outdoors with a clear view of the sky to ensure good quality GPS reception (e.g.;
the unit will not work well in an indoor parking garage). The BackTrack will take
a few moments to lock on to GPS satellites- the "Satellite" icon will stop flashing
when this is done and the BackTrack is ready to use (satellite lock will take longer
the first time the BackTrack is used, but be quicker on the next power on). To save
time, turn on the BackTrack at least one or two minutes before you will be marking
your first location (for example, when entering the parking lot instead of waiting
until you get out of the car and then mark where you left it).
3. To use the BackTrack as a digital compass,
select the Compass mode icon (arrow in circle). In Compass mode, an arrow points
North, and the display shows the direction you're facing in degrees (e.g. East=90
deg.). Note: the directional arrows work best in both Compass and Location
modes with the unit held horizontally or "flat" (see pg.2)
4. While standing at a location you wish to mark and return to later,
MODE/Power button to select one of the three "Location" mode icons (home, car,
star). For example, if you are out camping, you might use "home" to mark your
campground, "car" to mark where you left your vehicle or bike, and "star" to mark
a favorite scenic spot you want to find again later. If you like, think of the icons as
three "location memory slots" that you can freely use for anything you want.
Note: make sure you have GPS lock (satellite icon is not flashing)
before marking a location to ensure the BackTrack functions properly.
