The GPSMAP 295 features five main pages which are linked together, in series. You can quickly

cycle through these main pages—in either direction—using the 

PAGE

 and 

QUIT

 keys. Each of these

main pages is described in greater detail in the reference section of this manual.

To display the next page in the sequence, press PAGE.

To display the previous page in the sequence, press QUIT.

During normal use the GPSMAP 295 will automatically sequence from the Satellite
Status Page to the Map Page once enough satellites are received to compute a position
fix. If any keys are pressed during the process of acquiring satellites, this automatic
sequence is cancelled.
