seconds. The current zone number will appear
in the display. Release the button.
2. Find your current location on the zone map.
Refer to the illustration.
3. Press the

through the zone numbers until the desired
number appears in the display. Once you
have selected a zone number, the display
will show a compass direction within a few
seconds.
