English Using Your Bushnell BackTrack 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, HOLD the MODE/Power button. Make sure you are 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, PUSH the MODE/Power button to 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, PUSH the 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.
