Using Your Bushnell BackTrack English 5. To mark the location (store it in the BackTrack's memory under your selected Location icon), HOLD the MARK button until the distance indication changes to "0". It does not matter which direction you face when marking the location (as a stored GPS location is just a point or "dot"). When you move away from that location, an arrow points the way back to the location (general direction relative to your current position), and the display shows your distance from the location. You may now turn the BackTrack's power off by HOLDing down the MODE/ Power button, or proceed to another location you want to mark. Be sure to select a different Location icon before marking this new spot, as HOLDing MARK with a previously used Location icon selected will replace that position with your current location. 6. When you're ready to return to one of your previously marked locations, turn the BackTrack back on (HOLD the MODE/Power button). The BackTrack will remember the last mode and location you used, so if the last place you marked was your car in a parking lot, the BackTrack will already be showing you the direction and distance back to your car! If you want to return to a location other than the last one you marked, just PUSH the MODE/Power button to select the Location icon you used when you marked it earlier. To find your way back to the selected location, simply move in the direction the arrow points and watch for the distance to decrease-when you reach your destination, a full circle of arrows will be seen at the outer edge of the display. Additional Features & Notes • To change the units from English to Metric, HOLD both the MARK and MODE/ Power buttons while in any of the Location modes (not Digital Compass mode)- the distance units display changes from "yd" to "m". The BackTrack will automatically switch from yards to miles (or meters to km) for longer distances. It can display up a maximum distance of 999 miles or kilometers. • PUSH MARK to turn on the display backlight at anytime. It will automatically turn off about 20 seconds later. • Power automatically turns off after 10 minutes if no buttons have been pressed, or HOLD down MODE/Power to turn off manually. When the BackTrack is turned back on, it always returns to the last mode you selected, just as you left it. • When the display shows that you are getting close to a marked location, you will often be able to just look up and see your destination at that point.
