AAA batteries (alkaline or lithium)*. Replace the cover and slide the switch back to “lock”. Change batteries when low

Remove the batteries when storing the unit longer than a few weeks.
2. HOLD (keep pressed for 2 seconds) the MODE/POWER button to turn on the BackTrack. The BackTrack is ready
to use when the Satellite icon on the display stops flashing (be sure you are outdoors with a clear view of the sky).

3. The BackTrack starts out in Compass Mode the first time you turn it on. An arrow points North, and the display shows
the direction you’re facing in degrees (e.g. East=90 degrees). The directional arrow works best in both Compass and
Location Modes with the unit held horizontally or “flat” in front of you. Return to Compass Mode anytime by pushing
the MODE/POWER button briefly until the “Compass” icon is selected again.
4. To mark a location you want to get back to, PUSH the MODE/POWER button one or more times to select one of the
three Location Mode icons (“Home”, “Car”, or “Star”) .

to save), until the distance indication changes to “0”. Note: it does not matter which direction you face when marking
the location.
6. 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 icon before marking this new spot. If you hold down MARK
with a previously used Location icon selected, you will replace that one with your current location.

MODE/POWER buttons) and the BackTrack display will indicate the direction and distance back to the most recent
location you marked. If you want to return to a different previous location, just PUSH the MODE/POWER button
to select the 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, the distance

a “figure 8” pattern a few times to re-calibrate the compass.
To use the BackTrack as a digital compass, simply PUSH the MODE/POWER until you see the arrow surrounded by the
compass scale (circle of dots/lines), and the BackTrack will again display an arrow pointing North, and the compass degrees
for the direction it’s pointed (see red arrow above).
