Introduction
The eTrex Summit is a six ounce, 12 channel, hand
held GPS receiver. It has a built-in GPS antenna and only
fi ve user-Buttons. All Buttons are located on either side of
the unit, allowing for simple, one-handed operation that
won’t obstruct your view of the display. It runs for up to
22 hours on two AA batteries in battery save mode.
The eTrex Summit contains a full function GPS, elec-
tronic compass and barometric altimeter. The eTrex
Summit will track barometric pressure and altitude
changes, providing data never before available in such
a small package. Using the built in compass, the eTrex
Summit will provide you with a reliable heading even
while standing still. When moving, the eTrex Summit
will provide you with more data, including speed, direc-
tion of movement, time, distance to destination, and
more.
From these basic features, your eTrex Summit can
provide one more critical benefi t; peace of mind, because,
with the combination of these technologies you’ll know
where you are, where you’ve been and where you’re
going. And since you’ll always know the way back home,
you can concentrate on what you set out to do and enjoy
the great outdoors.
Other features include:
Waypoints:
500 with name and graphic symbol.
Tracks:
Automatic track log; 10 saved tracks.
Routes:
20 Routes that let you navigate through a set
of 50 waypoints.
Trip Computer:
Current speed, average speed, maxi-
mum speed, bearing, elevation, location, time of sunrise/
sunset, trip timer and trip odometer.
Elevation Computer:
Total ascent, total descent,
average ascent, average descent, maximum ascent,
maximum descent, vertical speed, pressure, 12 hour
pressure trend, maximum elevation, and minimum ele-
vation.
NOTE: You should always
be prepared and capable of
navigating without the eTrex
Summit. It is designed to aug-
ment other forms of basic nav-
igation, not entirely replace
them.

Getting Started
The Getting Started Section introduces you to the
basic operation of the eTrex Summit. The Reference Sec-
tion shows you how to use all of eTrex Summit’s remain-
ing features.
The First Step
The eTrex Summit’s GPS operates using information
gathered from satellites. To Initialize the eTrex Summit’s
GPS receiver the fi rst time, take your eTrex Summit out-
side and fi nd a large, open area that has a clear view of
the sky. Press and hold the POWER Button to turn the
unit on. You’ll see the Welcome Page for a few seconds
while the eTrex Summit performs a self-test, followed by
the SkyView Page.
NOTE: When you use the eTrex Summit for the
fi rst time, it will take up to fi ve minutes to fi nd
your location. After the fi rst use, eTrex Summit
only needs about 15 to 45 seconds to fi nd your
location.
The eTrex Summit needs to receive at least three
strong satellite signals to fi nd your location. The SkyView
Page shows you graphically eTrex Summit tracking satel-
lites, and the strength of the satellite signals. The status is
also displayed at the top of the page.
When you see the “READY TO NAVIGATE” message
in the status box, eTrex Summit has found your location
and the GPS receiver is initialize and ready for use.
Backlighting and Contrast
If the lighting conditions make it hard for you to see
the screen, adjust the contrast or turn on the backlight.
Press and release the POWER Button from any screen to
turn on the backlight. The backlight is timed to stay on
for 30 seconds. To adjust the screen contrast, press the
PAGE Button until you see The SkyView Page. Press the
UP Button to make the screen darker, press the DOWN
Button to make the screen lighter.
The SkyView Page
The “READY TO NAVIGATE”
message must appear before
you can begin using your eTrex
Summit to navigate.

Getting Started
Calibrating the Electronic Compass
The eTrex Summit’s Electronic Compass needs to be
calibrated outdoors after the batteries have been changed
before using the unit for navigation. Failure to calibrate
the Electronic Compass can result in gross inaccuracy of
the compass feature.
Compass Calibration:
1. Press the PAGE Button until the MENU Page is
displayed.
2. Using the UP or DOWN Button, highlight ‘Calibrate’
and press the ENTER Button.
3. Using the UP or DOWN Button, highlight ‘Compass’
and press the ENTER Button.
4. With ‘Start’ highlighted, press the ENTER Button to
begin the calibration.
5. Making sure that the unit is level, rotate the eTrex
Summit slowly two turns in the same direction. On
the display there will be a speed scale that indicates
whether you are rotating the unit ‘Too Fast’, ‘Too
Slow’ or ‘Just Right’. A message will be displayed
when the compass has been successfully calibrated.
NOTE: The eTrex Summit needs to be level
during compass calibration and use. If the unit
is tilted on either axis the compass feature will
become less accurate.
F
The Speed Scale indicates whether
you are ‘TOO SLOW’, ‘JUST
RIGHT’ or ‘TOO FAST’.
Helpful Compass Tips
1. The Electronic Compass will
need to be recalibrated out-
doors every time the batter-
ies are changed.
2. The Electronic Compass will
not be accurate when used in
a car or around items that
radiate a magnetic fi eld.
3. When using the compass, hold
the unit as level as possible.
The more that the unit is tilted,
the less accurate the compass
will become.

Getting Started
Selecting a Page
All of the information needed to operate the eTrex
Summit is found on fi ve main “pages” (or display screens).
These pages are The SkyView, Map, Pointer, Elevation and
Menu. Simply press the PAGE Button to switch between
pages.
SkyView Page Basics
The SkyView Page displays the eTrex Summit’s
receiver status. It also shows the strength of the satellite
signals that are being received. If the signals are weak you
may need to try a different location for better reception.
The shorter the signal strength bar, the weaker the signals.
At the top of the page the unit displays the status of the
receiver. The eTrex Summit displays the message ‘Ready
to Navigate’ when the receiver has gathered enough satel-
lite information to begin navigation.

Getting Started
Map Page Basics
The Map Page
The Map Page shows where you are (the animated
fi gure) and provides a picture of where you are going.
As you travel, the animated fi gure “walks” and leaves
a “breadcrumb trail” known as a Track Log. Waypoint
names and symbols are also shown on the map.
To help you better visualize the “real world”, eTrex
Summit automatically rotates the map as you move, so
that waypoints that are ahead of you are always displayed
in front of the animated fi gure. In the upper left corner of
the screen, the Map Orientation is displayed.
To make sure you can see your entire trip, the map
scale can be changed from 200 feet to 800 miles. To
increase the map scale, press the UP Button. This will let
you view a larger area in less detail. To decrease the map
scale, press the DOWN Button. This will show a smaller

through different trip data.
Pointer Page Basics
The Pointer Page helps guide you to a destination.
When you’re moving towards a specifi c destination,
the Pointer Page shows you the name of the location,
the distance, time to go and displays a direction arrow
in the Compass Ring. To navigate, simply follow the
arrow. If the arrow is pointing right, turn right until
the arrow is pointing directly ahead and you will arrive
at your destination.
The Compass Ring refl ects your heading (direction
of movement). The eTrex Summit will automatically
select the correct sensor for you based on your speed.
By pressing the UP or DOWN Buttons, you can
cycle through other trip computer information such
as average speed, maximum speed, bearing, lat/lon,
elevation, time of sunrise/sunset, trip timer and trip
odometer.
