2.4 SELECTING THE USER INTERFACE LANGUAGE
It is possible to set the language to display menus, data pages, warning/alarm
messages, full/quick info, list of objects found by find/nearest function, and on charts
(such as place's names, buoy's names and so on). The default setting is Italian.
To select the language you want:
'MENU' + "BASIC SETTINGS" + 'ENTER' + "LANGUAGE" + 'ENTER'
Choose the language you prefer and press 'ENTER' to confirm.
Note
If the selected language is not available on cartographic data, English language is used instead.
WARNING !!!
If you have accidentally selected an incomprehensible language, and you don't be able to reselect your language (the
above procedure is not of help to you), follow this procedure: press 'MENU', move the cursor to highlight the third
selection (starting from the top) which corresponds to the Basic Settings menu and press 'ENTER'. Then a window
appears with "Language" message, press 'ENTER'; now select your language and press 'ENTER' again.
Anyway if you in trouble, see Chapter "System Test" for a RAM Clear operation: the chart plotter will also return
all selections, in particular language, to original default values.
