anyone have a garmin gpsmap62? i just got one and in customizing it, i deleted some areas from the main menu page. i need to know how to get them back. i also need to know how to unmark a cache as found so i can go and find it.

Here’s the instructions how to do that; it takes only a minute:

However, if you choose to not do a master reset but want to find a cache that was inadvertently marked as found, there is buried in the menus “show found caches.” You could then see it and navigate to it. Can’t recall exactly where the “show found caches” option is; I’d have to play around with one to find it. I currently use an Oregon but used to use a GPSMAP62s.

Press the “Find” button…scroll to “recent finds” and press “Enter”…scroll down to the found cache…press the “Enter” button and you’re on your way.

By the way, does it do car routing, with beeps for turns like the 60 did?04/09/2014 at 9:21 pm #1975706@djwini wrote:

Power on the device and go to the main menu
Press the menu button
Select change item order
Scroll to the bottom and choose add page
Repeat step 4 until all needed icons have been added
Press menu twice to return to the main menu
*If you would like to restore defaults, after step 3, press menu and choose restore defaults. -
