On my handheld unit, I do the following:



Menu

Menu

Tracks

Menu



That gives you the ability to reset the tracks. It may be slightly different for your unit.

It's actually on page 26 of the manual.



To select the Track submenu tab:



1. Use the ARROW KEYPAD to highlight the 'Track' menu tab. You will see the options for the track tab appear to the right of the Main Menu list.



2. Press to the right one time on the ARROW KEYPAD and you will see 'Active' highlighted.



The track log page allow you to specify whether to record a track plot, define how it is recorded and save your current track log. It also provides both an indicator of the percentage of total memory used and the individual options to save or clear the active track log.



To clear the active track log:



1) Highlight the 'Clear' option and press ENTER/MARK. A confirmation page will appear.

2) Highlight the 'OK' prompt and press ENTER/MARK to confirm.

3) Press PAGE or QUIT to return to any of the main pages.

I have a Garmin GPS and have had some Garmin depthsounders. Their customer service is excellent.
