Thank you for purchasing the Bushnell ONIX400 – the most advanced outdoor navigation device available today!
This device is capable of receiving both GPS Satellite and XM Satellite Radio signals in an outdoor environment.
The ONIX400 comes preloaded with a base road map of the United States and Canada including a Points of Interest
data base. The GPS receiver has the capability to receive satellite signals worldwide. The XM Satellite Radio
receiver presently only functions in the United States and Canada.
ONIX has been designed to be much simpler to operate than other handheld GPS receivers, while offering powerful
features like TruView navigation, which allows you to layer satellite photos or topographic maps right over your
trail map screen, providing a useful “real world” frame of reference
1
. And for the rst time in a handheld GPS
device, the ONIX400 lets you receive and view XM Weather data for your location right on the map-you can even
layer weather radar over a satellite photo of the area! And, you can listen to XM Radio music or news and keep an
eye on the latest sports scores or weather developments without leaving the GPS map screen
2
! As much or as little
information as you choose can all be displayed together in various combinations on the extra large 3.5” full color
LCD screen.
Easily create and store user proles that let you store your most frequently used personal setups, including satellite
photos of your favorite camping or hunting area. Bushnell’s exclusive SafeTrack™ battery conservation feature
extends your battery life while maintaining GPS contact, so you can check your current location anytime without
the restart delay typical of other GPS receivers. You will nd your ONIX to be an invaluable companion for all your
outdoor adventures. Just hit the “Hot” button to quickly see your current position, or view updated nearby weather
conditions.
Before using your new ONIX, please read the instructions contained in this manual and take time to familiarize
yourself with the unit’s operation and many great features. You may want to start near your home, by turning on
the ONIX, then pressing the MENU button to run through the six basic screens (MAP, NAV, XM Weather, XM
Radio, SAT, SET) while reading the manual section for each. After that, practice using the “Hot” button and 5-way
button to see and select from a menu of options, perhaps on the SET screen by setting a few personal preferences
for information displays. Once you begin feeling more comfortable with the controls and screens, the best way to
really learn to use your ONIX is to take it outside (right in your own neighborhood or a local park), and let it lock
onto the GPS satellite signals as you watch the SAT page (be patient, this can take 3 or 4 minutes the rst time
you use it-make sure you have a clear view of the sky and are not right next to a large building for best results),
then take a short walk and nish by using the ONIX to guide you back to your starting point (you can either mark
a waypoint at the start by clicking the center of the 5-way button twice, or just begin walking, later following the
dotted “breadcrumb” trail back). After that, you might try downloading a satellite photo of this local area, layer it on
top of the map screen, and try walking the same trail again, setting a few waypoints as you go. Continue referring
to this manual and practicing as often as necessary until you master the basics, before heading out on a hike of any
signicant length or attempting to navigate an unfamiliar area.
