Main page

Dr. Tom Chalko has set up a page that is constantly updated with the latest firmware and setup advice. This is located here:
http://mtbest.net/setting-up-navi-GT-11.htm.
This page is probably the most up to date page you'll find online when you go to set up your NAVI.

List of settings

Below is a list of settings for all the menus, just so you can go through and make sure that your NAVI is set up the right way. Note that this information might be a bit old, it's only current as of 8th March 2008. The site above is probably more up to date than the following list.
