Thanks, I've had a look on YouTube and there are indeed a few useful videos but really in the age of smartphones and touchscreens this particular Garmin device is something of a dinosaur and reminds me of devices from the distant past which seemed impressive to us at the time but now we look back and just laugh!!

The only advantages of it are that its battery lasts quite a long time, it's waterproof and it's rugged

For when you really need an accurate position either on the hills or at sea a
dedicated GPS device always trumps a 'smartphone' especially with the extended
battery life and being built for the outdoors rather than posing down the pub.

Surprised you have a problem using one. The manuals were often not much more
than a menu tree, the options fairly self explanatory.

I've still got (and use) a Garmin Geko 201 that's working fine at around 15
years old, a really basic 12 channel GPS with a four button interface and a
screen with not much more resolution than a mobile from that era.
