If you open the menu for choosing the tracks to show on map, the whole unit will just freeze and you need to take the battery out.

Steps to reproduce:
1) Select 'Saved Tracks'
2) Menu -> 'Show on Map'

Now the whole device freezes, while showing the tracks, where you could enable them for showing on map.

Garmin have been notified.

BTW, You do not have to remove the batteries to restart the device. You can hold the power button in for ~10 seconds to achieve the same result.

Yes, but IMHO its easier to put out the battery but pushing that button for 10 seconds.
