Cities/Towns: Summary Cities/Towns: GoTo
Cities/Towns
When you select CITIES from the Nav Data page, you have access to the
coordinates for hundreds of cities/towns worldwide already stored in your
GPS 500’s memory. You can ask the unit to show you the "GoTo" direction
of travel to reach any city/town you select.
NOTE: A city/town is much larger than the precise location indicated by the
coordinates stored in your GPS 500. The coordinates assigned to a city/town
correspond to a location somewhere within the city/town’s limits. These
coordinates are intended only for navigation to the city/town, and not for
finding a specific location such as the "downtown", commercial area or
geographic center. A waypoint or point of interest can be used for more
precise navigation within a city/town.

From the Nav Data page, push the JOYSTICK up or down to highlight CITIES
and press the ENTER button to display the CITIES screen. Use the JOYSTICK

Highlight and select GOTO to display the Map page showing you the
direction of travel to the selected city/town. Highlight and select MAP to

functions are available whether you select GOTO or MAP.
Nearest Option Ẉ
Highlight and select NEAREST to display the 50 cities/towns nearest to your
current position, in order from the nearest to the farthest. See “Select
Options” above to get details on a selected city/town from the Nearest List.

you enter (see “Search,” page 43). Enter the name of a city/town (see
“Editing Text,” page 41). The list adjusts to show the city/town starting
with the letters you enter. Press ENTER to highlight the search city/town in
the CITIES list. See “Select Options” above to get details on a selected
