Creating Waypoints Graphically
Waypoints can also be quickly created with the Map
Page Arrow. When you move the cursor over a map
item, you see a highlighted description of that item.

the new waypoint.

point or map feature.

Panning Arrow’s location.
If you have highlighted a map feature, an
information page is shown after you press
ENTER. Use the ROCKER to highlight Save
and press ENTER to save the item as a
waypoint.

waypoint with the default name and symbol,
highlight OK, and press ENTER.
To change the any information on the Waypoint
Page, highlight the appropriate eld, and press
