Getting Started
Pointer Page Basics
The Pointer Page helps guide you to a destination. When you’re navigating towards a spe-
cific destination, the Pointer Page shows you the name of your destination, the distance and
time to go, and a direction arrow in the
Compass Ring.
The Compass Ring reflects your heading (direction of movement). To navigate, walk in the
direction the arrow is pointing. When the arrow is pointing at the Moving Direction Line (top
of the Compass Ring), your destination is straight ahead.
NOTE: The eTrex is not a magnetic compass. You must be moving in order for
the unit to determine your heading.
By pressing the UP or DOWN buttons, you can cycle through the trip information dis-
played at the bottom of the Pointer Page.
