Compass Page
During active navigation, the Compass Page guides
you to your destination with a graphic compass
display and a bearing or course pointer.
When navigating, the Compass Page provides
navigation data and directions. It uses a graphic
compass ring, a bearing or course pointer, and digital
data fields to show information, such as current speed,
distance to the next point on the route, and estimated
arrival time.
The rotating compass ring indicates the direction
you are heading. The Bearing and Course Pointers
indicates the direction (bearing to or course of travel)
to your destination, relative to your current heading
direction. The compass ring, bearing pointer or course
pointer work independently to show your direction of
movement and the direction to your destination. You
can choose a Bearing Pointer or Course Pointer for
guidance. See page 54 for more information.
