Garmin 172 GPS Receiver User Manual


 
Active Route Page
Whenever you have activated a route in the GPSMAP 172/172C, the Active Route page shows each
point (waypoint or map item) of the active route, with the point name, distance and choice of Course,
ETA, Fuel to point, Leg Distance, Leg Fuel, Leg Time, Sunrise and Sunset at point location, or Time
To point for each point from your present position. The current destination point, the ‘active’ point, is
marked with an arrow icon. As you navigate a route, the point list automatically updates to indicate the
next ‘active’ point first. The Active Route and Route Review pages share many of the same features and
options.
