Now let’s use the GOTO feature and the Pointer Page
to travel back to our starting location.
Guidance by GARMIN
The eTrex guides you to a destination using a GOTO
(GOTO means GOing TO a destination in a direct line).
To Start a GOTO:
1. Press the PAGE Button and switch to the MENU
Page.
2. Press the UP or DOWN Button and highlight
‘WAYPOINTS’.
3. Press ENTER. The WAYPOINTS Page appears.
4. Press the UP or DOWN Button and select the tab
containing ‘HOME’ and press ENTER.
5. Press the UP or DOWN Button to select ‘HOME’
and press ENTER. The Review Waypoint page
appears.
6. Press the UP or DOWN Button to highlight the
‘GOTO’, and press ENTER.
The Compass Page appears and you’re now ready for
eTrex to guide you back to your starting location!
Heading in the Right Direction
The eTrex will guide you back to where you started us-
ing the Pointer Page. The pointer tells you the direction to
the destination. Walk in the direction the arrow is pointing
until the arrow points to the top of the compass ring. If the
arrow points to the right, you need to go to the right. If the
arrow points to the left, go left. When the arrow is pointing
straight up, you are on the correct track!
Follow the
Pointer
The pointer tells you what
direction you should move.
When the pointer is pointing
right as shown here, just move
right until the pointer is
pointing straight up and
points to the moving direction
line (see picture below).
When the pointer points
straight up as shown,
you’re on track!
