The GPSMAP 176’s route edit mode also lets you insert a new route waypoint in any route leg using
the map cursor.
To insert a new point between two existing route waypoints:
1. Use the ARROW KEYPAD to select the leg in which you want to insert the new waypoint (the route
line will highlight and change to a dotted line when the leg is selected) and press ENTER.
2. Move the cursor to the new map position, existing waypoint, or map item (You will see ’INS’ below
the arrow and the route lines will move with the arrow.) and press ENTER.
3. If you are not inserting an existing point, press ENTER to confi rm the new waypoint.
4. Press QUIT to return to the Route Review page.
Insert Waypoint— Allows you to insert a waypoint or point from the Find Menu before a waypoint
that is highlighted on the route list, or add a point(s) onto the end of the route.
To insert a point into the route or add a point to the end:
1. On the Route Review page (or Active Route Page), use the ARROW KEYPAD to highlight the point
you wish to insert the new point before (To add a point to the end, highlight the blank fi eld at the
bottom of the list) and press MENU.
2. Highlight ‘Insert Waypoint’ or ‘Add Waypoint’ and press ENTER.
3. From the ‘Find’ menu, highlight ‘Waypoints’ and press ENTER. (You may also choose from other
points, such as Cities, Tide Stations, etc. from this list.) From either the ‘By Name’ or ‘Nearest’ tab lists,
choose the waypoint you want and press ENTER twice. (See page 24 for searching for waypoints by
spelling the name.)
Remove Waypoint— Allows you to remove a point (waypoint or map item) from a route. This option
is available from both the Route Review and Active Route Pages.
To remove a point from a route:

point to remove and press MENU.
