Reference
If you place the Map Pointer on a Map Feature (road, park, intersection, etc.)
the GPSMAP 76S will store that location only to the route using the feature
name as a reference. These points are not stored in the User Waypoint List. If
you would like to save a Map Feature Point as a User Waypoint, highlight the
point in the route, press ENTER, this will display an Information Page. With
the Information Page displayed, press MENU and select ‘Save as Waypoint’.
Insert Waypoint —
This will display the Points Menu (see page 40 for infor-
mation on the Points Menu). As a note, if you highlight the dashed line in the
waypoint fi eld on the Route Page and press ENTER it is the same as making
this selection. Use the Points Menu to display an Information Page, then
highlight the ‘OK’ Button and press ENTER.

a route. After you have fi nished using the map, press QUIT to display the
Route Page where you can continue entering waypoints manually.
