Following a Route
Before starting the route, you’ll need to decide if
you want to start at the beginning and travel for-
ward or start at the last waypoint in the route and
travel backwards (reverse) to the first waypoint.
The default is forward. To change it, press the
MENU key, then select the “PLAN/EDIT
