Navigate Mode functions

Navigate Mode displays directional information and tracks your
speed, distance, and altitude during an activity. While you can set
up to 10 waypoints to mark specific locations during your activity,
this mode does not operate like a compass. You must be moving for
accurate heading information.

In addition, Navigate Mode does not operate in conjunction with
the chronograph. This mode displays and automatically updates
current positional information, but does not keep time.

NOTE: Navigate Mode will not operate without the use of the

GPS-3D Sensor. If the GPS-3D Sensor is not operational,
you will receive the message: NO GPS DATA.

TO OPERATE NAVIGATE MODE

1. Press MODE until Navigate Mode appears.

2. Begin moving. The Watch automatically updates the

information displayed on the Watch.

If you stop moving the altitude and heading values freeze.

TO STORE WAYPOINTS IN NAVIGATE MODE

For Navigate Mode, you can only store waypoints. For all other
waypoints options, you must use Waypoints Mode.

For instructions on storing waypoints, refer to “To store a
waypoint” on page 39.

Navigate Mode terminology

Waypoints: A point between the beginning and ending point on a
route. Waypoints serve as landmarks during an activity that you
can use to help you find your way from your ending point back to
your beginning point.

Heading: The direction you are traveling in relation to North.
The Watch includes a numeric heading display in Navigate Mode.

NOTE: In Configure Mode, you can set your Watch to read True

North (the geographic North Pole where all longitude lines
meet) or Magnetic North (North in alignment with the
earth's magnetic field). See “Unit settings” on page 65

for more information.
