Direct-To

The Direct-To function is used for several purposes.
Especially during approach operations, you should be
very comfortable with how this feature works. Review
the Direct-To section on page 3-31 if you need a
refresher before proceeding with approaches.

If you select a waypoint that is not one of the
waypoints already in the active flight plan, use of
Direct-To will automatically unload any active
approach if you have crossed the IAF. Use of
Direct-To also cancels parallel-track operations, if
they are in use.
