When starting to navigate, remember that GPS

provides you with direct, straight line navigation. It is

not always possible to navigate using the most direct

route, so the GPSMAP 76 continuously updates your

Track and Bearing, always pointing out the shortest

route to your destination.

To begin navigation:

1. Press

NAV.

2. Select

Go To Point and press eNTeR.

3. Select

Waypoints and press eNTeR.

4. Select HOME and press

eNTeR.

5. With

Goto highlighted, press eNTeR.

As you start walking, the Pointer is pointed at your

destination. As soon as you are able, turn toward the

Pointer until it is aligned with the vertical line in the

Compass Ring. As you continue walking, and approach

your HOME waypoint, a message is displayed alerting

you that you have arrived.

DESTINATION

START

When you are able to turn toward the

destination, follow the Pointer until it points

toward the top of the display and aligns

with the line in the Compass Ring. When the

Pointer and Line are aligned, your Track

and Bearing are equal and you are headed

toward your destination. When you are near

your destination, Arriving at Destination is

displayed.
