Navigating to a Destination

Using the Nav Key

The NAV key provides three ways to navigate to a destination: Go

To Point, Follow Route, and Follow Track (TracBack). When you

are actively navigating, you see a straight line that runs from your

current location to the destination. The Go To option is the easiest

method for selecting a destination. A Go To allows you to select a

destination point and quickly set a direct course from your present

location. If you have a point highlighted on a list or the map or

if you are already navigating to a point, Go To

appears in addition to Go To Point. The Go To function can be

accessed from any list of points or graphically from the map.
