Map Auto Zoom
This receiver has an auto zoom feature that eliminates a lot of the
button-pushing characteristics of other brands of GPS receivers. It
works in conjunction with the navigation features.
First, start navigating to a waypoint. (See the waypoint section for
more information on navigating to a waypoint.) With auto zoom on, the
unit zooms out until the entire course shows, from the present position
to the destination waypoint.
