point. Step 2: a message says the waypoint has been saved (shown cen-
ter). Step 3: vehicle continues on its way; number waypoint symbol is

The Quick Save method uses the default waypoint symbol until you
edit an existing waypoint and change its symbol. After you have
changed a waypoint symbol, the unit will remember the one you

use the Reset Options command (described in Sec. 7).
