Creating and Using Routes
Route navigation allows you to create a sequence of 
intermediate waypoints that lead you to your final 
destination. The GPSMAP 76CSx lets you store 50 
routes with up to 250 points each.
Creating a Route
You can create or modify a route using the Routes 
Page, and you can add waypoints to a route from 
the Find Menu. You can create more complex routes  
using a PC and MapSource mapping programs and 
then transfer them to the unit memory. Auto-Routes, 
which are generated when you select Go To for a 
Find item, map item, or waypoint, cannot be saved. 
Saved routes with more than 50 waypoints cannot be 
navigated using the Follow Roads option.
To create a route:
1.  Press 
MENU twice to open the Main Menu.
2.  Highlight the 
Routes icon, and press ENTER 
to open the Routes Page. 
3.  Use 
ROCKER to highlight the New button, and
