Using the Course Pointer or Bearing 
Pointer
The Bearing Pointer and Course Pointer work 
independently of each other. One indicates the 
direction to your destination, and the other indicates 
your relationship to a course line leading to the 
destination.
If the Bearing Pointer arrow is pointing straight 
up, for example, you are going directly to your 
destination. If it points any direction other than up, 
turn toward that direction until the arrow is pointing 
up and then continue in that direction. The Bearing 
Pointer always points to the destination, regardless of 
the direction you are moving. 
The Bearing Pointer always indicates the direction 
to your destination from your current location.
The Course Pointer points in the direction of your 
destination, and you drift away from the line of travel

Course Deviation Indicator (arrow with horizontal 
dotted line) provides graphic indication of drift (right 
or left) according to the scale shown at the edge of the 
compass ring. Move to the right or left to get back on 
course. This is most efficient if you are navigating on
