The pointer pans away from your present location (even outside 

of your current detail coverage.) As you pan past the edge of the 

current map display, the screen actively scrolls forward to provide 

continuous map coverage. An hourglass symbol appears by the 

pointer while the unit is busy drawing new map details.

Move the pointer 

over an item 

on the map to 

highlight it.

As you move the pointer, the distance and bearing from your 

present location to the pointer is displayed in the data window, 

along with the pointer’s location coordinates. Keep in mind that 

when the pointer is stationary, the distance and bearing from your 

present position changes as your location moves. The pointer can 

also be used to view on-screen waypoint and map item properties 

directly from the map display.

Pressing 

ENTER while 

highlighting a map item 

brings up additional 

details and options.

on-screen, with the name and location displayed. Press 

to show details of the map item. When in the 

BlueChart coverage area or using optional MapSource 

data, additional information tabs appear. Use the 

to highlight the individual tabs, and display additional 

information and options.
