3.9 Routes 
Often a trip from one place to another involves several course changes, requiring a series 
of route points (waypoints) which you navigate to, one after another. The sequence of 
waypoints leading to the ultimate destination is called a route. Your unit can automatically 
advance to the next waypoint on a route, so you do not have to change the destination 
waypoint repeatedly.   
 
You can store up to 200 routes, and a route may have 35 waypoints.
