The GPSMAP 182/232 features two different navigation pages: Compass and Highway. Whenever a
NAV, Follow Track (TracBack) or Follow Route have been activated, the GPSMAP 182/232’s Compass
Page will guide you to your destination with digital readouts and a graphic compass display, which
includes a bearing pointer. Use this page (instead of the Highway Page) when travelling at slower
speeds, when making frequent directional changes, or where straight-line navigation is not possible due
to obstructions or terrain. The middle of the page features a rotating ‘compass ring’ that shows your
course over ground (track) while you’re moving. Your present course over ground is indicated at the top
of the compass ring. A bearing pointer arrow, in the middle of the compass ring, and a bearing ‘bug’
indicator on the outside of the compass ring, indicate the direction of the destination (bearing) relative
to the course over ground. The compass ring and pointer arrow work independently to show—at a
glance—the direction of your movement and the direction to your destination. For instance, if the
arrow points up, you are going directly to the waypoint. If the arrow points any direction other than up,
turn toward the arrow until it points up, then continue in that direction.

The bearing pointer, bearing bug and/or compass ring may point in various directions
when you are stationary or at very low speeds. Once you start moving, the pointer
will be correct.
