destination, your route is marked with a

magenta line on the map.

The handheld device has a 3-axis

compass. You can use a bearing pointer

or a course pointer to navigate to your

destination.

Calibrate the electronic compass

outdoors. To improve heading accuracy,

do not stand near objects that influence

magnetic fields, such as vehicles,

buildings, and overhead power lines.

You should calibrate the compass after

moving long distances, experiencing

temperature changes, or removing the

battery.

Select 

 > Compass >   >

Calibrate Compass > Start.

Follow the on-screen instructions.

When navigating to a destination, the 

bearing pointer points to your destination,

regardless of the direction you are

moving.

While navigating to a destination,

select 

 > Compass.

Turn until   points toward the top of

the compass, and continue moving in

that direction to the destination.

are no major obstacles in your path. It

also helps you avoid hazards to either

side of the course, such as shoals or

submerged rocks.
To enable the course pointer, from the

compass, select   > Setup Heading >
