Another waypoint feature of the GPS III is the Nearest Waypoint List, which

shows up to nine nearest waypoints within 200 miles of your present position. The
Nearest Waypoint List also shows the bearing (BRG) and distance (DST) to each
nearby waypoint. The list is continuously updated as you’re moving and provides
quick access to the closest points of safety in an emergency.

To view the Nearest Waypoint List:

1. Press the MENU key twice to display the Main Menu.

2. Highlight ‘Nearest’ and press ENTER.

To view the waypoint information for a nearby waypoint:

1. Highlight the desired waypoint on the list (using the rocker keypad) and press ENTER.

To GOTO a nearby waypoint:

1. Highlight the desired waypoint from the Nearest Waypoint List and press GOTO. A

confirmation page shows the selected destination waypoint.

2. Press ENTER to confirm the selected waypoint and begin navigating.

To view the Nearest Waypoint
List, select ‘Nearest’ from the
Main Menu.

The Nearest Waypoint List
shows as many as nine nearby
waypoints, along with the
bearing and distance to each
one. To GOTO a nearby way-

point, highlight it on the list,
press GOTO and ENTER.
