Methods of navigating to a destination

• If you select the Go To button on the Waypoint

Page or other Find Menu items, the GPSMAP

60Cx creates a straight path (point to point)

from your current location to that location.

• If you select the Navigate button on a Route

Page, the unit creates a route composed of

several user waypoints or Find items, with

the last being your destination. It navigates

directly from point to point. Before each turn

in the route, a page shows a guidance message

and graphic of the turn. You can view the turns

at any time by pressing up or down on the

ROCKER while the route is active.

• Selecting the Follow Roads option on the

Routing Setup Page allow both Go To

navigation and point to point routing to

navigate using roads.

Routes use existing roadways to automatically

calculate a route to your destination. Turns on

roadways are added to the Active Route Page

and are preceded by a guidance message with

a graphic of the turn. If there are not enough

roads at your location to calculate a route, a

message to that effect appears.

Navigating a Route

After you create a route, you can begin navigation

immediately or save it to the Saved Routes list.

To navigate a saved route:

1. Press

MENU twice to open the Main Menu.

2. Highlight the

Routes icon, and press ENTER

to open the Routes Page.

3. Highlight a saved route, and press

ENTER to

open the Route Page.

4. Highlight the

Navigate button, and press

ENTER.

5. To stop navigating, press

MENU, select Stop

Navigation, and press ENTER.

Using the Follow Roads option on the Routing Setup

Page increases the number of turns and shows an

Active Route Page with a list of turns. If you selected

the Off Road option, you can view only the list of

points for a route from the Active Route Page. See

Routing Setup on

page 60
