Entering Coordinates

If you know the geographic coordinates

of your destination, you can use your

nüvi to navigate to your destination

using the latitude and longitude

coordinates (or other coordinate

formats). This can be especially helpful

when geocaching. For information about

geocaching, see

pages 33–34
