Selecting a User-Defined Navigation Page

Once you’ve selected a GOTO destination or activated a TracBack, MOB, or

route, the GPS II will provide graphic steering guidance to the destination with one
of two navigation pages:

•The compass page (default) provides a directional pointer to the destination,

with a rotating compass display to show your direction of travel (Fig. 54a). The
compass page provides better steering guidance for car travel, hiking, or biking,
where straight-line navigation usually is not possible.

•The highway page provides a graphic highway that shows your movement rel-

ative to the desired course, with an emphasis on your crosstrack error (the dis-
tance and direction you are off course) (Fig. 54b). The highway page is well
suited for water or off-road recreation where straight-line navigation is possible.

Both pages provide a digital display of the bearing and distance to the destina-

tion, your current speed and track over the ground, and a course deviation indicator
(CDI). You can switch to either navigation page at any time.

To select either navigation page:

1. Press ENTER from the existing navigation page, and ENTER again to change the page.
