GPS Navigation

Using the Map Page

The Map Page is the primary navigation feature of the GPS 60. You

can use the Map Page to do the following:

• View your current location and watch your progress as you move

across the page.

• View and save points on the map (see p. 16).
• View tracks—a dotted line that represents your path (see p. 29).
• View and navigate routes (see p. 33).
Your position appears as a small triangle, called the position arrow, on

the Map Page. Your GPS 60 automatically keeps the position arrow near

the bottom center of the Map Page. If you zoom in far enough, you can

see a circle around the position arrow. This circle is called the accuracy

circle, and it represents how accurate your position is on the map. When

the circle is small, your position is very accurate.

Zooming and Panning

To zoom in or out, press the IN and OUT keys. To zoom rapidly, press

and hold the IN or OUT keys. A zoom scale appears in the lower left

corner of the Map Page. To pan the map (view other parts of the map),

press the ROCKER key to display the map panning arrow. As you move

the arrow with the ROCKER key, you can see different parts of the map.
