Compass
When navigating, points to your destination, regardless of the direction you are moving. When points
toward the top of the electronic compass, you are traveling directly toward your destination. If points any
other direction, turn until it points toward the top of the compass.
Using the Compass
You can use the compass to navigate an active route.
1 Hold the device level.
2 Follow to your destination.
Course Pointer
The course pointer is most useful when you are navigating on water or where there are no major obstacles in
your path. It can also help you avoid hazards near the course, such as shoals or submerged rocks.
To enable the course pointer, from the compass, select MENU > Heading Setup > Go To Line (Pointer) > Course
(CDI).
The course pointer indicates your relationship to the course line leading to the destination. The course
deviation indicator (CDI) provides the indication of drift (right or left) from the course. The scale refers to
the distance between dots on the course deviation indicator, which tell you how far off course you are.
Navigating with Sight 'N Go
You can point the device at an object in the distance, lock in the direction, and navigate to the object.
1 Select Sight 'N Go.
2 Point the device at an object.
3 Select Lock Direction > Set Course.
4 Navigate using the compass.
