If you deviate from your route in an open area, the system will provide instructions on how to
return to your route. Guidance instructions will be given in clockwise manner.
For example, if the system notices that you are heading away from the route, you might get a
message such as:
"Off-route: Turn at 3 o'clock to come back to the route".
The Trek will provide these instructions until you return to your route, at which point it will
announce "Back on Route".
In both situations, you will always be able to use the
right arrow
to get information on upcoming
instructions to return to your route. For example: "In 50 meters, go straight".

Backtrack (retrace steps)
Backtrack is a feature that allows you to retrace your steps and return to your point of origin.
There are two Backtrack options possible.
The first option is Backtrack Current Session: This option allows you to backtrack your current
session, meaning that you can be guided from your current location back to your starting point
(after getting a GPS connection).This option is useful when you wish to return immediately upon
reaching your destination. For example, when you leave home, you start your Trek. You reach
your destination. Because you don't intend to stay very long, you leave the Trek on. In this case, if
you wish to be guided back home, you will use the Backtrack Current Session option.
To Backtrack your current session (without turning the Trek off and back on):
1. Press and hold the 9 key.
2. You will be asked if you want to backtrack your current session or your previous session.
Press
Confirm
to backtrack current session. The system will provide you with instructions
to guide you back to your point of origin. A message will inform you when you have
reached your destination.
The second option is called Backtrack Previous Session. This option allows you to backtrack your
previous session. The Trek automatically records your pedestrian travels during the last power
on/off session. This option is useful when you wish to return to your point of origin, but have shut
the Trek after reaching your destination. For example, when you leave home, you start your Trek.
You reach your destination. Because you wish to stay there for a while, you shut off your Trek.
When you decide to leave and return home, you power the Trek back on. In this case, if you wish
to be guided back home, you will use the Backtrack Previous Session option.
To Backtrack previous session (after a Power off):
1. Press and hold the 9 key.
2. You will be asked if you want to backtrack your current session or your previous session.
Press and hold
Confirm
to backtrack your previous session. The system will provide you
with instructions to guide you back to your point of origin. A message will inform you
when you have reached your destination.
