It is important that you keep in mind that the "previous session" track used to return to your point
of origin will not be kept indefinitely. Only the track created up to the last Power off will be kept in
memory. It will be replaced by a new one the next time the unit is powered on.
To Cancel Backtrack
Press and hold the 9 key. You will be asked to confirm. If the
Confirm
button is pressed within 15
seconds, the
Backtrack
feature will be deactivated.
Note: On a full battery, the system will be able to Backtrack a route traveled while the device is
turned on, representing a period of several hours.
Note that the Backtrack feature is not available when traveling by vehicle. Only the last pedestrian
portion of the distance traveled after an in-vehicle session will be kept to retrace your steps.

Getting guidance to a landmark
Trek can provide guidance instructions from the current user location to a selected landmark
chosen as a destination. Guidance instructions are similar to those provided by Trek when
following a pre-established route. However, instructions to reach the destination landmark are not
recorded as routes.
Turn instructions are adjusted to pedestrian or in-vehicle navigation. Turn instructions for in-
vehicle navigation are calculated according to the "quickest route"
criteria. Routes calculated for
in-vehicle use favor highways and other streets that may not be suitable for pedestrian travel.
Turn instructions for Pedestrian navigations are intended to provide the shortest route possible.
To have Trek guide you to a landmark:
1. Press the
Go To
button .. This will take you to the list of landmarks you can use as
possible destination.
2. Use the
Left
and
Right arrows
to select the landmark of your choice. A vocal description
of each landmark is heard.
3. Press the
Confirm
button to start receiving pedestrian instructions on the direction to
take to begin your route. Press and hold the
Confirm
button for in-vehicle navigation
instructions.
Upon selecting Motorized instructions, Trek automatically switches to motorized navigation.
If you are in an open area and heading towards a landmark that is also in an open area, the Trek
will guide you in a straight line towards it. It will give you an indication of its relative distance and
heading. The Trek will inform you when you reach your landmark, but you will need to deactivate
the route manually by pressing Explore. If Trek detects that you are deviating from your path,
instructions will be automatically provided to direct you towards your selected landmark.
IMPORTANT: Effective guidance relies on the quality of the positioning (point of origin and
landmarks). Always make sure that street positions are not mapped in open areas, and that open
areas are not mapped on the street network.
You may cancel guidance instruction at any point by pressing and holding the
Go To
button or
pressing the
Explore
button
*(star)
. You will be asked to confirm. If the
Confirm
button is not
pressed, the route will remain activated.
