degrees. (Example:   210¡, then 60¡ and then 340¡)  Headings are stored 
automatically if a map and the Outback will be used to determine the headings.

digit of the heading is displayed.  (Example: 2 for 210¡)  Then 
press ENTER.  

2)  Day and Night Navigation:  These features are designed to easily help you stay 

on course.  Your desired heading is automatically compared to your actual 
heading and the Outback alerts you when you are Ôoff-track.Õ 

3)  Automatic Return:  The Outback automatically calculates your return course 

and guides you back to your starting point.
