Scanning Waypoints
As you manually enter a waypoint’s name, the GPS
12XL’s waypoint scanning feature will automatically dis-
play the first numerical or alphabetical match of the
character you have entered to that point. This helps
eliminate the need to always enter a waypoint’s com-
plete name.

.
2. Press the left side of the keypad to clear the name
field.

Note: The GPS 12XL’s waypoint scanning feature
will offer the first waypoint that matches the character
or characters you have entered up to that point. If you
have more than one waypoint that begins with the same
letter or number, move to the next character position as
needed.
4. When you find the desired waypoint, press
