For the compass to work, the GPS must be moving. When you are moving,
the orange Bearing Pointer points toward your destination, while the Compass
Ring reflects the direction you are traveling by a red vertical line at the top
of the Compass Ring. When you are headed directly toward your destination,
the Bearing Pointer points toward the top of the screen, aligned with the red
vertical line at the top of the Compass Ring. If you are not heading toward
your destination, the Bearing Pointer turns, continuing to point toward your
destination. To head toward your destination, turn until the Bearing Pointer is
aligned with the red vertical line in the Compass Ring.
Along the right side of the screen are the default data fields; the top field is speed.
Also shown are the distance to your waypoint (DIST NEXT) and estimated time
en route (ETE NEXT). The distance and en route time decrease as you near your
destination.
The Bearing Pointer or Compass Ring may point in various directions when
you are stationary or at very low speeds. When you start moving, the pointer is
correct.
You can customize the Compass Page to show other functions and different sizes
or types of Digital Data fields. See "Configuring Main Pages" on
more information.

3D Highway Page

The 3D Highway Page provides 3-D graphic steering guidance to a destination
waypoint, placing greater emphasis on the straight-line course, and the distance
and direction you are off course. As you head toward your destination, the middle
of the screen guides you to a waypoint on a highway. Your present location is
at the bottom-center of the 3D Highway Page. Three-dimensional cartography
provides situational awareness while navigating. The line down the middle of the
highway represents your course.

your progress to the waypoint and which direction you should steer to stay on
course. If you are navigating a route, the 3D Highway Page shows each route
waypoint in sequence connected by a magenta "road" with a line down the
