Going To A Waypoint - Garmin GPS III A Owner's Manual

Once you've stored a waypoint in memory, you can use the GPS III to guide you
to it by using the GOTO feature. A GOTO is really nothing more than a straight-line
course from your present position to the destination you've selected. A GOTO can be
performed several ways: by specifying the destination from the GOTO Page, graphi-
cally from the map display or by highlighting the waypoint name on any page (such
as the Nearest Waypoints List).
To select a GOTO destination from the GOTO Page:
1. Press GOTO. This captures your current position as the starting point for your trip.
2. Highlight the 'All' tab, using the rocker keypad, to list all waypoints currently stored in
memory.
3. Highlight the desired waypoint, using the rocker keypad, and press ENTER.
To select a GOTO destination from the Map Page:
1. With the Map Page displayed, use the rocker keypad to place the cursor over the
desired destination waypoint. (If no waypoint exists at the destination location, the GPS
III Pilot will automatically create one, named 'MAP' in the step below.)
2. Press GOTO, and then ENTER to navigate to the selected location.
To GOTO a listed waypoint on the Nearest Waypoints List:
1. With the Nearest Waypoints List displayed (see page 48), use the rocker keypad to
highlight the desired waypoint.
2. Press GOTO, and then ENTER to navigate to the selected location.
Once the GOTO destination is selected, use the Map Page, Compass Page and/or
Highway Page to keep track of your progress as you head toward your destination.
