loaded onto your Active 12 and "Activated" the
elevation graph will show you the profile of the route
ahead. A red spot will indicate your location on the

graph to the right of the spot. In general use the red
spot will lie 1/3 the way along the graph, showing a
portion of the route already travelled.
