About the Waypoint Feature

The Waypoint feature is a feature that allows you to return to the location (base point) registered in advance from your
current location. You can check the direction of the base point and the linear distance. You can also change the range
(maximum value) for the linear distance displayed in three stages.
For example, when using the Waypoint feature when you're on holiday to register your hotel as the base point (1) and
returning to the hotel from a tourist spot (2) near the hotel, you can check the direction to the hotel (3) and the linear
distance (4).
Note:
❏ Use the Waypoint feature in a location suitable for receiving GPS satellite signals.
"Locations Suitable for Receiving Signals from GPS Satellites" on page 35

When using the watch in a location where it is hard to receive signals from GPS satellites, it may not be possible to
measure the exact linear distance and direction to the base point.
❏ The Waypoint feature differs from the general navigation feature. You cannot set the base point using maps, addresses,
and so on. Also, it cannot guide you along routes.
❏ You can change the range (maximum value) for the linear distance displayed in three stages. Set the Distance Range
according to the distance to the base point. You can check the distance to the base point up to a maximum of 990 km.
