Creating Waypoints Using The Map - Garmin GPSMAP 276C Owner's Manual

Creating Waypoints Using the Map

You can quickly create a waypoint using the Map Page. When
you pan the map and move the arrow over a map item, you see a
highlighted description of that item. The GPSMAP 276C uses the
map item text shown on the map as the default name and symbol for
the new waypoint.
To create a new waypoint using the Map Page:
1. Press PAGE until the Map Page appears.
2. Use the ROCKER to move the arrow to the map location or
map feature you want.
3. Press and quickly release ENTER/MARK to capture the
arrow location. Pressing and holding ENTER/MARK marks
your current location, not the arrow's location.
If you have highlighted a map feature, an information page
appears after you press ENTER. Highlight Save, and press
ENTER to save the map item as a waypoint. The New Map
Waypoint Page appears.
