Guidance by GARMIN
It is time to let the eTrex Summit guide you back to
the waypoint we named 'HOME' using the GOTO
function. The GOTO function provides you with a
straight line navigation path to your selected destination.
To Start a GOTO:
1. Using the PAGE Button switch to the MENU Page.
2. Using the UP or DOWN Button, highlight 'WAY-
POINTS' and press ENTER. The WAYPOINTS Page
appears.
3. Using the UP or DOWN Button, select the tab
containing 'HOME' and press ENTER.
4. Using the UP or DOWN Button, select 'HOME' and
press ENTER. The Review Waypoint page appears.
5. Using the UP or DOWN Button, highlight 'GOTO',
and press ENTER.
The Compass Page appears and you're ready to begin
navigating!

Heading in the Right Direction

The eTrex Summit will guide you back to where you
started using the Pointer Page. The pointer shows the direc-
tion of the destination waypoint. Walk in the direction the
arrow is pointing until the arrow points to the top of the
compass ring. If the arrow points to the right, you need to
go to the right. If the arrow points to the left, go left. When
the arrow is pointing straight up, you are on the correct
track!
The destination name, distance to the destination and
time to reach your destination are displayed at the top of the
screen. The speed you are traveling is shown at the bottom
of the screen. Once you are getting close to your destina-
tion, eTrex Summit will give you the message "ARRIVING
DESTINATION".
