Using the Map Pointer
The map pointer pans away from your present location (even
outside of your current detail coverage.) As you pan past the edge
of the current Map Page, the screen actively scrolls forward to
provide continuous map coverage. An hourglass symbol appears by
the map pointer while the unit is busy drawing new map details.
As you move the map pointer, the distance and bearing from your
present location to the map pointer is shown in the data window,
along with the map pointer's location coordinates. Keep in mind
that when the map pointer is stationary, the distance and bearing
from your present position changes as your location moves. The
map pointer can also be used to view on-screen waypoint and map
item properties directly from the Map Page.

together, zoom in closer for a better view.)
2. When a waypoint or map item is selected, it is highlighted
on-screen, with the name and location shown. Press
ENTER to show details of the map item. When using
BlueChart or MapSource data, additional information tabs
appear. Use the ROCKER to highlight the individual tabs,
and show additional information and options.
