Find Key The FIND key allows you to search the unit for user waypoints, map items, and any optional BlueChart or MapSource information loaded on a data card. Press the FIND key to search for items from your current location by default. You may also search from other locations. When you press FIND, a list of available items to search for appears. The default items are Waypoints, Cities, Tide Stations, and Transportation. Additional items, such as Anchorages, Businesses, Exits, Navaids, Restricted Areas, Wrecks, Obstructions, etc., are displayed depending on the optional BlueChart or MapSource data card inserted into the unit. If you pan around on the Map Page and press FIND, the unit centers its search from the point where the cursor is located.

Once the search results list is displayed for a particular item, press MENU. 2. Highlight 'Nearest to Other' and press ENTER. If you are actively following a route, you may also choose 'Nearest to Next' or 'Nearest to Destination'. 3. Select a reference point on the map and press ENTER. The search results list changes to list items nearest to the new map position. To find a waypoint or item from another location on the map: 1. From the Map Page, use the ARROW KEYPAD to pan to the desired location and press FIND. 2. Using the ARROW KEYPAD, highlight the desired category from the list and press ENTER.
