BASIC OPERATION > STARTING TO NAVIGATE DESTINATION Current Track 45° Bearing 000° from START to DESTINATION START Bearing 340° from current location to DESTINATION The GPS provides a straight line, direct navigation course to your destination. Since it is not always possible to follow a straight line from start to finish, as you move, the Pointer always points toward your destination and the Compass Ring always shows your current track. 20 Starting to Navigate With the unit on and displaying 3D GPS Location on the GPS Information page, mark a waypoint at your current location. Name this waypoint HOME, assign the Residence Symbol, and store the waypoint. Before starting to navigate, let's clear the Track Log. The Track Log is the bread crumb trail left on the Map page and Highway page. To clear the Track Log: 1. Press MENU twice to display the Main Menu. 2. Highlight TRACKS then press the ENTER key. 3. Highlight CLEAR, then press ENTER. 4. Highlight the YES button then press ENTER. 4. Press PAGE until the Map page is displayed. Begin walking holding the GPSMAP 76 in front of you with the top of the unit pointed toward the sky. As you move, you see that the unit leaves a bread crumb trail on the map indicating where you have been. Walk at least a two minutes in one direction and then make either a right or left turn. Continue walking in this new direction for approximately another two minutes. GPSMAP 76 Owner's Manual
