Route guidance Select Menu > Applications > Location and GPS data > Navigation. Start the route guidance outdoors. If started indoors, the GPS receiver may not receive the necessary information from the satellites. Route guidance is designed to show the straightest route and the shortest distance to the destination, measured in a straight line.

Route guidance is active only when you move. To set your trip destination, select Options > Set destination and a landmark as the destination, or enter the latitude and longitude coordinates. To clear the destination set for your trip, select Stop navigation. To save your current location as a landmark, select Options > Save position.
