For example: if the arrowis pointing straight up, you are going directly to yourdestination. If it points any direction other than up, turntoward the arrow until it points up and then continue inthat direction. If you are using the ‘Course Pointer’ optioninstead and you drift away from the line of travel toyour destination (Course Deviation Indicator - CDI), thepointer provides graphic indication of drift (right or left)and displays the distance off course. The compass ring isaccurate only when you are moving.The Navigation Page also displays a ‘Waypoint’ fieldabove the compass or highway with the name of the nextwaypoint on your route or of your final destination. The mapcoordinates for that item as shown just below the nameAn on-screen button at the top of the page displays theOptions Menu for this page.
