To display waypoints, press the

You can press Next view to step through
the four available waypoint screens listed
below:
• waypoints displayed on the chart
• a list of up to 30 local waypoints, sorted
by distance (nearest first)
• a list of all waypoints, sorted
alphabetically
• a list of up to 30 local avoidance
waypoints, sorted by distance (nearest

The waypoint screen type is shown in the
upper right corner.
Waypoints on the chart screen
The WAYPOINTS CHART screen displays your
waypoints graphically. You can press the

chart, and press the OUT or IN zoom keys
to see more or less chart area.
NOTE:
If you’ve turned off the display of way-

CHART screen, you’ll only

navigation.
Waypoints on the local list
The WAYPOINTS (LOCAL) screen displays up
to 30 of the closest waypoints (within 100
nm) in order of their distance from your
present position. This list is particularly
useful for working with the waypoints in

waypoints you may be interested in at the
moment.
Waypoints on the alpha list
The WAYPOINTS (ALPHA) screen displays all
stored waypoints in alphabetical order.
Waypoints with a digit as the first char-

Those starting with a dash or parenthesis
are at the end.
Waypoints on the avoidance list
The WAYPOINTS (AVOIDANCE) screen displays

waypoints (within 100 nm) in order of
distance from your present position.
