CAUTION

The Auto Guidance feature is based on electronic chart

information. That data does not ensure obstacle and bottom

clearance. Carefully compare the course to all visual sightings,

and avoid any land, shallow water, or other obstacles that may

be in your path.

When using Go To, a direct course and a corrected course may

pass over land or shallow water. Use visual sightings, and steer

to avoid land, shallow water, and other dangerous objects.

NOTE: Auto Guidance is available with premium charts, in some

areas.

Before you can navigate to a waypoint, you must create a

waypoint.

Select User Data > Waypoints.

Select a waypoint.

Select an option:

• To navigate directly to the location, select Go To.

• To create a route to the location, including turns, select

Route To.

• To use Auto Guidance, select Guide To.

Review the course indicated by the magenta line.

NOTE: When using Auto Guidance, a gray segment within

any part of the magenta line indicates that Auto Guidance

cannot calculate part of the Auto Guidance line. This is due to

the settings for minimum safe water depth and minimum safe

obstacle height.

Follow the magenta line, steering to avoid land, shallow

water, and other obstacles.
