location is saved to the WAYPOINT LIST as waypoint “QP01.”
Note 1: Each time a quick point is entered previous quick points having the
same numbers as newly entered ones are written over.

the screen, refer to paragraph 9.6.2.

quick waypoint is erased and the waypoint data becomes the new
destination.
