2.3.3 Waypoint switching method
When you arrive at a waypoint on a route in the NAV mode, you can switch to the next
waypoint automatically or manually.

alarm area, the buzzer sounds for five seconds and the message "WPT WAS
CHANGED" appears.

knob) before switching to the next waypoint. For manual switching, the NAVpilot
sounds a five-second alarm when the vessel arrives at the destination waypoint. The
message "PUSH ANY KEY TO TURN." appears. Push any key. Then, the message
