Panning the Navigation Chart
Use the ROCKER on your GPSMAP 4000 series unit to move the map pointer ( ) away from
your current location and to scroll to other areas on the navigation chart. As you pan past the edge
of the current map display, the screen scrolls forward to provide continuous map coverage. Touch
and drag the Navigation screen on your GPSMAP 5000 series unit to pan away from your current
location. The position icon ( ) stays at your present location. If the position icon leaves the map
when you pan, a small window appears in the corner so that you can keep track of your current
position.
As you move the map pointer, its coordinates, distance, and bearing from your current location
appear in the upper-left corner of the map.
To pan the map, press up, down, right, or left on the ROCKER (GPSMAP 4000 series), or touch
and drag the Navigation screen (GPSMAP 5000 series).
