Creating Routes

The GPSMAP 496 lets you create and store up to 50 reversible

routes, with up to 300 waypoints each.

Routes can be created in two ways. The rst way is to select

waypoints from the Find Menu, allowing you to see a list of the

route points as you create the route. The second way is by selecting

waypoints or map items from the Map Page, allowing you to see

each route point graphically on-screen as you create the route.

Route Tab

To create a route using the Find Menu:

1. Press MENU twice to show the Main Menu.

2. Use the ROCKER to highlight Route from the vertical list

of tabs.

3. Press MENU to show the Route options menu. Select New

Route, and press ENTER.

Highlight the rst available blank route slot and press ENTER.

The Route Review Page automatically opens, showing a

blank route.

4. Press ENTER to nd items to add to the route.

5. The Find Page or Find Menu opens (based on which Usage

Mode you are in). Using the methods discussed in the

“Finding an Item” section beginning on page 53, select a point

to add to your route. When you nd an item, highlight OK, and

press ENTER to add the point to the route. Repeat until you

have added all of the points to the route.
