Garmin GPSMAP 276C User Manual

Creating Waypoints Using the Map
You can quickly create a waypoint using the Map page. When you
pan the map and move the arrow over a map item, you will see a
highlighted description of that item. The GPSMAP 276C uses the
map item text shown on the map as the default name and symbol for
the new waypoint.
To create a new waypoint using the Map page:
1. Press PAGE until the Map page is displayed.
2. Use the Rocker key to move the arrow to the desired map
position or map feature.
3. Press and quickly release ENTER/MARK to capture the
arrow position. Pressing and holding ENTER/MARK marks
your present position, not the arrow’s location.
If you have highlighted a map feature, an information page
appears after you press ENTER. Use the Rocker key to
highlight Save and press ENTER to save the item as a
waypoint.
