Confirm the deletion by highlighting Yes, or cancel the deletion by highlighting No. Note: If the POI selected is used in a route, you will be asked to confirm the deletion. 10. Press ENTER.

Note: Remember that pressing the NAV button will return you to the last viewed Plotter screen. In step 11 if you are finished with the POIs in the POI database, you could press NAV to close the POI database and return to the last viewed Plotter screen. Routes Routes are the least understood and one of the most important functions of a GPS receiver. The better you understand routes and how to use them, the more enjoyment you will receive from using your eXplorist. A GOTO route is a one-leg route with a starting point (your present position) and a destination (a POI you select). [. . . ] Press ENTER.
