Please do not try to change any settings on the Magellan® eXploristTM while driving. Taking your eyes off the road is dangerous and can result in an accident in which you or others could be injured. USE GOOD JUDGMENT This product is an excellent navigation aid, but it does not replace the need for careful orienteering and good judgment. Never rely solely on one device for navigating. USE CARE The Global Positioning System (GPS) is operated by the U. S. Government, which is solely responsible for the accuracy and maintenance of the GPS network.

Routes Activating/Deactivating a Route 50 An active route is the route you are presently navigating on. Anytime you activate a route, it will remain the active route until you either turn it off (deactivate) or activate a new route.

You will be returned to the last viewed navigation screen with the route chosen activated or deactivated. Routes Changing the Destination Leg of an Active Route 51 When a route is created it can have many different legs to it, each leg with its own destination. If during your travels you want to skip some of the legs, you can select the leg that you want to proceed to next. To finish out the route, the final leg goes from the ranger station to the swimming area. This route would be Camp > Bridge > Marker > Ranger > Swim. Suppose that after crossing the bridge you don't want to go to the stone marker but instead you want to go to the ranger station. Because the route is active (you can select legs only from active routes), you would follow the instructions below and tell the eXplorist to set the next leg to the ranger station.
