Hi, Via points, so their called.
Note: With the nuvi 30, 40, 50, 52, 54, 200, 300, 600, 1100, 1200 and 1300 series, you can add one via point per route. With all other nuvi devices you can add several via points per route.
When you set up a via point on a route, the device navigates to your final destination by way of the via point that you added. In other words, you navigate first to the via point, and then to your final destination.
To add a via point to a route:
- Touch a destination
- Touch Go
- It may be required to allow the device to calculate to this destination before moving on to the next step
- Touch the menu button or back arrow to return to the main menu
- Touch Where To?
- Locate and touch the desired Favorite, Point of Interest, Address, or Recently Found
- Touch Add to Active Route or Add As a Via Point
- Some devices will require you to select Done
