Garmin 62S - Road Navigation

Could other owners of the Garmin 62 series please let me know how to display the distance to the next turn when driving? It's very handy and used to displayed on my 60CSX.
  • It´s easy

    If you want to see it in the map page,you should set a data field
    You can choose (1 or 2 o 3 til 4) and then,
    one field should be changed to "next turn" .
    The same procedure is in the trip computer,yuo must change one field to
    "next turn" .
    Good luck Martin

    Hi Martin, I already had a look at the datafields you mentioned. There is actually no datafield called "next turn". The closest thing I can find is "turn". However, the "turn" datafield only displays a relative bearing. What I want is it to display the DISTANCE to the next turn. Have you actually tested the "next turn" function you are talking about, or are you just guessing? FYI, I have a 62S running v2.60 software.
  • I found it !!!

    Dear Don :
    I found it by setting " Dist to next"
    I tested it in Spanish and also in English and attached to this message,you´ll find 2 screen captures 1 navigating and 1 without navigation .
    If you need more help,please let me know it .
    Best regards Martin
