Returning to the point can be done as quickly as you can turn your boat, or may be done months later with equal accuracy. To precisely position your boat over the waypoint, you may want to zoom into the smallest zoom range.
If you have traveled some distance from the waypoint, it may be necessary to adjust the map range using zoom to ensure the waypoint of interest is visible on the screen. Use PICK to illuminate the waypoint. (Refer to Figure 30)
The information shown on the right side of the display will give you accurate navigation information; both distance and bearing, to help you return exactly to that point. This information is updated once per second, so response time is not a factor.
You may want to change the temporary waypoint to a permanent waypoint giving it a symbol and name as shown in section IV. Creating Permanent Waypoints.
Note: When the P STOR key is pressed, the temporary waypoint number will be displayed for about three seconds.
Maintenance

If the unit comes into contact with salt spray, simply wipe the affected areas with a cloth dampened in fresh water.
When cleaning the screen, use a chamois cloth and nonabrasive cleaner such as Windex ®. Do not wipe while dirt or grit is on the screen. Be careful to avoid scratching the screen.
The receiver may become dirty from constant exposure to the environment. Simply clean the surface of the receiver with a liquid detergent. Do not paint the receiver surface as some marine paints will inhibit the reception of the GPS signals.
Never leave your NS 10 in a closed car or trunk, especially in extreme temperatures.
Do not attempt to repair the NS 10 yourself. There are no user serviceable parts inside the unit, and opening the housing will void your warranty and will probably damage the waterproof seal.
