How Do I Get There

When you add a new waypoint to a route, the device 
displays all the waypoints on the route and asks where you 
want to insert the new waypoint. Tap the line that you want to 
insert the new waypoint in front of (that is, select the 
waypoint that should come immediately after the new one).
