Setting a Route to Your Destination

• For safety reasons, these route-setting

functions are not available while your
vehicle is in motion. To enable these func-
tions, you must stop in a safe place and
put on the handbrake before setting your
route. (see page 18 for details).

Some information on traffic regulations
depends on the time when the route calcula-
tion is performed. Thus, the information may
not correspond with a certain traffic regula-
tion when your vehicle actually passes the
location. Also, the information on the traffic
regulations provided will be for a passenger
vehicle and not for a truck or other delivery
vehicles. Always follow the actual traffic regu-
lations when driving.

Searching for Points of Interest

(POI) Countrywide

Information about various facilities (Points Of
Interest - POI), such as petrol stations, hotels, or
restaurants, is available. By entering the POI
Name, you can search for a POI.

You can also narrow down the search range
by initially specifying the name of the city
where your destination is located and also by
initially specifying the category.

Use the functions [POI Search] and
[Vicinity Search] in different situations. In
[POI Search], the distance is not limited
within the selected country, but in [Vicinity
Search
], the distance for the search is limited
to within a 16 km (10 mile) radius.

The following three methods are available for
searching facilities by POI:
• Searching for a POI directly from the name of

the facilities

• Searching for POIs by specifying a category

first

• Searching for POIs by specifying a city name

first

Input the name of the facilities.

[City]:
Touch to specify the destination city or area,
and then input the city name. (This is available
only when [Name] is blank.)

available only when [Name] and [City] are

the list to proceed to the next step.

When the options are narrowed down to
six or less, a list of the matching facilities
automatically appears.
When you enter the same characters that
were entered previously, the system auto-
matically displays the character string that
follows the entered characters. (Auto fill-in
function)
