Searching for and selecting a location

Searching for a POI directly

from the name of the facilities

You can search for POIs by their names.

1. Touch [Menu] on the map screen.

The “Navigation Menu” screen appears.

For details of the operations, refer to
“Screen switching overview” on page 27.

2. Touch [Find], then [Find Places].

3. Touch [Custom Search].

4. Select the area around which the POIs

should be searched for.

• In a Town:

Searches for a place within a selected city/
town. (The result list will be ordered by the
distance from the centre of the selected
city/town.)

• Around Last Known Position:

Searches around the current position or if it
is not available, around the last known
position. (The result list will be ordered by
the distance from this position.)

• Around Destination:

Searches for a place around the destination
of the current route. (The result list will be
ordered by the distance from the
destination.)

• Along Route:

Searches along the current route, and not
around a given point. This is useful when
you search for a later stopover that results
in a minimal detour only, such as searching
for upcoming petrol stations or restaurants.
(The result list will be ordered by the length
of the necessary detour.)

If you have selected [In a Town], select the
city/town to search in.

(e.g. Accommodation) to search in, or
touch [Find by Name] to search among all

(e.g. Hotel or Motel) to search in, or touch
[Find by Name] to search in the selected
place category.

7. Touch [Find by Name] if you have not

name of the place.

9. After entering a few letters, touch

[Results].
The screen appears showing the list of places
with names containing the entered character
sequence.

screen.
