Section 5:

Searching, Finding and Navigating

With the exception of the

command in the Location Information

screen, the iWAY's search functions all begin by pressing the

F

IND

but-

ton on the main menu screen. When the

F

IND

button is selected the first

Find menu will appear. Each Find menu contains different search op-

tions. The options in all three Find menus are part of a database of

POIs stored on the iWAY's hard drive.

The iWAY Find Menu (Find 1 page).

The Find menu, like the Options menu, is divided into three menus.

When you first open the Find menu you will always see page 1. To ac-

cess the other Find menus choose the appropriate number at the top of

the screen.
You can search for items even before the unit has acquired a position. If

you conduct a search before your position has been determined, the

unit will display distance and bearing to the selected destination from

the unit's last known position.
In the three Find menus search options have been divided into differ-

ent categories. This is designed to save you time when looking for the

most common search fields. Gas, lodging, restaurants, shopping, attrac-

tions and airports all have their own separate search screens.
These search features can be convenient but when in doubt about a

particular POI you can use the

S

button in the

second Find menu. The unit has a powerful search database to help you

refine your search and find the precise location you are looking for. The

Find Address menus allow you to search for a particular POI by street

name, city, province, country or zip code, depending on which version of

the iWAY you have.
