NOTE:
The iWAY has several methods of performing searches. If you are
navigating, the unit searches for locations nearest to your current
route. If you have the map cursor on screen the unit will search for
all locations nearest to the map cursor. If you are not navigating
and do not have the cursor on screen the unit will search for loca-
tions near your current position. You can choose a specific search
setting by pressing the
F
IND
B
Y
button in the bottom left corner of
the Nearest To Current Position screen.
The Find By menu allows you to customize searches.
The Find By menu allows you to search by any of the methods de-
scribed earlier or by name. Searching for the specific name of POI al-
lows you to find the closest Texaco or Shell gas station depending on
your preference. It is often used in restaurant searches. For an example
lets assume you are running low on gas and need to find the nearest
gas station. Just use the iWAY’s default Find By setting:
N
EAREST
.
The list of search results contains two entry fields at the top and three
columns across the bottom of the screen. The first column contains the
location's name and fills most of the screen. The contents of the second
and third column depend on whether or not you are currently navigat-
ing to a destination.
If you are not navigating you will see the distance and bearing from
your current location (or cursor position) to the listed location. If you
are already on a route the iWAY will use these two columns to show
the To Exit and From Exit distances to help you manage your trip.
