Section 5:
Searching, Finding, and Navigating
One of the most important uses of the iWAY is generating routes to
help you get from where you are to where you want to be. In the fol-
lowing section we will teach you how to make iWAY generate a route
for you, as well as how to use information provided by the iWAY.
With the exception of the G

command on the Location Information
screen, all of the iWAY's search functions can be accessed by pressing
the
F
IND
button in the Main Menu. When you do, the first page of the
Find menu appears as shown in the following image.
The iWAY Find Menu (Find 1 page).
NOTE:
You can search for items even before the unit has acquired a posi-
tion. If you do a search before your position has been determined,
iWAY will show you distance and bearing to the selected item from
the unit's last known position. It will also offer to simulate the
route. For details on simulating a route, see Sec. 4.
The Find Menu, like the Options Menu, is divided into three pages.
When you first open the Find Menu, you will always see page 1, which
has buttons for each of the most common searches. To access the other
pages, choose the appropriate button at the top of the screen.
The options on the top row of page 1 all point to a database of POIs
(Points of Interest) stored on your unit. We've divided Gas and ATMs,
Lodging and Restaurants into their own categories to save you time on
the most common searches. These category buttons can be convenient,
