The Find Menu - Overview
The Find Menu allows you to fi nd stored locations
(waypoints) and map items (cities, exits, etc.). They can be
found by name or by those nearest to your current location
(Position Icon). If you are using MapSource MetroGuide
data, the list of fi nd locations will be expanded to include
categories for Points of Interest, Street Addresses and Inter-
sections.
Press and release the FIND button to access the Find Menu.
The Find Menu allows you to locate and travel to:
Waypoints - Marked and saved locations on the
map used as a destination or a point on the way
(waypoints) to a destination. Refer to page 27 to mark
or create a waypoint.
Favorites - A list of familiar and often used waypoints.
Cities - A list of cities in the basemap.
Interstate Exits - A list of all Exits on the nearest
Interstate Highway, categorized by “All Types”, “Ser-
vices”, “Rest Areas”, and “Other” (weight stations, etc.).
Points of Interest - A list of restaurants, museums,
hospitals, etc.
Addresses - A page with data entry fi elds for address
number, street name, city and postal code, used to
defi ne an address.
Intersections - A page with data entry fi elds for two
streets, a city, and postal code. Used to defi ne an intersection.
For some categories, there are two methods of
listing. The “By Name” list contains every item in the map
database for the selected category, while the “Nearest” list
contains only those items that are near to your Current
Location or to the Map Pointer. Categories listed by either
method will display a choose prompt.
These pages are structured with a set of sub-menus
and location information pages that guide you through
the process of fi nding locations. Use them to construct
a Route, establish a direct line of travel (Goto), or when
gathering information.
