To Search for Specific Points of Interest in a country where you are not currently located:

Option 1

  1. At the main screen choose "Where To?."
  2. Now there should be a button at the bottom of the screen that says "Near…" Touch that button.
  3. You should now see a screen that shows several choices. You should choose "A Different City." Then select "OK"
  4. You should now see a screen where you can type in the name of a city in the country you wish to view. Choose "Done"when you have finished typing in the city name.
  5. You will now see a screen that shows a list of cities. Select the city you typed in.
  6. You will now see a menu with several icons you can choose. Hit the arrow button at the bottom of the screen to scroll down until you see an icon for "Browse Map" ("Browse Map" is different than the option to "View Map" from the main screen.)
  7. Select "Browse Map" and you should now see your desired map.

If you don't see road names or other map detail be sure to ZOOM IN. As you do, more map detail, such as road names, will appear.

Option 2

You can also view the map by doing the following:

  1. From the main screen on your GPS choose "View Map." You will see a map of your current location when you do this.
  2. Touch the "-" button several times to zoom out. Zoom out as much as you can.
  3. Then drag your finger across the screen to pan to the country you would like to see. There should be a rectangle around that country if it is the only checked map in the "Map Info" menu.
  4. Touch in the middle of the rectangle then start zooming in. The more you zoom in the more detail you will see on the map. If you can't see roads, keep zooming in.

If you can't see road names, keep zooming in.

To view specific points of interest:

  1. At the main screen choose "Where To?"
  2. There should be a button at the bottom of the screen that says "Near…" Touch that button.
  3. You should now see a screen that shows several choices. You should choose "A Different City". Then select "OK".
  4. You should now see a screen where you can type in the name of a city in the country you wish to view. Choose "Done" when you have finished typing in the city name.
  5. You will now see a screen that shows a list of cities. Select the city you typed in.
  6. You will now see a menu with several icons you can choose. Select whichever fits your needs best. Select "Points of Interest.
  7. You can now select several categories of POIs or spell out a name. For example, if you want to find hotels select "Lodging," restaurants choose "Food," gas stations, choose "Fuel," etc. You can also choose "spell name" and type in the name of the POI you would like to see.
  8. After making your selection you will see a list of hotels, gas stations, or restaurants, etc. relating to whichever category you choose.

Your GPS will automatically show you maps, cities, and POI’s near your current location, so if you want to be able to view a map and search for cities, intersections, and POIs in a country different than the one in which you are currently located remember you must choose the “Near…” option after you select “Where To?”

Once you are actually in the country you would like to view, you can simply select "View Map" from the main screen of your GPS and it will show your current location in that country. Again, if you can't see road names use the + button on the screen to ZOOM IN. As you zoom in more map detail will appear such as road names.

You also will no longer have to use the “Near…” function to search for POI’s once you are actually in the country as your GPS will recognize your location. You will be able to simply select the desired icon from the "Where To?" screen on your GPS.
