The Find Page
Using the Find Page
You can use the Find button (the one with a magnifying glass) to search for addresses, roads, cities,
points of interest, waypoints, coordinates, and more. There are two Find search options: Find Near
Map Center, which is the default setting, or Find By Name.
Use the Find Near Map Center search option to search for categories of information, such as geo-
graphic features, waypoints, points of interest, and more, near your current map center. The number
of search results returned is based on available search results, not on distance. Find Near Map Center
searches stop after 200 search results are found.
Use the Find By Name search option to search for a specific location, such as a specific address or
point of interest. To narrow your search results, you can choose either the Contains or Begins With
option to search for results that contain or begin with certain characters.
To Find a Waypoint
1. Press the Find button. The Find Page displays.
2. Optional: If your current Find setting is Find Near Map Center and you want to search for
waypoints by name, press MENU. Find By Name is highlighted. Press ENTER to select the
Find By Name option.
OR
If your current Find setting is Find By Name and you want to search for waypoints that are
near the map center, press MENU. Find Near Map Center is highlighted. Press ENTER to
select the Find Near Map Center option.
3. For a Find Near Map Center search, use the arrow keypad to highlight the Show field, press
ENTER, select Waypoints, and press ENTER.
OR
For a Find By Name search, use the arrow keypad to highlight the Name field and press
ENTER. To enter the name, highlight each letter of the name on the keyboard and press
ENTER after each consecutive letter. Then, highlight OK and press ENTER.
