APPENDIX
CAUTION: Garmin is
not responsible for the
consequences of using a
custom POI database or
the accuracy of the safety
camera or other custom
POI database.
Custom POIs (Points of Interest)
Your nüvi accepts custom points of interest (POI) databases,
available from various companies on the Internet. Some custom
POI databases contain alert information for points such as
safety cameras and school zones. Your nüvi can notify you with a
proximity alarm when you approach one of these points.
After downloading your POI database, use the Garmin POI Loader
to install the POIs into your unit. The POI Loader is available at
http://www.garmin.com/products/nuvi. Select Updates and
Downloads.
Using the POI Loader program, you can store the Custom POIs
on your “nuvi” drive or your SD card. You can also customize the
proximity alert settings for each POI using the POI Loader. Refer
to the POI Loader Help File for more information; press F1 to
open the Help File.
To view your Custom POIs, touch My Locations > Custom
POIs.
To delete the Custom POIs from your nüvi, touch Where To?
from the Menu page. Touch My Locations > Delete All. Touch
Yes to delete all of your Favorites and your Custom POIs.
Adjusting the
Proximity Alarms
To turn on or off the proximity
alarms, from the Menu page,
touch > System > Proximity
Alarms.
When the Proximity Alarms are
on, your nüvi chimes when you
approach a Custom POI.
