5. Continue entering the next three characters ‘T,’ ‘E,’ and ‘R’ in the same manner.

For other special characters, try searching for the following cities: Bragança, Portugal (appears as shown
here); or Meißen, Germany (appears as “MEISSEN” in your StreetPilot).
If you wish to save a city/POI as a waypoint, the StreetPilot assigns a waypoint name to this location.
Keep in mind that, although diacritical marks appear when using the FIND key, they are not supported
in most other StreetPilot functions. Therefore, Västerås, Sweden appears as “VASTERAS” when saved as
a waypoint.
To save a city or point of interest as a waypoint, select
the flag icon located on the lower left side of the page.

sion of your StreetPilot 2610/2650.
