When the map is zoomed out far enough, most POIs appear as square
dots (left). As you zoom in closer, the symbols become readable icons.
In the 0.3-mile zoom example (right), the cursor has selected the Cho-
lita's Mexican Restaurant POI, which triggers a pop-up box with the
POI name. This pop-up box works on POIs at any zoom range.
Tip:
In some urban areas, businesses are so close to one another that
their POI icons crowd each other on the screen. In the preceding
figure, you can see a packed string of POIs all along the west half of
11th Street. You can reduce screen clutter and make streets and
other map features easier to see by turning off POIs you don't need
to see on the display. (To see how, check the text on Map Detail
Category Selection, in Sec. 5.
It shows how to use the Map Categories Drawn menu to turn indi-
vidual POI displays off and on.) Even though their display is turned
off, you can still search for POIs and their icons will pop-up when
your unit finds them for you.
The following page contains a 12-step quick reference for Easy Mode
operation. If you don't want to carry the manual with you as you prac-
tice with the iFINDER, you might consider photocopying this quick ref-
erence page and tucking it into your pocket.
