Tips on Entering Addresses Quickly
When you are entering the name of a city or a street, Magellan software only displays those characters
that appear in possible search results. The other characters are grayed out.
When entering city names or street names, tap the List button after a couple of letters; Magellan
software lists the items that contain the specified characters.
You can also search by ZIP codes. This narrows the number of matching cities to normally less then
four.
