Selecting a Point of Interest as a Destination
Points of Interest (or POIs) are commercial or recreational locations, landmarks, or services that are preloaded into the
Magellan RoadMate database. There are over 6,500,000 POI’s in the database, which range from restaurants, parks, gas
stations, and banks, to schools and police stations, and more. The purpose of the POI database (accessed through the
Dining, ATM, Gas... menu option) is to provide you with a list of popular destinations without having to add them to your
Address Book manually.
Spell Name
From the Select Destination screen, select Dining, ATM, Gas...
Select Spell Name.
Enter the name of the POI.
Selecting Nearest will list the POIs matching the name you entered from closest to farthest.
Select Nearest.
Use the Navigation key to scroll the list up or down (if necessary) and select the desired
POI. This list can be very long because the first 100 POIs beginning with the text entered
are displayed.
