POI (Points of Interest)
The
POI list is a collection of hundreds of interesting or useful places organised by easy-to-
find categories. For example, you can use Destinator to guide you to a shopping centre,
hotel, restaurant, or petrol station.
From the Destinations menu, tap the Points of Interest button. The POI screen appears. You can find a
category by tapping the Hide/Display Keyboard
button and entering text in the POI Category field.
The Smart Search System automatically displays the POI categories that match the characters entered.
If you didn’t find the category through the initial search you can also use the Find
button to do a
sub-search, particularly useful when the category name consists of two or more words. You can always
browse the POI Category list by using the Scroll buttons.
When selecting a category, Destinator automatically displays the category entries and the distance each
entry is from your current position. Select your entry and tap or click the Next button to display your
selected destination on the map and then tap the
GO button to calculate your route. From the Show on Map
screen, you can designate a route type, Quick or Short. For more information about calculating a route, see
"
Go to your Destination (on page 13)" on page 13.

Note: From the Actions screen, click the Sort by ABC button to display the category entries in alphabetical
order.
Subcategories
Many categories have subcategories to provide for an even greater list
of choices. For example, “Petrol Station” may have many
subcategories each representing a particular brand name. The same is
also true for Hotels. Restaurants have subcategories that represent
different types of food, such as Indian, Italian, and French, as shown
below.
