MY PLACES/USER-DEFINED
POINTS OF INTEREST (POIs)
A point of interest (POI) in the My Places data-
base is a specific location of interest such as a
gas station or bank. The POI consists of a longi-
tude value, a latitude value and a name.
Additional POIs can be added to the system us-
ing the vehicle’s USB port. For more information
about using the USB port, see your vehicle’s
owner’s manual.
The POIs can be set as a destination or be setup
to activate POI warnings that display a pop-up
message when the vehicle approaches certain
areas such as hazard spot warnings.
NOTE:
● In order to save the user-defined points of in-
terest data, a USB mass storage device is
required. The user-defined points of interest
data cannot be saved on the SD-card which
contains the navigation data.
● User-defined points of interest are not shown
in the map representation.
● The system recognizes the user-defined
points of interest (POI) data and then asks the
user via a pop-up message if the data needs
to be downloaded into the system.
● If you confirm the download, the available user
Places in the system internal memory will be
deleted and the new ones in the USB mass
storage device will be downloaded into the in-
ternal memory of the system.
● The progress of the download is shown by a
progress-bar. When the download is finished,
the user is notified that the USB mass storage
device can be removed.

POI data can be downloaded from the Internet
or created in a simple text editor in CSV (Comma
Separated Values) file format.
There are two kinds of POI data supported by
the system:
● User POIs – user-defined points of interest
(POI) that can later be set as a destination
and found using route guidance.
● POI-warnings – user-supplied areas such as
hazard spots that the system displays in a
pop-up window when the vehicle is ap-
proaching the designated area. Perform the following procedure to create your
own User POIs:
1. Connect a USB mass storage device to your personal computer.
2. Use a standard software program to create a list of POIs. Make sure the software can
support the CSV file format.
3. In the first column, enter the longitude value of the position of the POI.
4. In the second column, enter the latitude value of the position of the POI.
5. In the third column, enter the name of the POI. Information entered in the fourth
column, such as address or phone number,
will be appended to the name of the POI.
6. Add more rows if necessary.
7. Save the file with the extension .csv (for example, myplacesfile.csv) .
NOTE:
The name of the .CSV file will be used to
create a My Places category in the system.
Create separate .CSV files with different
names to create other My Places
categories.

8. Make sure to select the USB mass storagedevice as the location to save, using the ex-
act folder name “/myPOIs” for User POIs or
“/myPOIs/myPOIwarnings”
for POI-warnings. For example, if the USB
mass storage device’s root folder is repre-
sented by f:/, save the file to the folder
“f:/myPOIs” for User POIs or to the folder
“f:/myPOIs/myPOIwarnings”
for POI-warnings.
9. Connect the USB mass storage device to the vehicle’s USB port. For more informa-
tion about the USB port, see your vehicle’s
Owner’s Manual.
Adding user-defined points of interest
(POIs)
Perform the following procedure to add your
User POIs to the system:
1. Press the NAV button.
2. Touch “Destination”.
3. Touch “My Places”. 4. If a USB mass storage device with the new
POI data is connected, the system will auto-
matically ask if you want to transfer the POI
data. Touch “Download” to begin the trans-
fer or “Cancel” to cancel the procedure.
NOTE:
New POI data will overwrite POI data al-
ready in the internal memory.
