■Hints for quick address entry
•When entering a city/town  name or a street name:-Only characters that can be displayed  in the search results are shown on the 
keyboard. Other characters are grayed out.
- While entering text, the most likely sear ch result is always displayed in the 
text entry field. If the search result  is correct, touch   to select it.
- If you touch   (Results) after entering two characters, items that 
contain those two characters  are displayed in the list.
•You can find intersections easily  by using the following method.-First, when searching for an uncommon  road name, you only need to enter 
the first few letters to acquire the name.
- When one street name is shorter than  the other, the shorter one is searched 
for first. This shortens the search time for the road with the longer name.
• You can search by road category as well as road name. When the 
same word is included in names su ch as the street, road, and main 
street, by entering the first character for the type of road, you can 
quickly bring up the search results.  For example, if you are searching 
for “Pine Avenue” and you enter “Pi A”, roads such as “Pine Street” or 
“Pickwick Road” are not displayed.
• You can also search by using the ZIP Code. If the ZIP Code only 
contains a few characters, you can search more quickly than when 
entering the city/town name.
Selecting the destination from your favorite 
spots (POI: Point Of Interest)
You can select your destination from the favorite spots that have 
already been saved in the software.
You can use the same screen to find  a spot using the following various 
methods. • Using the quick search function, you can quickly search for spots 
around the name.
• Using the preset search function, you can search for the most 
popular spots with a few quick touches.
