Map Orientation: MioMap is able to rotate the map for your convenience. If you 
choose Track-up mode, the map will be rotated to look in the direction of your 
heading. Selecting North-up, the map remains oriented to have North toward the top. 
Use the left and right hardware buttons to turn your map in the direction you wish. 
This will immediately turn off the automatic rotation. A small compass in the top right 
section of the map screens (Page 28) will always show the current direction of the 
map. Map orientation should not be mixed up with Screen orientation. 
North-up: A kind of map orientation having the map rotated to have North toward 
the top of the screen. See also Track-up and Map Orientation. 
POI: Points Of Interest, exact map locations of important points saved in a database 
together with their name, category and subcategories (e.g. Service/Fuel/Autogas), 
address, phone and fax number, and other important information. Use the versatile 
search system in MioMap to find the appropriate POI near you, your destination or 
any other given location on the map (Page 66). You can also have your favourite 
places saved as ‘My POI’ in MioMap. 
Track log: In MioMap you have the possibility to record your journeys using the 
position data your GPS provides in every second or every few seconds (depending 
on your GPS settings). When you start the recording, position data are saved in the 
database until you stop recording it. This set of sequential GPS positions is called 
track log. Each set of consecutive positions has a name (originally it is the time of 
recording but you can change it to any name you like) and a colour in which it can be 
displayed on the map. Later you can replay the journey on the screen of MioMap as 
if it were happening again. This is good for demonstration purposes or for analysing 
your manoeuvres during the trip. See also Page 45. 
Track-up: A kind of map orientation when the map is rotated to look always in the 
direction of your heading. See also North-up and Map Orientation. 
Via point: Routes in MioMap can have several (as many as you want) different 
destinations to reach in a specific order. All these points except the final destination 
are called via points, as the route goes ‘via’ (through) them. The destinations can be 
seen in the Route Information screen on the Route line (Page 36), and each via point 
is announced by the voice instructions as you approach and when you reach it. 
Should your via point serve as a stopover, navigation continues automatically as you 
depart. Navigation will resume even if you turn off and on your device or restart 
MioMap. 
Zoom In and Out: The Zoom function is used to change the scale of the map. Use 
Zoom In to scale down the map to see less of it but in more detail, and use Zoom 
Out to scale the map up to have a broader view of that part of the map with fewer 
details. See also Page 17.
