NOTE:

Available through LEI Extras (look inside back cover for accessory
ordering information), FreedomMaps are pre-made maps that con-
tain all of the same information available in a custom MapCreate
map, without any of the work of preparation.

When the map is zoomed out far enough, most POIs appear as square

dots. As you zoom in closer, the symbols become readable icons. In the

0.2 mile zoom example at right, the cursor has selected the Cupps Café

POI, which triggers a pop-up box with the POI name. This pop-up box

works on POIs at any zoom range.

Tip:

In some urban areas, businesses are so close to one another that
their POI icons crowd each other on the screen. You can reduce
screen clutter and make streets and other map features easier to
see by simply turning off the display of POIs you're not watching
for. (To see how, check the text on Map Detail Category Selection,
page 84. It shows how to use the Map Categories Drawn menu to
turn individual POI displays off and on.) Even though their display
is turned off, you can still search for POIs and their icons will pop-
up when your unit finds them for you.

The Map Page has its own menu, which is used for several functions
and for setting various options. To access the Map Page Menu, from the
Map Page, press
