For example, you could create a category of POIs called ‘Favourite restaurants’.

With each POI, save their phone number so that you can call them from your

NAVIGATOR to reserve a table.

How can I create my own POIs?

1. Tap the screen to bring up the main menu.

2. Tap Change preferences.

3. Tap Manage POIs.

4. Before you can add a POI, you have to create at least one POI category. Every

POI is assigned to a POI category. You can only add POIs to POI categories you

have created yourself.

Tap Add POI category.

5. Enter a name for your POI category, for example, ‘Friends’ or ‘Favourite

restaurants’. Then select a marker for your POI category.

6. Tap Add POI.

7. Select the POI category you want to add the POI to.

8. Select the location of your POI from the list below.

category

Add POI

Home

You can set your Home location as a POI.

If you want to change your Home location, you can create a POI of the Home

location before you change it.

Favorite

You can create a POI from a Favorite.

You can only create a limited number of Favorites. If you want to create

more Favorites you have to delete some Favorites first. Before you delete a

Favorite, make it into a POI so that you don’t lose the address.

Address

You can specify an address to be a POI. When you enter an address, you can

choose from four options. The same options as appear in the Navigate to...

menu:
City center
Street and house number
Postcode (fully supported only in UK and the Netherlands)
Crossing or intersection

Recent

destination

Select a POI location from a list of places you have recently used as

destinations.

Point of

Interest

You can add a Point of Interest (POI) as a POI. For example, if you are

creating a category of POIs for your favourite restaurants, use this option

instead of entering the addresses of the restaurants.
