2. Press ENTER to display the information page for the item.

Finding a Waypoint

Waypoints that you have created and stored in the StreetPilot III can be found by selecting the

‘Waypoints’ option of the Find menu. You can fi nd a waypoint from a list of waypoints ‘By Name’ or
‘Nearest’ using the procedure explained in the steps above.

The Waypoint Information page (step 2 above) displays the waypoint name, a map symbol, the

location in lat/lon, elevation and three on-screen buttons (Route to It, Show it on the map, or Delete
the Waypoint).

Finding a City

Cities can be found by selecting the ‘Cities’ option of the Find menu. The City Information page

for the selected city displays the city name, the size by population and the distance from your location.
You can view it on the map (‘Show Map’) or ‘Route to It’ from your current location, or save it as a
waypoint (‘Save as Waypoint’). Cities can be found in the built-in “basemap” or in data downloaded
from a MapSource CD.

To fi nd a city in MapSource data or built-in basemap data:

1. Follow the steps above to fi nd an item by name or by nearest.

2. While viewing a list of cities, press MENU to view an options window. Use the ROCKER KEYPAD

to choose ‘Select Map’ and press ENTER.

3. The ‘Select Map’ window appears. Use the ROCKER KEYPAD to select the desired map and press

ENTER.

You can search for cities using the built-in basemap data
or using data loaded from MapSource CDs (such as City
Navigator Europe).

Nearest cities are listed in order according to their
respective mileage from your present position.
