Points 

of Inter-

est

Points of Interest or POIs are useful places on the map. 

Here are some examples:
• Restaurants
• Hotels
• Museums
• Parking garages
• Gas stations

: To report incorrect or missing information about an existing Point of Interest included 

with your map, use the Map Share service to share your corrections with the Map Share 

community.

You can set your navigation module to let you know when you are near to selected POI 

locations. In this way you could, for example, set the device to let you know you when you 

are approaching a gas station.

You can create your own POI categories and add your own POI locations to these catego-

ries.

This means you can, for example, create a new POI category called Friends. You could 

then add all your friends’ addresses as POIs in this new category. 

Tap the following buttons to create and maintain your own POIs.
• Add POI - tap this button to add a location to one of your own POI categories.
• Warn when near POI - tap this button to set your navigation module to warn you when 

you are near selected POIs.

• Delete POI - tap this button to delete one of your own POI categories.
• Edit POI - tap this button to edit one of your own POIs.

Tap this button to manage your POI categories and locations.

your corrections with the Map Share community.
