4.7.2.4  Manage POI (Points of Interest) 

Here you can set all the parameters of POIs that you have created and the visibility 
of the built-in POIs that come with the map. 

Manage built-in POI visibility 

The maps in Clarion come with a huge number of POIs. Displaying all of them would 
make the maps too crowded (to see how POI items are shown on the map see  
Page 

). In order to avoid that, you can decide which POI groups to show and 

which ones to hide on the map. 

23

Clarion has a multi-level POI category system. You 

can set the visibility of the top two levels. All levels below that will be shown or 
hidden according to their respective category (i.e. you can set the visibility of Petrol 
Stations in the Services category, but all brands listed under that will either be shown 
or suppressed together). 

 

Groups shown with a grey icon 

 are hidden; blue icons 

 are visible on the map, 

while the ones shown in two colours 

 have some of their subcategories shown and 

some others hidden. 

If you highlight any of the POI groups by tapping them, the button in the bottom left 
corner will become Show if the POI group is hidden, or Hide if the group is shown or 
partly shown.  

Tip: To make a partly shown group fully shown, tap this button twice. First you will 
hide the whole group, and then you will have it displayed with all its subgroups. 

Tapping again the highlighted POI group (except for My POI – described later) opens 
the list of subcategories of that group. Here you cannot see bicolour subgroups, as 
visibility can only be set for the top two levels of categories. Showing and hiding a 
subgroup is done the same way as for the main groups. 

 

Manage My POI 

By highlighting then tapping again the My POI switch on the Manage POI main 
screen you can manage the POI groups and items that you have created.
