Maps installed in your device
The GPS system uses electronic maps to provide detailed and handy information about all street
names and ranges of addresses for urban areas, as well as points of interest such as banks,
restaurants, pharmacies. The maps of your area are already installed on your GPS device's
internal memory.
9.1.3
Landmarks
Landmarks are particular locations along your travel paths that merit to be marked as reference
points (the mail box at the corner of the street where you have to turn), places to avoid (potted
plant on the sidewalk) or a location you go to (grocery store). You may create vocal recording for
any number of landmarks. A landmark will be announced as the user passes near it, whether on
foot or by vehicle.
Places that you consider as possible destinations in your usual travel, such as your home, a
friend’s place, your pharmacy or preferred restaurant, can be set as landmarks. Upon doing so,
you can ask Trek to provide guidance instructions from your current position to the selected
landmark.
9.1.4
Points of Interest
Points of Interest are commercially available information such as restaurants, hospitals, banks,
train stations included with the Maps. This information is handled jointly with the Maps already
included in your system. The automatic announcement of this information is not available by default,
but it can be activated through the settings. Note that Points of interest are not automatically
announced during motorized travels. Only landmarks are reported.
