Planning a route
Planning a route to an address using search
Important: In the interest of safety and to avoid distractions while you are driving, you should
always plan a route before you start driving.
To plan a route to an address using search, do the following:
1.
Select the Main Menu button to open the Main Menu.
2. Select Search.
The search screen opens with the keyboard showing.
3. Use the keyboard to enter the name of the place you want to plan a route to.
Tip: If you press and hold a letter key on the keyboard, you get access to extra characters if
they are available. For example, press and hold the letter "e" to access characters 3 e è é ê ë
and more.
You can search for an address, town, city, postcode or mapcode .
Tip: To search for a specific street in the United Kingdom or the Netherlands, type in a
postcode, then leave a space and then type in the house number. For example, 1017CT 35.
For other countries, postcodes are area-based and will give you a list of matching cities,
towns and streets in your search results.
Note: When searching, the whole map is searched. If you want to change how the search is
done, select the button to the right of the search box. You can then change where the search
is done, for example, to being along the route or in a city.
4. As you type the address, suggestions based on what you have entered are shown in columns.
You can continue typing or select a suggestion.
