To FIND Västerås, Sweden:
1. Press the unit or remote
FIND
key then select ‘Cities.’
2. Touch the ‘Filter’ tab to display the mini keyboard. On the keyboard, select ‘V’ as the fi rst character.
The next fi eld is automatically highlighted
3. Select the ‘A’ as the second character.
4. Select the ‘S’ as the third character. As you enter letters, notice how the ‘A’ character in the preceding
step changes from ‘A’ to an ‘A’ with diacritical marks.
5. Continue entering the next three characters ‘T,’ ‘E,’ and ‘R’ in the same manner.
6. Select ‘Å’ as the seventh character. Notice that the diacritic letter appears fi rst, not ‘A,’ because
‘VÄSTERÅS’ is the only matching entry remaining in the city database.
7. Try this same exercise with København, Denmark; Logroño, Spain; or Genève, Switzerland.
For other special characters, try searching for the following cities: Bragança, Portugal (appears as
shown here); or Meißen, Germany (appears as “MEISSEN” in your StreetPilot).
If you wish to save a city/POI as a waypoint, the StreetPilot assigns a waypoint name to this loca-
tion. Keep in mind that, although diacritical marks appear when using the
FIND
key, they are not
supported in most other StreetPilot functions. Therefore, Västerås, Sweden appears as “VASTERAS”
when saved as a waypoint.
To save a city or point of interest as a waypoint, select
the fl ag icon located on the lower left side of the page.
Other special characters appear on the European ver-
sion of your StreetPilot 2620/2660.
