MyPOIs
You can create files with your own POIs. These files have to be made
available to your navigation system in a specific folder.
If you want to choose from your own POIs, you will find them under the
MyPOIs
category of POIs. Each file with your own POIs is listed as a
sub-category. Each sub-category can have a personally created symbol
for representing your destinations on the map.
The navigation device can import a maximum of 10,000 POIs. These
destinations are allowed to be shared among a maximum of 40 sub-
categories.

Creating your own destinations
1. Open an empty document in an editor which can save the files in
UTF8 code (e.g. MS Notepad, Microsoft Word).
Note:
The following description is based on the use of MS Notepad as
editor. If a different editor is used, the saving of the file and its UTF-8
coding (point 4-9) may differ from this description.
2. For each destination create a data record (one line) with the
following form:
►
Longitude. Begin the entry with a minus sign if you want to
enter a western degree of longitude. The longitude must be
entered as a decimal number with a dot as the decimal sign.
►
Comma (as list separator)
►
Latitude. Begin the entry with a minus sign if you want to enter
a southern degree of latitude. The latitude must be entered as a
decimal number with a dot as the decimal sign.
►
Comma (as list separator)
►
Name of the destination. Any name is possible, but no commas
are allowed. If the use of a comma is indispensable, precede it
with a backslash ('\').
