Points Of Interest (Poi); Creating A Route To A Poi By Category; Creating A Route To A Special Poi (Aaa Tourbook) - Magellan RoadMate N393M Series User Manual

The Magellan RoadMate receiver has preloaded POIs that can be used as a
destination for a route. Selecting a restaurant or finding a gas station nearby is
at your fingertips.

Creating a Route to a POI by Category

POIs are categorized into unique categories from gas stations to tourist
attractions. Most, but not all categories are further organized into
subcategories. Restaurants have, for example, several subcategories that
provide a way to search for restaurants serving Chinese food, fast food, or
other favorites.

subcategories in the list to further narrow the search.
