6.2.1 Find an Address, Street, Intersection or City
Searching for a city, a street, an intersection, or an exact address can all be done in
the Find Address module? If you know at least a part of the address, this is the
quickest way to find the location.
The following illustration shows the structure of the address-search module. There
are five levels (Country, State, City, Street and Address). The state level appears
only in case of some countries (e.g. Australia, USA). The list of recent cities and
states is the entry point of the module. The green rectangles are the exits. You can
complete your search by selecting the centre of a settlement, the midpoint of a street,
an intersection of two roads, or an exact address.
You enter the module at Level 3. From this point you can go forward (down) to give
the name of the street, then the house number or intersection, or backward (up) to
change the city, state or country to search.
6.2.1.1 Selecting the city, state and country to search in
The first screen of the address-search module is the list of recently used cities (and
states in Australia). The first line of the list is always the city you are in or near to.
Should the settlement you are looking for appear on the list, just tap it and you will
immediately jump to the Street Name Input screen with the selected city name or
postcode shown at the top of the screen. If the desired settlement is not displayed,
use the arrows in the bottom right corner to see more of this list.
Tip: If during navigation you need to know the name of the city or the country you are
currently in, just start Find/Address and read the first line of the list. This function
leads to a reliable result only if GPS position is available, and you have not disabled
Lock-to-Position by moving the map.
