Note:
The POI browser only shows the nearest points of interest, not all of them. Therefore, if you are looking for a particular point of
interest, say a restaurant with a certain name, you may have to type some (more) letters of that name before it appears in the
list.

2.2.6 Picking an address
STEP 1. Specifying the city or postal code area
In TomTom Navigator , you find an address by going from the general to the specific. In other words, you first specify the city or
postal code area, then the street name, and then the house number or crossing. Although this is slightly different from how
addresses are normally written down, there are many advantages to searching for an address in this order.
The first thing you are therefore asked to do, is to specify a city, town or village. Type the first letters of its name. A few letters
usually suffice. When you see the name of the city in the list, tap it.
TomTom Navigator will initially present you with a list of recently used city names. In other words, after you have used
TomTom Navigator for a while, you will often be able to pick the city without typing any letters at all.
TomTom Navigator also knows the postal code zones for most countries. This means that in those countries, you can enter
the (first part of) a postal code instead of entering the name of the city.
