Many companies offer POI files on their web
sites, which allows the user to supplement

other sources.

NOTE
•
Supplementing the map database
requires a certain knowledge of com-
puters.
•
The POI file formats and procedures
for downloading these files are set by
the respective manufacturers/distribu-
tors. This means that there is no
standard procedure for downloading
these files and these instructions can-
not give exact step-by-step instruc-
tions for doing so.
•
Contact your Volvo retailer if you have
any questions about downloading POI
files.
The following is a general example of the pro-
cedure for downloading a POI file from the
Internet:
1. Go to the source's web site and search
for the POI file to be downloaded.
2. Select a POI file with the "gpx" format
and download it. If the file is not available
in the gpx format, it will have to be con-
verted to this format after it has been
3
downloaded .
3. Copy the POI file to a USB flash drive.
