Notes on Entering Data If you are having trouble getting the results you expected, here are a few useful tips. • Check for apostrophes and hyphens. If you do not see the POI or street name you are looking for in the list, check to see if the name has an apostrophe or hyphen. • The more characters you enter, the smaller the list of possible options is from which to choose. • When entering a street or city name it is not necessary to use accented letters. You can enter city and streets names using only standard characters. Smart City Search The Magellan RoadMate receiver utilizes a feature known as "Smart City Search". Smart City Search attempts to predict the city you are looking for. This prediction is based upon two factors; your position and cities you've gone to before. In this example I am in Los Angeles and enter "PA". The receiver looks for cities I've already gone to as well as cities near my location that begin with "PA" and, in this case comes up with "PASADENA, CA". In this example "PA" has been entered again but this time the receiver is in Atlanta, GA. The city displayed now is Palmetto, GA, so location has changed the predicted city to one closer to your location. 9
