Page 19 highlights

Basic Operation However, because the city search lists all cities in the database matching the characters inputted, it is possible to select a city that does not contain the street selected previously. In this case, you can either select Street to re-enter the street name; select City to choose only form cities that contain the desired street; or choose Back to continue spelling the city name. For this example select City. Enter the name of the desired city. Notice this time you enter fewer characters to match the desired city in the speller. Help with Street Names When entering names of streets, it is important to follow a few simple guidelines. Press the Help button on the Spell Street screen. First, only enter the street name, do not enter any prefixes or suffixes such as "North" or "N", "South" or "S". Do not enter the street type such as "St" or "Ave". For example, if the street you are looking for is "N. Foothill Blvd.", you would simply enter "Foothill". Second, when entering numbered streets, use the numeric keypad to enter the street followed by entering the identifier using the alpha keypad. Do not spell the street name. For example, if the street you are looking for is "4th Street", use the numeric keypad to enter the number "4", then, switch back to the alpha keypad to enter "th". Do not spell "Fourth" unless the name of the street starts with the word "Fourth" such as "Fourth Army Rd." 13
