Using "manage POI", select first the major category, such as "pharmacy" and you'll notice at the lower left it will say either "show" or "hide". If it says "hide", it's already enabled to show up. If it says, "show", press the "show" button once and it is added to the displayed list. You can go through the entire POI database enabling/disabling the POI's shown and once you return to the map, it will update the list. So, no, you are not limited to just gas stations!

Hi: strangely, it doesn't seem that you do so through the main menu that you access via the Menu button. However, the qual/iso/wb button that is one of two buttons next to the view finder is the way to do it: NRW.

There was a two sheet op manual provided originally. If don't find it. Them all need to do for setup is use Menu butto for settings( there are two settings) so when pressed once it gets the first set of menues and press Menu again and get the 2nd set options. Use up and down arrows to scroll to a desired setting then press OK to enter and use arrows again to highlight your options. When selected press OK to accept. Whenever needing to exit press Menu button. Don't ever reset to original because the language changes to Chinese. I have reverted it back to English. If needing help with that let me know. Good luck.

It looks like that's the purpose of the POI Loader software that you can download for free from Garmin. http://www.garmin.com/products/poiloader/ I doubt the added addresses would be routable, though.

Yes. When you do a general reset by pushing and holding both function buttons at the same time, you can then set all the general parameters. One of those parameters is a toggle choice between Km(kilometers) or M(miles).

Interesting, as I was thinking of purchasing. Is there an option to add POI's as in some other systems?

You need to change it in the display settings. The computer doesn't automaticity know how your screen is oriented.

No, and the actual amount of info shown is very minimal compared to competition. Even after the latest map update, serious map errors and POI list is nearly worthless. Buy anything else, it can't be a lower quality product. Large screen is only useful feature. Just completed an 8500 mile trip around the county with this frustrating device!

Thank you!My OS is 7.161 but my map version is 705. The 710 is available for 50 Euros...(?)I downloaded the Starbucks POIs from the tomtomforum but the only way to access them is through the Browse map feature. The Starbucks icons appear on the map and I can select one and then Navigate there.Should the 710 map version be available with the One out of the box or is it an upgrade?Thanks again for your help.

The maps DVD has nothing to do with adding custom POIs. Download "POI Loader" from the Garmin web site if you want to do that.

From your document, select 'Print', then 'Properties', then 'Layout'. On the drop down menu for 'Print on Both Sides', select 'None'. That's it. That setting should now become your default until you change it back.

I change them on the main system. But like the other comment, maybe you should download the manual.

That's so easy. Click the Weather and touch Menu button (left side of home button looks like 3 horizon lines), and then you can see the setting menu. Touch the setting then you can choose "Unit", touch unit menu then you can change C to F. It's so easy, right? Love to use "Menu" Button~! Have fun~!

There is a map setting in the garmin to turn maps on or off. You can not have lake mapps on and see the contours of the land. You have to shut off lake maps from displaying to see land contours.
