your destination. This method allows you only to select
a destination from the easy planning route method
or from the All Points of Interest (POI) categories with
the “All Search Areas” comment for US Only. For
example, Tourist is a category that features this
comment. SeeEnter Destination on page 4-27for more

region when you get closer to the area you are traveling
to. See “Setting the Search Area” underMaps on
