Searching

Now that you've seen how iFINDER can find where you are, let's search for something somewhere else. Searching is one of the most powerful new features in the Lowrance GPS product line.

In this example, we'll look for the nearest fast-food restaurant. For more information on different types of searches, refer to Sec. 6, Searching.

NOTE:

This example requires the Point of Interest (POI) database included with a FreedomMap or a high-detail MapCreate custom map.

After iFINDER has acquired a position:

we will narrow our search. Press to FAST FOOD CHAINSENTENT.
