More

If you're looking for POIs, the More button provides a handy menu that divides the "Everything" POI list into eight subcategories. If you're searching for POIs in a particular category other than Gas and ATMs, Lodging or Restaurants, this can be a handy menu for narrowing sim- plifying your search.

The More Menu, available from the Find Menu,

provides additional search categories.

In addition to these subcategories, the More menu provides a Find In- tersections option, and an RV / Truck Menu with special options for RV and Truck drivers.

Tip:

In case you use the More Menu a lot, you can skip directly to it by pressing the FIND button twice, quickly. The iWAY skips the regu- lar Find Menu, and goes straight to More. If you press FIND three times quickly, the iWAY will open the RV / Truck Menu.

Intersections

The Intersections command on the Find menu will let you navigate to any street intersection. This can be a very helpful tool when you're trying to follow directions but don't have a specific street address. You can also use the Intersections command to find a single street. To search for either an intersection or a street, from the Find Menu choose MORE, then INTERSECTIONS. The Find Streets menu appears.

On the Find Streets menu, enter a name for the First Street by touch- ing anywhere inside the FIRST STREET field. The virtual keyboard will appear. Enter the name of the street (without direction or street type modifiers such as "N." for "North" or "Ave." for Avenue). When you're finished entering the street name, press DONE.
