remat457 Posted April 11, 2009 Share Posted April 11, 2009 can you just turn off say "restaurants" but leave all the other selected ones one on? (like "rest areas") Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tex2670 Posted April 11, 2009 Share Posted April 11, 2009 Yes. You can show up to (I think) five different icons. Use the route preference button at the bottom of the screen, then select POIs, and you can select individual categories to turn on or off.

remat457 Posted April 11, 2009 Author Share Posted April 11, 2009 Thank you for the reply, but I suspect that won't work while driving. :( Is there an equivalent voice command like "POI off"? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry--it's "Map View". Do it before you drive off. I've never learned the voice commands--it's just not worth the hassle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The air coming out can blow on the microphone and it gets that turbulant wind sound that distorts your voice. And also just talk normal. Don't try to slow your speech or over pronounce your commands. Since I learned that, I rarely have any problems anymore. I love the command "I'm hungry." LOL!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
