Addresses

When an address is entered, the search area is defined as the search area that is preset in the navigation system. You can change to another search area. If the new search area has a different language than the set system language, the system will automatically switch to another recognition engine. Because of this, the address should be given in the language used in the new search area.

  1. 1 Certain markets only.
  2. * Option/accessory.
  3. 2 The user can choose to call the POI or enter it as a destination.
  4. 3 For European countries, "country" is used instead of "state".
  5. 4 For Brazil and India, search area is changed in the center display.
