Selecting Any Map Item With the Cursor
1. Use the zoom keys and the arrow keys to move around the map and
find the item you wish to select.

Searching
Now that you've seen how the GlobalMap 7000C can find where you
are, let's search for something somewhere else. Searching is one of the
most powerful 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, Search-
ing.
NOTE:
This example requires the Point of Interest (POI) database included
with a high detail MapCreate 6 custom map.
