8.12.1 Data format
The file containing your own points of interest 
must comply with the WGS84 standard.
The required file format is “.csv”.
Each line of the file may describe one point of 
interest containing the following pieces of infor-
mation:
 fLongitude
 fLatitude
 fName
 fAddress (optional)
 fTelephone number (optional)
A line of the file may look like this:
77.61,12.92,Park,Bangalore City,00917829
Notes:
 fEnsure that no piece of information 
contains a comma. Inside the file, 
commas are exclusively used to 
separate the different pieces of 
information from one another.
 fCoordinates of the southern and 
western hemisphere have to be 
specified by negative values.
The name of the csv file represents the name of 
the point of interest category. When setting up a 
csv file, be sure to insert only points of interest 
that belong to the same category and use the 
name of the category as the file name.
You may create up to four additional levels of 
categories and subcategories if you create a 
corresponding folder structure. The name of a 
folder will be recognised as the name of the 
corresponding category or subcategory.
Notes:
 fThe csv file or the top-level folder 
that represents a top-level category 
must be stored inside a folder 
named “myPOIs”. Place this folder 
in the root directory of a USB stor-
age device.
 fA csv file that contains POI warnings 
must be stored inside the folder 
“myPOIs” or any of its subfolders. 
The name of this file must begin 
with “myPOIWarnings_” and end 
with “.csv” (for example: “myPOI-
Warnings_Curves.csv”). Otherwise 
the POI warnings cannot be dis-
played.
8.12.2 Loading your own points of 
interest onto the device
Note:
When you load a new file, any of your 
own points of interest that are already 
stored on the device will be deleted.
 fSwitch to navigation mode.

the file to the device.
The device detects the file automatically.
 fTap Download to confirm that you want to

on the device may be incomplete or 
outdated.
