Select Choose destination, then New location, then Address. Enter the name of the city/town first. Some cities with common names such as "Athens" have several types of names associated with a city. If a name does not display, continue typing characters until the name you are looking for displays, or tap List to display a longer list of city names. Smaller cities are located toward the bottom of the list. If a city name appears twice within a state, you may need to check both for your specific address.

After city, enter the street name and the number of the address. If the next letter in the street name cannot be selected on the keyboard, tap Expand Search to search a greater area. The Expand Search button can also help locate addresses that may actually be in a different town, spelled slightly differently, or in a neighboring town. (Note: Some models include the option to enter the house number before the street name, by tapping house number. The device will remember the order for the next time you enter an address.)

Tip: For addresses on state or county routes, try entering the state or county initials first (for example, State Road 535 would be entered as "SR"). You may need to try other options, such as "State Road" or "CA" for California, for example.

You can also search by postal code, city center, intersection, or latitude/longitude.
