Hello,
I have a Garmin nuvi 200 GPS unit.
Every now ant then it shows symbols or icons of POI (for instance
gasstations).
I have no idea how i can turn this feature on at the moment i need it.
Like showing gasstations or parking places when you need a gasstation
or a parking lot.
Also in the left lower corner sometimes i see a scale showing the
scale of the displayed map.
Again i have no idea how to turn this feature on or off.
Hope somebody can help me.
Bu

        I don't have Nuvi 200 to know all detail of it, but in general you will
need to ZOOM IN to some level before the icon start showing.

        If you zoom in all the way but it won't show (you don't seem to have the
problem) then it may be some bug with the firmware which I had with my Nuvi
680 for many months, and some newer firmware fixed the problem.

You can search for nearest gas station or parking lot then the GPS
will route you to it.
