Garmin Nuvi 250?

My Garmin is blowing me out just bought it have used it by pointing on map.
But how do, or can you over ride the predicted street names? as it comes up with names nowhere near where I want to go. For example
wharf road Portsmouth
it gave predicted text one miles away.


Without going in to too longer waffle how do you access the favourites list.

That's a good one Doug!!! You haven't got one have you!!!. The most logical thing to do with a new item is to read the manual,,,,I've read it cover to cover including the limited warranty.It doesn't tell you how to overcome predicted street names you don't want and which prevent you from entering the correct full street name of the address you are trying to find.. It doesn't tell you why it has a fettish for a particular house number no matter what house number you put in for that street it returns the same number for Exampe; house numbers 78,80,5,6,9,18,12,7 all end up being displayed as 105 so answer that one.

When all else fails, read the Manual;)
