I am getting a Nuvi 1350 and I want to put in gas station POIs. How far in advance will I see the POIs. I mean how far can I zoom out and actually see the POI? Just a newbie curiosity. I won't be getting it untill Christmas.

When you download the file, you can set the distance you want the warning set for prior to download. If you set it for too far away from your present location, it will drive you crazy beeping at every service station within that setting.
If you need fuel, just do a search of poi and it will locate the nearest *** number of fuel stations.

Thanks. Doesn't it just show a picture of the poi's as you drive along?
I don,t need a warning alarm.

Zooming in will help.

andy32901 - If you have the POI with the BMP icon uploaded to the Garmin you will have to zoom into the 200 foot level to see the icons.
