Welcome to the forum, you have a Garmin i3 Street Pilot (the number CAN210 is etched on the back, switch it on and the boot screen should light up with i3 in the middle)

This device is fully supported by the PocketGPSWorld database, first you need to subscribe to be able to download the database please see HERE for details.

Once subscribed you need to select the Garmin option from the "Sat Nav System" dropdown box. Next the UK_POILoader i3 NUVI ETC option, have a read through the help link for your device which can be found HERE - Mike

Many thanks,just downloaded bout 11,000 POI,just one question,if these are speed cams will it warn me before they approach on this system? Do I just leave it set on view map for this to happen?

Thanks and sorry to be a newbie pain.

OK, if you have the POI's for the Cameras on your device start the device then go to Settings/ Navigation/ Proximity Alerts and make sure this is selected to ON - and thats it enjoy the device.

Take it out for a drive past a few cameras and see what you find to make sure it is working.

If you find the camera alerts are at the wrong speeds i.e. too low relative to the actual road speed limit simply re-install the POI's via POILoader but set the option to use MPH rather than KPH (this one catches loads of people out) - Mike
