When searching using a postcode, your results depend on the type of postcode used in the country that you are searching in.
The following types of postcodes are used:
Street postcodes
Countries such as the Netherlands and the United Kingdom use this type of postcode. When you search using this type of postcode, enter the postcode, then leave a space and then optionally enter the house number. For example, "1017CT 35". Your device then plans a route to a specific house or building on a specific street.
Area postcodes
Countries such as Germany, France and Belgium use this type of area postcode. If you search using an area postcode, your results include all the streets in a city district, the whole town, or the villages within that postcode.
You may get results from multiple countries if you enter an area postcode.
Note: If you search using an area postcode, you will not get a single address in your results.
This type of postcode is still very useful in reducing the number of search results. For example, a search for Neustadt in Germany returns a long list of possible results. Adding a space followed by the area postcode narrows the results down to the Neustadt that you are looking for.
As another example, if you want to search in a city, enter an area postcode and select the city centre you are searching for from the results.
