The device may have trouble finding an address if there is a typo.
- Double-check spelling if the address can't be found
- Searching for a street using abbreviations is generally fine (e.g. 123 Main St NE)
- It is often easier to leave the abbreviation out (e.g. 123 Main) though since addresses are sometimes abbreviated in different ways
- This will usually give a list of results where the correct address can be selected
- The device will be searching for the address as it is typed and may provide suggestions
