You can try to load Garmin South America city navigator along Mapear map in device and see if search will work.

Thanks catymag.

When you say "Garmin South America city navigator", you mean the one that must be bought directly from Garmin, which is tied to the device Serial number and so on? With this you mean it may not be possible to use the device with "custom" maps but only with the Garmin ones? Is there a free alternative?
