Me:
"POI Off"

Nav:
"Now showing whorehouse icons", or something like that.

There is a soft key to reset everything to the default positions, that includes POI off. Just remember to reset your region code and similar things.

POI off is about the only voice command that my nav will recognize properly. Of all the functions of the Nav, the one I dislike is voice command. BMW is not any better either - maybe it is my voice it doesn't like.....

It is a family joke in the Vette. I say Italian Resturants...I get "motel icons on" I say bank...it says "golf course Icons on"
It helps pass the time on a slow trip.

for the original poster.....as others have said...POI OFF ...sometimes works.

The voice recognition in my wife's CTS is much better than the one in my C6. About the only voice command I can get to work on my C6 reliably is "POI Off".
