Default Speed Camera Updates?

Hi, I have a new XC60 and updated maps last month to version 31421079.

I like the speed cams warning but note that many new speed cams are not included. Does anyone know how these get added to the sensus nav system and how/if we can report new ones to be added?

I also have a life time membership to pocketGPSWorld.com (PGPSW) which means I can download their speed cam database. I have done this but often means when there is a speed cam in the sensus nav and also in the PGPSW download I get two beeps as the Nav system warns me of both POIs! This can be annoying so I have the following additional questions:

1 Can I turn off POI warnings just for the Sensus Nav speed cam POIs?
2 Can I give the PGPSW speed cam a speed cam symbol rather than the heart?

two answers - IIRC correctly you can turn off the XC60 alerts in the menu structure, I will need to try and recall where (They are not called Speed Cameras, therefore don't look for that!)

The second is you can change the symbol but only to those included in the XC60 system and that you are allowed to choose from which for Stored Location is VERY limited.

I also don't think that you will get an advance warning from the Stored Locations (namely your added cameras) but happy to be proved wrong

I confirm that the choice of icons for stored locations is limited: I chose the star for danger zones here in France. It is, however, possible, to set up a sound alert for stored locations by category. Just be sure to keep the speed cameras in a category of their own, or you will get a sound alert for everything else that is there!

I use the pocketGPSWorld speed camera database, but am find the Volvo Nav doesn't give adequate warning of the speed cameras as the car approaches them. I am almost on top of the camera when the warning sound activates. Mine displays a explanation mark in a triangle.
