Help!

I'm trying to input this address into my nuvi 360 but I must be doing something wrong - it's all okay right up until I put the street name in. Is there a particular way to input French stretnames?

191 Rue des Fontaines - 76480 JUMIEGES - Normandie - France

I only had a Garmin for a short while, but I found posycode first, which gave either the town or choice of towns, then street, worked usually. A big problem I've found is that street names and occasionaly place names don't always tally, even on a map. For example they sometimes leave off St. this or that if it's a long name.

It is not in Garmin software v8, but by looking at Google I found it to be:- N49.43382 E0.81834

Google:-

Where to?
Spell country F(rance)
City Jumieges
Number 191
Street Fontaines

Did it on my 660

So did

Spell country F(rance)
Postal Code 7648(0)
Number 191
Street Fontaines

Both brought up two choices that seemed to be the same.
