Is there a way

Not heard of this. What type of font are you using and are you using English on the GPS?

Make sure it is something like arial or courier. You may need to show us the file and make sure it is formatted correctly.

Could it be that you didn't save the csv file as a text file. A text file won't have any special symbols or characters.

I would check the file

I would check the file again. Possibly re download it, and then reinstall it. Watch what it says on the POI loader when you install it. Make sure it looks right.
