After you park your vehicle, you can continue to your destination 

on foot using your Garmin Drive device or a compatible Garmin 

watch with Connect IQ (

Finding Your Destination Using Your 

Garmin Watch

, page 4

). Your device or Garmin watch can 

also guide you back to this parking spot when you return to your 

vehicle (

Finding Your Last Parking Spot

, page 4

).

Finding Your Destination Using Your Garmin Watch

Before you can use this feature, you must set up Watch Link 

(

Setting Up Watch Link

, page 12

).

NOTE: 

This feature is available only for Garmin Drive models 

with Bluetooth

®

 wireless technology. This includes models 

ending in LMT-S.
You can use your compatible Garmin watch to navigate from 

your vehicle to your destination, or from your destination back to 

your vehicle. This feature is especially useful for finding a 

location within a large venue, or when you have to park away 

from your destination and finish navigating on foot.

NOTE: 

GPS technology requires a clear view of the sky. The 

Watch Link app may not be able to provide guidance in indoor 

venues, such as shopping malls or airports.

1

On your watch, start the Watch Link app, and select 

Find My 

Destination

.

Your watch acquires a GPS signal and starts guiding you to 

your destination.

2

Walk toward your destination.

The destination indicator 

À

 shows the direction of your 

destination relative to the direction you are moving 

Á

. When 

the destination indicator appears at the top of the circle, you 

are heading toward your destination. The remaining distance 

to your destination 

Â

 appears below the circle. The progress 

bar 

Ã

 shows your progress toward your destination.

Finding Your Last Parking Spot

When you disconnect your Garmin Drive device from vehicle 

power, it saves your current location as a parking spot. If you 

have set up Watch Link, the device sends the parking spot 

location to your compatible Garmin watch (

Setting Up Watch 

Link

, page 12

). You can navigate back to your parking spot 

using either your Garmin Drive device or the Watch Link app on 

your watch.

TIP: 

If your Garmin Drive device is connected to a switched 

power outlet, it saves your parking spot each time you turn off 

your vehicle. If your device is connected to an non-switched 

power outlet, you must unplug the vehicle power cable to save 

your parking spot.
• On your Garmin Drive device, select 

Apps

 > 

Last Spot

 > 

Go!

.

• On your watch, start the Watch Link app, select 

Find My Car

and walk toward your parking spot.

NOTE: 

This feature is available only for Garmin Drive models 

with Bluetooth wireless technology. This includes models 

ending in LMT-S.

The destination indicator

destination relative to the direction you are moving

the destination indicator appears at the top of the circle, you 

are heading toward your destination. The remaining distance 

to your destination 

Â

 appears below the circle. The progress 

bar 

Ã
