Ways to Charge Your nüvi

Use the vehicle power cable.
Use the USB cable.
Use an optional AC adapter cable.

Calibrating the Screen

If the touch screen is not responding properly, 

calibrate the touch screen. Turn the nüvi off and 

then back on. Slide the 

Power

 key to the right 

(lock). Hold your finger on the screen for about 

30 seconds until the calibration screen appears. 

Follow the on-screen instructions.

Resetting the nüvi

If the nüvi screen stops functioning, turn the 

nüvi off and on again. If this does not help, slide 

the 

Power

 key to the left and hold for 8 seconds. 

Turn the nüvi back on. The nüvi should operate 

normally.



Locking Your nüvi

Garmin Lock

 is a theft-deterrent system that 

locks your nüvi. Each time you turn on the nüvi, 

enter the PIN or drive to the security location. 

1.  Touch 

Tools

 > 

Settings 

Security

2.  Touch the button below 

Garmin Lock

3.  Enter a 4-digit PIN and drive to a security 

location.

What is a Security Location?

Select a location you return to often, such as 

your home, for your security location. If the 

nüvi has satellite signals and you are at the 

security location, you do not need to enter the 

PIN.

 

noTe: 

If you forget your PIN and your 

security location, you must send your nüvi 

to Garmin to get it unlocked. You must 

also send a valid product registration or 

proof of purchase. 

Additional Maps

data from Garmin and load the maps on your 

nüvi’s internal memory or on an optional SD 

card. Also, check

update.jsp

software is available. 

To find out the version of the maps that are 

loaded on your nüvi, open the Menu page.

enable additional maps, you need your unit ID 

(see 

page 21

) and serial number (located near 

the power connector). 
To load maps, routes, or waypoints to your 

nüvi memory or SD card, select the name for 

your nüvi drive or SD card drive. Refer to the 

MapSource Help file for more information. 

Updating the Software

1.  Go to 

www.garmin.com/products/

 and download WebUpdater to 

your computer.

2.  Connect the nüvi to your computer using 

the mini-USB cable.

instructions. 

After confirming that you want to perform an 

update, WebUpdater automatically downloads 

the update and installs it on your nüvi.
