Purchasing an Additional FM 

Subscription

 

NOTE: 

You do not need to activate the 

subscription that came with your GTM 12. Your 

subscription activates automatically. 

To renew your FM subscription or purchase an 

additional subscription, go to Garmin’s FM Traffic 

Web site at www.garmin.com/fmtraffic. Follow the 

steps on the Web site to obtain a 25-character traffic 

subscription code. Enter the code in your Garmin 

GPS device. Refer to the confirmation e-mail or Web 

page for instructions about entering the code. 
The traffic subscription code cannot be reused; you 

must obtain a new code each time you renew your 

FM traffic service subscription. The code is specific 

for the GTM 12 it was purchased for; it cannot be 

used on multiple GTM 12 devices.
