• Verify the area of the windshield in front of the camera is 

cleared by the windshield wipers, and move the device, if 

necessary.

My memory card has degraded and needs to 

be replaced

All microSD

®

 memory cards wear out after they are overwritten a 

large number of times. Because the dash camera records 

continuously, you should replace the memory card periodically 

(

Replacing the Memory Card

, page 11

). Your device detects 

memory card errors automatically and alerts you when it is time 

to replace your memory card.
You can take these actions to help extend the useful life of the 

memory card.
• Turn off the device when your vehicle is not in use.

If your device is not connected to an ignition-switched vehicle 

power outlet, you should turn off the device when your 

vehicle is not in use to prevent the dash camera from 

recording unneeded footage.

• Transfer saved video footage to a computer.

The memory card lasts longer when more free space is 

available on the card.

• Use a high-quality memory card with a speed rating of class 

10 or higher.
Purchase your replacement memory card from a high-quality 

manufacturer and a reputable vendor.

Appendix

Replacing the Memory Card

NOTICE

You should only remove the memory card if you need to replace 

it. Removing the card may cause the most recent video footage 

to be corrupted. To transfer files to a computer, you should 

leave the card in the Garmin Speak Plus device and connect the 

device to your computer using a USB cable (

Videos and Photos 

on Your Computer

, page 7

).

You can replace the camera memory card to increase the 

capacity or to replace a card that has reached the end of its 

useful life. The camera requires a microSD or microSDHC 

memory card of up to 64GB with a speed rating of class 10 or 

higher.

1

Press the current memory card in until it clicks, and release 

the card.

TIP: 

To avoid accidental card removal and help ensure 

uninterrupted recording, the memory card is recessed in the 

case and fits tightly. You may need to press it using a 

fingernail or small coin, and you may need to remove it from 

the slot using tweezers.

2

Remove the old card from the slot.

3

Insert the new memory card   into the slot  .

Pairing Another Smartphone with Your 

Garmin Speak Plus Device

You can manually enable pairing mode on your Garmin 

Speak Plus device to pair it with a new smartphone or an 

additional smartphone. This is useful if you purchase a new 

smartphone or if multiple people use your Garmin Speak Plus 

device.

1

With the Garmin Speak Plus device turned on, hold   for 

about 5 seconds until the LED ring shows a spinning orange 

light.
The spinning orange light indicates the device is in pairing 

mode.

2

From the app store on the new smartphone, install and open 

the   Garmin Drive app.

3

Follow the on-screen instructions to pair and set up the 

device.

Each time the Garmin Speak Plus turns on, it attempts to 

connect to the most recently connected smartphone first. If that 

smartphone is not within range, it connects to another paired 

smartphone within range.

Pairing an Additional Garmin Speak Plus 

Device with Your Smartphone

If you have Garmin Speak Plus devices in multiple vehicles, you 

can pair each of them with your smartphone. You must use the 

Bluetooth settings on your smartphone to pair additional 

devices.

NOTE: 

Only one device can have an active connection to the 

app at a time.

1

Turn off all your Garmin Speak Plus devices except the one 

you want to pair.

2

With the Garmin Speak Plus turned on, hold   for 5 seconds 

to manually enter pairing mode.
The LED ring glows amber and animates while the device is 

in pairing mode.
