Mounting on the Windshield

Check your state and local traffic laws before mounting. Currently, state 

laws in California and Minnesota prohibit drivers from using suction 

mounts on their windshields while operating motor vehicles. Other 

Garmin dashboard or friction mounting options should be used. See the 

Important Safety and Product Information

 guide for more details.

1. Plug the power cable into the back of the 

mount. Plug the other end into a 12/24-Volt 

receptacle in your vehicle.

2. Clean and dry your windshield and the 

suction cup with a lint-free cloth. Place the 

suction cup on the windshield. 

3. Flip the lever back, toward the windshield. 

4. Flip up the GPS antenna. Fit the bottom of your nüvi into 

the cradle.

5. Tilt the nüvi back until it snaps into place.

button on the top of the nüvi.

Charging the nüvi

Connect the nüvi to the suction mount and the

Connect the USB cable to the nüvi and your computer.

Connect the AC adapter to the nüvi and a wall outlet 

(included with the nüvi 360 and 370). 

Acquiring Satellites

1. Go outdoors to an open area, 

away from tall buildings and 

trees.

2. Flip up the GPS antenna on 

the back of the nüvi, so that it is 

parallel to the ground.

3. Turn on the nüvi. Acquiring 

satellite signals can take a few 

minutes. 

The 

 bars indicate satellite strength. When the bars are 

green, the nüvi has acquired satellite signals; now you can 

select a destination and navigate to it.
