Appendix
Avoiding Theft
• To avoid theft, remove the unit
and mount from sight when not
in use. Remove the residue left
on the windshield by the suction
cup.
• Do not keep your unit in the
glove compartment.
• Register your product at
http://my.garmin.com.
• Use the Garmin Lock feature. See
below for more information.
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?
Your security location should be a
location you return to often, such as
your home. If the nüvi has satellite
signals and you are at the security
location, you do not need to enter
the PIN.
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.
Calibrating the Screen
1. Turn off the nüvi.
2. Hold the upper-left corner of the
screen while turning on the nüvi.
3. Release the power key when the
Garmin screen appears.
