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.
