My nüvi never gets
satellite signals.
Ensure that the GPS simulator is turned off. From
the Home screen, touch Settings > System >

Take your nüvi out of parking garages and away
from tall buildings and trees. Remain stationary for
several minutes.
The suction cup
will not stay on my
windshield.
Clean the suction cup and windshield with rubbing
alcohol. Dry it with a clean, dry cloth. Mount the

My nüvi does not
charge in my vehicle.
Ensure that the vehicle is turned on and is supplying
power to the power outlet.
Your nüvi can only charge between 32°F and 113°F

direct sunlight or in a hot environment, it cannot
charge.
My battery does not
stay charged for very
long.
To maximize the time between charges, turn down
the backlight. Touch Tools > Settings > Display >
