About GPS Satellite
Signals
Your nüvi must acquire GPS (Global
Positioning System) satellite signals to
navigate. If you are indoors, near tall
buildings or trees, or in a parking garage,
your nüvi cannot acquire satellites.
Go outside to an area free from tall
obstructions to use your nüvi.
When your nüvi has acquired satellite
signals, the signal strength bars on the
Menu page are green . When it
loses satellite signals, the bars turn red or
are empty .
For more information about GPS, go to
www.garmin.com/aboutGPS.
Caring for Your nüvi
Your nüvi contains sensitive electronic
components that can be permanently
damaged if exposed to excessive shock
or vibration. To minimize the risk of
damage to your nüvi, avoid dropping
your unit and operating it in high-shock
and high-vibration environments.
