Using MSN ® Direct
The MSN Direct Receiver and nüvi must be

Receiving Content
It can take several hours to receive all the
content the first time you use it, after you
have traveled long distances, or after you

connected to external power.
NOTE: Garmin is not responsible for the
accuracy of the MSN Direct content.
