time you turn on the nüvi, enter the

.

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.

note: 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.
