Mounting on the Windshield

Check your state and local traffic laws before mounting. Currently, state

laws in California and Minnesota prohibit drivers from using suction

mounts on their windshields while operating motor vehicles. Other

Garmin dashboard or friction mounting options should be used. See the

Important Safety and Product Information guide for more details.

1. Plug the power cable into the bottom of the mount. Plug

the other end into a 12/24-Volt receptacle in your vehicle.

2. Clean and dry your windshield and the suction cup with a

lint-free cloth. Place the suction cup on the windshield.

3. Flip the lever back, toward the windshield.

4. Flip up the GPS antenna. Fit the bottom of your nüvi into

the cradle.

5. Tilt the nüvi back until it snaps into place.

6. If your power cable has an antenna with suction cups

attached, use the suction cups to route the antenna

vertically on the windshield.

To remove the nüvi from the cradle, press the small tab on the

bottom of the cradle up, and tilt the top of the nüvi forward.

Do not leave your GPS unit exposed in an unattended vehicle on a hot

day. To prevent damage, remove it from the vehicle; or store it out of

direct sunlight, such as in the glove box. See the specifications in the

owner’s manual. For more information, see www.garmin.com/safety.
