Locking Your nüvi

Garmin Lock is a theft-deterrent

system that locks your nüvi. Each

time you turn on the nüvi, enter the

PIN or drive to the security location.

1. Touch

Tools

>

Settings

>

Security

.

2. Touch the button below

Garmin

Lock

.

3. Enter a 4-digit PIN and drive to a

security location.

What is a Security Location?

Notice

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.
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.
