Problem/Question

Solution/Answer

My nüvi never gets

satellite signals.

Take your nüvi out of parking garages and away from tall buildings and trees. Remain stationary for several minutes.

My nüvi does not charge

in my vehicle.

Your nüvi can only charge between 32°F and 113°F (0°C and 45°C). If the nüvi is placed in direct sunlight or in a hot environment, it

cannot charge.

How do I clear all my

user data?

Hold your finger on the lower-right corner of the nüvi’s screen while it is turning on. Keep your finger pressed until the message

appears. Touch

Yes

to clear all user data.

The nüvi is locked

up/frozen.

If the nüvi screen stops functioning, turn the nüvi off and on again. If this does not help, slide the

Power

key to the left and hold for 8

seconds. Turn the nüvi back on. The nüvi should operate normally.

The touch screen is not

responding to my taps

properly.

Turn the nüvi off and then back on. Slide the

Power

key to the right (lock). Hold your finger on the screen for about 30 seconds until

the calibration screen appears. Follow the on-screen instructions.

My battery gauge does

not seem accurate.

Allow the unit to fully discharge, and then fully charge it (without interrupting the charge cycle).

My phone will not

connect to the nüvi.

Touch

Tools

Bluetooth

. Verify that the Bluetooth field is set to

Enabled

.

Make sure your phone is turned on and is less than 10 meters (about 33 feet) away from your nüvi.

for more help.

How do I know my nüvi

is in USB mass storage

mode?

When your nüvi is in USB mass storage mode, a picture of a nüvi connected to a computer is shown. Also, you should see two new

removable disk drives listed in

My Computer

.

My computer never

senses that the nüvi is

connected.

1. Unplug the USB cable from your computer.
2. Turn the nüvi off.
3. Plug the USB cable into your computer and your nüvi. The nüvi automatically turns on and goes into USB mass storage mode.
