About Usage Modes

There are two usage modes:
Automobile and Pedestrian. In
Automobile mode, your nüvifone
calculates routes for automobiles.

These routes obey trafc laws, such

as one-way streets. Your nüvifone
uses typical automobile speeds when
estimating your arrival time.

In Pedestrian mode, your nüvifone
calculates routes for walking. These
routes avoid highways in favor
of smaller streets. Your nüvifone
uses typical walking speeds when
estimating your arrival time.

Your nüvifone automatically
changes between Automobile mode
and Pedestrian mode based on the
following criteria:

If you are not navigating a route,

•
and the nüvifone is in the cradle,
it is in Automobile mode.

Follow Your Route

If you are not navigating a route,

•
and the nüvifone is not in the
cradle, it is in Pedestrian mode.

If you are navigating a route, the

•
nüvifone remains in the mode in
which the route was created.

If you create a route that is longer

•
than 5 miles, the nüvifone uses
Automobile mode.

There are separate route preferences
for each usage mode. For more
information, see page 75.

When calculating your route, the
nüvifone examines the current

trafc and automatically optimizes

the route for the shortest time. If a

severe trafc delay occurs on your

route while you are navigating, the
nüvifone automatically recalculates
the route. You might still be routed

through trafc if no better alternative

routes exist.

If a non-severe trafc delay occurs

on your route, the trafc icon
shows how much time the delay has
added to your route. This time is

nüvifone G60 user’s guide 81

Reset the nüvifone

If the nüvifone stops functioning,
turn off the nüvifone, and then turn
on the nüvifone.

About GPS Satellite Signals

Your nüvifone must acquire GPS
(Global Positioning System) satellite
signals to navigate. The nüvifone
automatically attempts to acquire
satellite signals.

If you are indoors, near tall buildings
or trees, or in a parking garage, your
nüvifone might not acquire satellites.
To acquire satellite signals more
quickly, take your nüvifone outside,
to an area free from tall obstructions.

Appendix

About the Battery

The battery icon in the status
bar indicates the status of the internal
battery. To increase the accuracy of
the battery gauge, fully discharge
the battery and then fully charge it;
do not unplug the nüvifone until it is
totally charged.

Maximize the Battery Life

Turn down the backlight at

•

Settings > Display. Touch the

button under Brightness.

Lock your nüvifone if you are not

•
using it. See page 9 and page 70
for more information.

Do not leave your nüvifone in

•
direct sunlight. Avoid prolonged
exposure to excessive heat.

Replace the Battery

WARNING: Only use the correct

battery type. Using an incorrect
battery may present a risk of
explosion.

If you need to replace the battery
in the nüvifone, use a Garmin­approved lithium-ion battery. For
more information on purchasing a
replacement battery, go to

www.garmin.com.

WARNING: Do not use a sharp

object to remove the battery. A
sharp object may puncture the
battery which may present a risk

of re, chemical burn, electrolyte

leak, and/or injury.

Contact your local waste disposal
department for information on
properly disposing of the battery and
device.

Change the Fuse in the Vehicle Power Cable

If your device does not charge
in your vehicle, you may need to
replace the fuse located at the tip of

NOTE: When replacing the fuse, do
not lose any of the small pieces and
make sure they are put back in the
proper position.

1. Unscrew the
end piece,
and remove it.

2. Remove the
fuse (glass
and silver
cylinder), and
replace it with a 1A fast blow fuse
of the same size.

3. Ensure that the silver tip is
located in the end piece. Screw
on the end piece.

Use the enclosed mounting disk to
mount your device to the dashboard
and comply with certain state and
local regulations.

NOTE: The permanent mounting

adhesive is extremely difcult to

remove after it is installed.

1. Clean and dry the dashboard
where you are placing the disk.

2. Remove the backing from the
adhesive on the bottom of the
disk.

3. Place the disk on the dashboard.

4. Remove the clear plastic cover
from the top of the disk.

5. Place the suction cup mount
on top of the disk. Flip the lever

Troubleshooting

Problem/Question Solution/Answer

My nüvifone will not
acquire satellites.

My nüvifone will not
turn on.

Ensure the data connection is turned on.

•
From the Home screen, touch Settings > Phone >

Data Connection > On.

Ensure that the GPS simulator is turned off.

•
From the Home screen, touch Settings > System
> General > GPS Simulator > Off.
Ensure that you are receiving satellite signals.

•
Touch View Map.
Touch the vehicle icon.
Touch > Satellite Info.
Verify that the GPS antenna is unobstructed. You

•
must be outdoors or in a vehicle and have a clear
view of the sky. Solid materials (except untinted
glass), buildings, and dense trees can block
satellite signals.
Ensure that the GPS has enough time to initialize.

•

When the GPS is turned on for the rst time, it

may take a few minutes to initialize.

Charge the battery.

•
Replace the battery. See page 82 for more
