User’s manual maps + more
- 12 - Before you begin
2.3.1 Navigation safety information
Use the navigation system at your own risk.
Caution! To prevent accidents, do not operate the navigation system
while driving.
Caution! Do not look at the screen unless it is absolutely safe to do so!
Caution! Traffic regulations have priority over any instructions from the
navigation system.
Caution! Follow the instructions of the navigation system only when the
circumstances and the road traffic regulations allow you to do so! The
navigation system will still guide you to your destination even if you
deviate from the calculated route.
Caution! When you use the navigation device in a vehicle, mount it
only in the supplied cradle.
Caution! Check that the cradle is secured and adjusted properly before
each journey.
Note: If you have not understood the spoken instructions or are unsure
about what to do at the next junction, you can refer briefly to the map or
schematic view of your navigation system.
2.3.2 Safety information for the navigation device
Caution! Protect the device from moisture. The device is neither
waterproof nor protected against splash water.
Caution! Do not open the case of the navigation device under any
circumstances.
Caution! Do not expose the navigation device to extreme heat or cold.
This may damage the device or impair its function (see "Technical data"
on page 162).

Note: Create a backup of the data which exist in the internal memory of
your navigation device.
This is very easy to do with the Fresh software which can be
downloaded free of charge from our website www.garmin.com/pid.
2.4 Mounting/removing the navigation system
The vehicle is already prepared for the navigation system to be
installed. In the middle of the dashboard is a slot for the cradle of the
navigation device. Power is supplied to the device through this cradle.
Radio traffic information is received via the antenna of the car radio.
The navigation device can be used to control the car radio, and it
receives vehicle data such as consumption, amount of fuel in the tank,
speed, etc.
2.4.1 Removing the navigation device
When you receive your new vehicle, the navigation device is already
installed. To prevent theft we recommend that you do not leave the
navigation system mounted in the vehicle when you park.
Removing the navigation device from the cradle
1. Press the button at the top of the cradle (see figure).
2. Pull the bottom edge of the navigation device away from the cradle
slightly.
3. Lift the device up and out.
Page 14
User’s manual maps + more
- 14 - Before you begin
Removing the cradle
1. Press the button at the bottom of the cradle (see figure).
2. Holding the button pressed, take the cradle out of the opening.
Fitting the cover
1. Place the cover over the opening.
2. Press the cover fully into the opening.
2.4.2 Mounting the navigation device
Caution! Be sure to refer to all the safety information in the chapter
"Important safety information" on page 11.
Removing the cover
In the middle of the dashboard is the opening for the cradle of the
navigation device.
► Remove the cover from over the opening in the dashboard.
Fitting the cradle
1. Place the cradle, correctly aligned, over the opening provided for it.
2. Press the cradle into the opening until you hear and feel that it
latches in place.
Fitting the navigation device in the cradle
On the back of the navigation device you will see a circle with two
recesses.

Supplying power to the navigation device
The navigation device is supplied with power via the cradle as soon as
the vehicle ignition or radio is switched on. At the same time the
device's battery is charged so that it can also be used outside the
vehicle, e.g. for pedestrian navigation.
Note: It takes approx. 3 hours to charge the device when the battery is
flat. A fully charged battery enables up to 3 hours of use depending on
the device configuration.
Traffic information (TMC)
The navigation device has an integrated TMC receiver. As soon as it is
mounted, the device can receive traffic message updates. If required, it
can change your route dynamically, e.g. in order to avoid a traffic jam.
2.4.3 Memory card
A memory card is not required to operate the navigation system
because all the data needed for navigation are stored in the internal
memory of the device.
Note: If you purchase additional navigation maps, they must be saved
in the internal memory of the navigation device. Navigation data on the
memory card are not used. The slot for memory cards is intended only
for media which you can play back with the media player or the picture
viewer.
When you connect the navigation system to your computer using a USB
cable, the internal memory is detected as the 'NAVIGON' drive. The slot
for the memory card is detected as the 'NAVIGON SD' drive.
Data backups, software updates and navigation map updates can be
carried out quickly and conveniently with the Fresh software, which you
can download free of charge from the website www.garmin.com/pid.
Caution! Do not remove the memory card from the device while the
data saved on it are in the process of being used, e.g. for playing back
music or viewing pictures. Data may be lost as the result.
Note: A change of memory card is detected only when the device has
been switched on. If the memory card is not detected, insert it again
when the device is on and running.

2.5 Navigating with GPS
GPS is based on a total of at least 24 satellites orbiting the Earth and
continuously transmitting signals of their position and time. The GPS
receiver receives this data and calculates its own geographical position
on the basis of the information transmitted by the various satellites.
Data from at least three satellites is required for positioning with an
acceptable degree of accuracy. With data from four or more satellites it
is possible in addition to determine the position's altitude above sea
level. Positioning is accurate to within three metres.
Once the navigation device has determined your position, this position
can be used as a starting point for calculating a route.
The map data on your navigation device includes the geographical
coordinates of all digitally recorded points of interest, streets and
places. This enables the device to calculate a route between a starting
point and a destination.
Calculation of the current position and its representation on the map
take place approximately once every second. In other words, your
current position is always shown on the map.
3 Switching the navigation device on and
off
The navigation device can be in one of four states:
► On: The navigation device is on and can be operated.
► Screensaver: The navigation device is on. However, you see only
a screensaver. As long as the screensaver is visible, the device
cannot be operated.
The screensaver is available only when the device is mounted in
the vehicle.
If you switch on the screensaver while navigation is in progress, you
will continue to hear the navigation announcements from the
device.
If music is being played when the screensaver is switched on, the
music will continue.
► Standby: When you switch the navigation device to standby mode,
the next time it is switched on it will start very quickly. In standby
mode the device still consumes a small amount of energy however.
Depending on how full the battery is, it can become flat within a few
days or up to a few weeks.

Switching the navigation device on and off - 17 -
► Off: When you switch off the device, it consumes no energy. It can
then take several months for the battery to become flat. Switching
the device on again triggers a restart which can take some time
(approx. 60 seconds). Your settings and your saved destinations
and routes will be retained.
The procedure for switching the navigation device on and off depends
on whether it is mounted in the vehicle or not.
3.1 Device mounted in the vehicle
When the navigation device is mounted in the vehicle, it does not need
to be switched on or off.
3.1.1 Switching on the device
The navigation device switches on when you switch on the ignition.
Note: The device also switches on when it is fitted in the vehicle while
the ignition is already on.
If the navigation device was previously set to standby, the window

functions of the navigation application.
Returning to the Start window
You can go to the START window at any time by tapping on on the
(Start) button. This does not result in the current application
being closed.
Initialising the GPS receiver
Note: Good reception of GPS data requires an unobstructed path from
the GPS receiver to the satellites. Tunnels, narrow thoroughfares
between buildings and reflecting house fronts can restrict GPS
reception greatly or make it impossible. If the GPS receiver or the
navigation device is inside a vehicle, a metallised windscreen or a
windscreen heater can be the cause of poor GPS reception.
As soon as the navigation device has been switched on, initialisation of
the GPS receiver will begin.
The integrated GPS receiver is not initialised for the first time until the
navigation application is started for the first time. It can take up to
5 minutes to initialise the GPS receiver for the first time.
Each time you switch on the navigation device after this, GPS reception
will start within a short time.
If the navigation device has been switched off for more than a week, the
next initialisation can take up to 10 minutes.
Note: Directly after the GPS symbol indicates the GPS ready state, the
accuracy of the positioning may be reduced for a few minutes.
In the top right hand corner of the screen you will see the GPS symbol.
As soon as data from at least three satellites is received, the symbol will
change to (GPS ready).
Note: Initialisation takes the least time if you do not start driving until
the initialisation has finished.
For more details about the symbol refer to the chapter "GPS" on

Route profile
Route profiles take account of the characteristics and special aspects of
the different modes of transport. For example a route profile for bicycles
will exclude motorways from the route calculation but will include roads
which other vehicles are not allowed to use. And a bicycle profile will
calculate different arrival times than a motorcycle profile.
Note: If you select a pedestrian profile, a type of navigation specially
developed for pedestrians will be started (see "Navigation in Pedestrian
mode" on page 70).
► Tap on the Route profile button if you want to select a different
route profile.
For details of how to create and select route profiles refer to the chapter
"Route profiles" on page 78.
Note: When you load routes which originate from a different provider
than GARMIN, it may be impossible for you to change the route profile
of this route.
Turn-by-Turn list
If you want to see detailed directions for the route, tap on Options >
Turn-by-Turn list.
For details of the functions in the window refer to chapter "Turn-by-Turn
list" on page 95.
MyRoutes
When the MyRoutes function is activated, the navigation system
calculates up to three routes on the basis of the currently selected route
profile and shows them on the map in different colours (blue, green,
red) and with a number.
For each route there is a button with the same number and a symbol in
the same colour.
When calculating the time of arrival or the trip time, the navigation
system takes account of additional factors such as day of the week,
time of day and particularly your previous driving profile.
The route which corresponds best to the selected route profile is
marked with "MyRoute".
Page 58
User’s manual maps + more
- 58 - Navigation
Note: The MyRoutes function can be used only for routes with only one
route point. For routes with two or more route points only one route is
calculated and displayed, regardless of whether you have activated the
function or not.
Note: Even when the MyRoutes function is activated, sometimes only
one additional route or no additional routes at all can be calculated for a
particular route. No further suggestion is then shown on the button in
question.
Start navigation
► Tap on the button of the route which you want to use for the
navigation.
Traffic obstruction along the route
If you select a route for which traffic obstructions have been announced,
the P
REVIEW TMC window may open before the navigation starts (see

► Select whether you want to use the original route (Current route) or
a detour (Alternative route).
Driving range warning
The (Driving range warning) symbol will appear alongside the
route under the following circumstances:
► With the vehicle's current driving range you cannot reach the
destination.
► With the vehicle's current driving range you can reach the
destination, but from there you cannot reach a charging station.
If you select a route with range warning, you will be asked whether you
want to calculate a Multi-Stop route.
Note: The Multi-Stop route considers charging stations along the route
and includes essential charging stops in the route calculation if the
destination is not within range. Consideration is given to all private
charging stations (Favourites) as well as to the public charging stations
recorded in the map.
Traffic information (TMC) is then available to a limited extent only.
For more details refer to the chapter "Multi-Stop route" on page 99.
Note: If the planned route includes a track, no range warning can be
issued. Nor is it possible to calculate a Multi-Stop route.

10.1 Route profiles
Route profiles define the characteristics and special aspects of the
different modes of transport which are to be taken into account when
calculating routes. For example a route profile for bicycles will exclude
motorways from the route calculation but will include roads which other
vehicles are not allowed to use. And different arrival times will be
calculated for a bicycle than for a motorcycle for example.
10.1.1 Route profile settings
A route profile is made up of several settings:
► Speed profile: Defines the mode of transport (e.g. Bicycle,
Pedestrian, Car, ...).
► Type of route: Defines the type of route which is to be calculated
(e.g. Short route, Fast route, ...).
► Consider traffic information: defines whether traffic messages are to
be considered when calculating the route
► Motorways, Ferries, Restricted areas: Defines whether these types
of road are allowed to be used.
► Use of toll roads: defines whether toll roads are allowed to be used
when calculating the route.

take a toll road you will be prompted to make the corresponding
setting(s).
For each setting there is a (Help) button. When you tap on it you
will see an exact definition of the setting in question.
The number of possible settings depends on the selected speed profile.
For example, for the Pedestrian speed profile there are no Motorways
and Use of toll roads settings.

A basic profile is already defined for each speed profile.
Bicycle
Pedestrian
Lorry
Motorbike
Car
The speed profile of a basic profile cannot be changed. You can adapt

10.2 MyPOIs
You can create files with your own POIs. These files have to be made
available to your navigation system in a specific folder.
If you want to choose from your own POIs, you will find them under the
MyPOIs category of POIs. Each file with your own POIs is listed as a
sub-category. Each sub-category can have a personally created symbol
for representing your destinations on the map.
Page 82
User’s manual maps + more
- 82 - Useful functions
The navigation device can import a maximum of 10,000 POIs. These
destinations are allowed to be shared among a maximum of 40 subcategories.
10.2.1 Creating your own destinations
1. Open an empty document in an editor which can save the files in
UTF8 code (e.g. MS Notepad, Microsoft Word).
Note: The following description is based on the use of MS Notepad as
editor. If a different editor is used, the saving of the file and its UTF-8
coding (point 4-9) may differ from this description.
2. For each destination create a data record (one line) with the
following form:
► Longitude. Begin the entry with a minus sign if you want to
enter a western degree of longitude. The longitude must be
entered as a decimal number with a dot as the decimal sign.
► Comma (as list separator)
► Latitude. Begin the entry with a minus sign if you want to enter
a southern degree of latitude. The latitude must be entered as a
decimal number with a dot as the decimal sign.
► Comma (as list separator)
► Name of the destination. Any name is possible, but no commas
are allowed. If the use of a comma is indispensable, precede it
with a backslash ('\').
► Comma (as list separator)
► PHONENUMBER=
► A phone number. This entry can remain empty.
► Tilde ('~')
► Additional information. This entry can remain empty.
► Enter (in order to begin a new data record)
The address does not have to be included in the data record. It is
shown automatically when you select this POI for navigation.
Example:
9.94302,49.79906,Garmin Würzburg GmbH,PHONENUMBER=+4
9 931~Best Navigation Devices
3. Repeat step 2 for each destination you want to save in this file.
4. Click on File > Save.
5. Select a folder in which you want to save the data.
6. In the File type box select the All files option.
Page 83
User’s manual maps + more
Useful functions - 83 -
7. In the file name box enter a name of your choice followed by '.csv',
e.g. 'XYZ.csv'. Please note that the file name will appear in the
navigation system as a sub-category! This means that if you save a
file under the name 'XYZ.csv', the destinations of this file will appear
in the sub-category XYZ.
8. In the Encoding box select the UTF-8 option.
9. Tap on Save.
10.2.2 Symbols for your own POIs
For each sub-category of your own POIs you can create a symbol
which is used to represent the destinations of this sub-category on the
map.
These symbols must be graphic files with the following characteristics:
► File format bmp (Bitmap) or png (Portable Network Graphic)
► Size max. 40x25 pixels
The graphic files must be saved in the same folder as the files with the
POIs.
The file name must be the same as the name of the category.
Example:
Destinations of the XYZ sub-category are saved in the 'XYZ.csv' file.
They are represented on the map by the 'XYZ.bmp' symbol.
10.2.3 POI-Import: Importing your own POIs onto the navigation
device
The files you have created with your own POIs and the related symbols
must still be transferred to the navigation device. This is very easy to do
with the Fresh software which can be downloaded free of charge from
our website www.garmin.com/pid.

10.14 Optical parking system (OPS), Parking assistant
Note: Parking assistance is available only when the corresponding
sensors are fitted to the vehicle. Some vehicles have sensors only at
the rear, others can divide the space in front of or behind the vehicle
into different numbers of zones. Parking assistance varies from vehicle
to vehicle and can differ therefore from the description used in this
chapter. However, it always works in the way described here.
Note: Information about parking assistance can also be found in the
user manual issued for your vehicle, in section "OPS" or "Optical
parking system".
Parking assistance gives you assurance when manoeuvring,
particularly when parking. It indicates the distance and the position of
obstacles in front of and behind the vehicle.
Parking assistance is activated when you drive very slowly or when you
insert the reverse gear.
The space in front of and behind the vehicle is divided into several
zones. Each zone is monitored by a sensor.

- 98 - Useful functions
When you approach an obstacle, the distance to each of the sensors is
indicated visually by yellow bars. As soon as you get very close to the
obstacle, the bars turn red.
At the same time an audible warning is given as soon as the first
coloured bar appears. The audible warning comprises a sequence of
high-pitch tones. The closer the obstacle, the faster the sequence of
tones. When the first red bar appears, you will hear a continuous tone.
► Tap on the screen to hide the parking assistance..
Caution! It is possible that the distance from very narrow, pointed or
very low obstacles will not be correctly indicated. Similarly it is possible
that high obstacles such as branches will not be detected. Use of the
parking assistance does not release the driver from his duty to exercise
all due care.
Note: The optical and acoustic parking assistance is interrupted when a
mobile phone is connected to the navigation device and a call is
received.
10.15 Door monitoring
The door monitoring function always warns you when a door in your

10.16 Special functions for electric vehicles
10.16.1 Multi-Stop route
Note: This function is available only when
► the navigation device is correctly inserted in its cradle.
► the vehicle ignition is on.
► GPS reception is good enough to determine the current position.
The Multi-Stop route considers charging stations along the route and
includes essential charging stops in the route calculation if the
destination is not within range. Consideration is given to all private
charging stations (Favourites) as well as to the public charging stations
recorded in the map.
Calculation of a Multi-Stop route is offered in the following
circumstances:
► With the vehicle's current driving range you cannot reach the
destination.
► With the vehicle's current driving range you can reach the
destination, but from there you cannot reach a charging station.
Before navigation begins you will be presented with a window in which
you can choose between a Multi-Stop route or the current route.
► Tap on Multi-Stop route to have the system calculate a route with
the necessary charging stops.
Note: If the destination of the Multi-Stop route is not saved as a public
or private charging station, you will be asked at the beginning of the
navigation whether you can charge your vehicle there (see "Saving the
destination of a Multi-Stop route as a private charging station" on
page 102).
Note: The calculation of a Multi-Stop route can take far longer than the
calculation of a normal route.
Page 100
User’s manual maps + more
- 100 - Useful functions
Note: If there is only a sparse network of charging stations in the region
in which you are travelling, it may be impossible to calculate a MultiStop route.
If you have entered a complete address or a POI as destination, you
can also define whether your vehicle can be charged there. For more
details refer to the chapter "Private charging stations" on page 101.
Traffic information
If a new traffic message concerning the Multi-Stop route arises while
navigation is in progress, the Traffic information button will appear at
the right edge of the screen. This traffic message will be treated in
automatic mode (see "Preview TMC" in the section "Recalculate route:
Automatically" on page 106).
10.16.2 Driving range warning
Note: This function is available only when:
► GPS reception is good enough for positioning purposes
► the navigation device is correctly inserted in its cradle.
► the vehicle ignition is on.
► range warning was activated in the settings.
The system continuously calculates the current range and warns if there
will be only a small driving range remaining when you arrive at the
destination, at the next interim destination or at the next charging
station.
Note: The remaining driving range can be viewed at any time in the
TRIP COMPUTER window.
► In the START window tap on Car info > Trip computer (see also "Trip
computer" on page 111).
Activating the range warning
1. In the NAVIGATION window tap on Options > Settings > Navigation.
2. Set the Driving range warning setting to Yes.
Range warning during navigatio n
You will be warned if one of the following cases arises:
► There is only one more charging station or the home address within
range
► The next charging station and the home address are out of range
