The first time you turn on your navigation device, it may take several minutes to acquire satellite signals.

Turn on the device.

The forward collision warning system (FCWS) feature is for information only and does not replace your responsibility to observe all road and driving conditions, abide by all traffic regulations, and use safe driving judgment at all times. The FCWS relies on the camera to provide a warning of upcoming vehicles and, as a result, may have limited functionality in low visibility conditions. For more information, go to garmin.com

/warnings.

NOTE: This feature is not available in all areas or for all product models.

The FCWS feature alerts you when the device detects that you are not maintaining a safe distance between your vehicle and the vehicle in front of you. The device determines your vehicle speed using GPS, and it calculates an estimated safe following distance based on your speed. The FCWS activates automatically when your vehicle speed exceeds 48 km/hr (30 mph).

When the device detects that you are too close to the vehicle ahead of you, the device plays an audible alert, and a warning appears on the screen.

Forward Collision Warning System Performance Tips

Several factors affect the performance of the forward collision warning system (FCWS). Some conditions may prevent the FCWS feature from detecting a vehicle ahead of you.

• The FCWS feature activates only when your vehicle speed exceeds 50 km/h (30 mph).

• The FCWS feature may not detect a vehicle ahead of you when the camera's view of the vehicle is obscured by rain, fog, snow, sun or headlight glare, or darkness.

• The FCWS feature may not function properly if the camera is incorrectly aligned (Aligning the Camera, page 3).

• The FCWS feature may not detect vehicles greater than 40 m (130 ft.) away or closer than 5 m (16 ft.).

• The FCWS feature may not function properly if the camera placement settings do not correctly indicate your vehicle height or the placement of your device in the vehicle (Aligning

the Camera, page 3).

Lane Departure Warning System

WARNING

The lane departure warning system (LDWS) feature is for information only and does not replace your responsibility to observe all road and driving conditions, abide by all traffic regulations, and use safe driving judgment at all times. The LDWS relies on the camera to provide warnings for lane markers and, as a result, may have limited functionality in low visibility conditions. For more information, go to garmin.com

/warnings.

The LDWS feature alerts you when the device detects you may be crossing a lane boundary unintentionally. For example, the device alerts you if you cross some solid painted lane boundaries. The LDWS feature provides alerts only when your vehicle speed exceeds 64 km/h (40 mph). The alert appears on the left or right side of the screen to indicate which lane boundary you crossed.

Lane Departure Warning Performance Tips

Several factors affect the performance of the lane departure warning system (LDWS). Some conditions may prevent the LDWS feature from detecting lane departures.

• The LDWS feature provides alerts only when your vehicle speed exceeds 65 km/h (40 mph).

• The LDWS feature may not function properly if the camera is incorrectly aligned.

• The LDWS feature may not function properly if the camera placement settings do not correctly indicate your vehicle height or the placement of your device in the vehicle (Aligning

the Camera, page 3).

• The LDWS feature requires a clear, continuous view of the lane divider lines.

◦ Lane departures may not be detected when divider lines

are obscured by rain, fog, snow, extreme shadows, sun or headlight glare, road construction, or any other visual obstruction.

◦ Lane departures may not be detected if lane divider lines

are misaligned, missing, or heavily worn.

• The LDWS feature may not detect lane departures on extremely wide, narrow, or winding roads.

Troubleshooting

The suction cup will not stay on my windshield

Clean the suction cup and windshield with rubbing alcohol.

Dry with a clean, dry cloth.

Mount the suction cup (Mounting and Powering the Garmin

Device in Your Vehicle, page 1).

The mount does not hold my device in place while I drive

For the best results, you should keep the vehicle mount clean and position the device close to the suction cup.

If the device shifts position while you are driving, you should complete these actions.

• Remove the powered mount from the suction cup arm, and wipe the ball and socket with a cloth.

Dust and other debris may reduce the friction in the ball and socket joint and allow the joint to shift while you are driving.

• Rotate the hinged arm toward the suction cup as far as your windshield angle allows.

Positioning the device closer to the windshield reduces the effect of jarring and vibration from the road.

My device is not acquiring satellite signals

• Verify the location services feature is enabled.

• Take your device out of parking garages and away from tall buildings and trees.

• Remain stationary for several minutes.

The device does not charge in my vehicle

• Check the fuse in the vehicle power cable (Changing the

Fuse in the Vehicle Power Cable, page 25).

• Verify the vehicle is turned on and is supplying power to the power outlet.

• Verify the interior temperature of the vehicle is within the charging temperature range indicated in the specifications.

• In the vehicle fuse box, verify the fuse for the vehicle power outlet is not broken.

My battery does not stay charged for very long

• Decrease the screen brightness (Display Settings, page 21).

• Shorten the display timeout (Display Settings, page 21).

• Decrease the volume (Garmin® Overview, page 1).

• Turn off the wi-fi radio when it is not in use (Connecting to a

Wireless Network, page 21).

• Put the device in power saving mode when not in use (Turning the Device On or Off, page 1).

• Keep your device away from extreme temperatures.

• Do not leave your device in direct sunlight.

My video recordings are blurry

• Clean the camera lens (Cleaning the Camera Lens,

page 23).

• Clean the windshield in front of the camera.

• Verify the area of the windshield in front of the camera is cleared by the windshield wipers, and move the device, if necessary.

My memory card has degraded and needs to be replaced

All microSD memory cards wear out after they are overwritten a large number of times. Periodically formatting the card can extend the useful life and improve performance. Because the dash camera records continuously, you may need to replace the memory card periodically (Replacing the Dash Cam Memory

Card, page 4). Your device detects memory card errors

automatically and alerts you when it is time to format or replace your memory card.

You can take these actions to help extend the useful life of the memory card.

• Format the memory card at least one time every six months (Formatting the Dash Cam Memory Card, page 4).

• If the device displays a memory card error alert, first try formatting the memory card (Formatting the Dash Cam

Memory Card, page 4) and then, if necessary, replace the

memory card (Replacing the Dash Cam Memory Card,

page 4).

• Turn off the device when your vehicle is not in use. If your device is not connected to an ignition-switched vehicle

power outlet, you should turn off the device when your vehicle is not in use to prevent the dash camera from recording unneeded footage.

• Transfer saved video footage to a computer. The memory card lasts longer when more free space is

available on the card.

26 Troubleshooting

Page 31

• Use a memory card with a higher storage capacity. Because higher-capacity memory cards are overwritten less

frequently, they usually last longer.

• Use a high-quality memory card with a speed rating of class 10 or higher.

• Purchase your replacement memory card from a high-quality manufacturer and a reputable vendor.

My video recordings are choppy or incomplete

• For the best camera and video results, use a high-quality memory card with a speed rating of class 10 or higher.

A slower memory card may not record video quickly enough.

• If you are viewing videos on your smartphone using a wireless connection to the camera, try viewing them in another location with less wireless interference, or try transferring videos to the smartphone (Trimming and

Exporting a Video, page 4).

• Transfer important recordings to a computer or smartphone, and format the memory card (Formatting the Dash Cam

Memory Card, page 4).

• If the device displays a memory card error alert, first try formatting the memory card (Formatting the Dash Cam

Memory Card, page 4) and then, if necessary, replace the

memory card (Replacing the Dash Cam Memory Card,

page 4).

• Update your device to the latest software (Map and Software

Updates, page 22).

My device does not connect to my phone

• Select Settings > Bluetooth. The Bluetooth option must be enabled.

• Enable Bluetooth wireless technology on your phone and bring your phone within 10 m (33 ft.) of the device.

• Verify your phone is compatible. Go to www.garmin.com/bluetooth for more information.

• Complete the pairing process again. To repeat the pairing process, you must unpair your phone

and device (Deleting a Paired Bluetooth Device, page 17), and complete the pairing process (Live Services, Traffic, and

Smartphone Features, page 15).

Some smartphone features do not work

If you have paired your phone, but some smartphone features do not work, you can take these actions to resolve the issue.

• In the app store on your smartphone, update the Garmin Drive app to the most recent version.

• Verify the feature you want to use is enabled on your device or smartphone (Enabling or Disabling Bluetooth Features,

page 15).
