Red Light and Speed Cameras

NOTICE

Garmin is not responsible for the accuracy of or the
consequences of using a red light or speed camera database.

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

Information about red light and speed camera locations is
available in some areas for some product models. The device
alerts you when you approach a reported speed or red light
camera.

• In some areas, your device can receive live red light and
speed camera data while connected to a smartphone running
the Garmin Drive app.

• You can use the Garmin Express™ software (garmin.com

/express) to update the camera database stored on your

device. You should update your device frequently to receive
the most up-to-date camera information.

Incident Detection and Notifications

WARNING

The device allows you to send your location to an emergency
contact. This is a supplemental feature and should not be relied
upon as a primary method to obtain emergency assistance. The
Garmin Drive app does not contact emergency services on your
behalf.

Your zūmo device uses built-in sensors to detect a possible
vehicle incident.

• If you set up an incident contact, the device can send an
automated text message to that contact when it detects an
incident and your vehicle stops moving. This can help alert
the contact to your situation if you are not able to call or send
a message. This feature requires a connection to the Garmin
Drive app and an active mobile data connection to send a
message.

• If you have not set up an incident contact, the device
automatically displays the nearest address or geographic
coordinates when it detects an incident. This feature is
helpful if you need to tell emergency personnel your location.

• If you have an inReach® device connected to your zūmo
device, you can manually send an SOS when it detects an
incident.

Setting Up an Incident Contact

Before you can set up an incident detection contact, you must
complete these tasks:

• Connect your device to Garmin Drive (Pairing Your Phone

and Headset, page 13).

• Select Settings > Wireless Networks, and verify the Phone
calls option is enabled for your phone.

The device must have access to the Garmin Drive app and to
your smartphone phone book during the incident contact setup.
If you do not want to use your device for hands-free calling, you
can disable the Phone calls option after the incident contact
setup is complete.

Select Settings > Driver Assistance > Incident

1

Notification > Continue.

A list of your smartphone contacts appears.
Select a contact, and select Next.

2

Verify the contact's phone number, and select Next.

3

Enter your name or nickname, and select Done.

4

Review the sample incident message, and select Next.

5

Follow the on-screen instructions to inform your contact that

6

you have added them as an incident contact.
NOTE: The incident notification message includes the name

or nickname you entered, but it is not sent from your phone
number. The message is sent using a third-party service, and
you should inform your incident contact that the incident
message will come from an unknown number.

Select OK.

7

Review the information, and select Save.

8

Cancelling an Incident Notification

When the device detects an incident, a message and a voice
prompt inform you that a notification will be sent to your incident
contact. A 60-second countdown timer starts when the incident
is detected, and the device sends the notification automatically
when the timer expires. If you do not want to send the
notification, you can cancel it.

Before the timer expires, select Cancel.

Disabling Incident Notifications

While incident notifications are disabled, the device does not
send an SMS notification when it detects an incident.

Select Settings > Driver Assistance > Incident

1

Notification.
Clear the Incident Detection SMS check box.

inReach Remote

The inReach remote function allows you to control your inReach
satellite communication device (sold separately) using your
zūmo device. You can send messages, view weather reports,
trigger an SOS alert, and more. Go to buy.garmin.com to
purchase an inReach device.

Connecting an inReach Device

Bring the inReach device within 3 m (10 ft.) of your zūmo

1

device.
On your zūmo device, select Apps > inReach.

2

Follow the on-screen instructions on your zūmo device to

3

complete the pairing process.

After the pairing process is complete, the inReach and zūmo
devices connect automatically when they are within range.

Sending an inReach Message

Before you can send an inReach message using your zūmo
device, you must pair it with a compatible inReach device
(Connecting an inReach Device, page 4).

4 Rider Awareness Features and Alerts

You can use your device to send inReach messages to your
contacts.

Select Apps > inReach > .

1

Select New Message.

2

Select Select Contacts to add one or more contacts.

3

Enter a message.

4

Select Send.

5

SOS

During an emergency, you can contact the GEOS International
Emergency Rescue Coordination Center (IERCC) to request
help. Pressing the SOS button sends a message to the rescue
coordination center, and they notify the appropriate emergency
responders of your situation. You can communicate with the
rescue coordination center during your emergency while you
wait for help to arrive. You should only use the SOS function in a
real emergency situation.

Initiating an SOS Rescue

Before you can initiate an SOS rescue using your zūmo device,
you must pair it with a compatible inReach device (Connecting

an inReach Device, page 4).

NOTE: While in SOS mode, the inReach device cannot be
turned off.

Select Apps > inReach.

1

Select .

2

Wait for the SOS countdown.

3

The device sends a default message to the emergency
response service with details about your location.

Reply to the confirmation message from the emergency

4

response service.
Your reply lets the emergency response service know that

you are capable of interacting with them during the rescue.
For the first 10 minutes of your rescue, an updated location is

sent to the emergency response service every minute. To
conserve battery power after the first 10 minutes, an updated
location is sent every 10 minutes when moving, and every 30
minutes when stationary.

Canceling an SOS Rescue

If you no longer need assistance, you can cancel an SOS
rescue after it is sent to the emergency response service.

Select Cancel SOS > Cancel SOS.

Your device transmits the cancellation request. When you
receive a confirmation message from the emergency response
service, the device returns to normal operation.

Viewing Helmet Law Notifications

Helmet law and eye protection notifications may appear on your
zūmo device the first time your device acquires satellites and
when your device approaches a location with motorcycle safety
rules.

NOTICE

Garmin recommends that all riders wear helmets for safety.
Helmet law notifications are for reference only, are subject to
change, and are not intended to be considered legal advice.
Helmet law notifications are available in the U.S. and Canada
only.

Select the notification to view more details.
