Acquiring Satellites
1. Go outdoors to an open area, away from tall buildings
and trees.
2. Flip up the GPS antenna on
the back of the nüvi, so that it is
parallel to the ground.

satellite signals can take a few
minutes.
The bars indicate satellite
strength. When the bars are green,
the nüvi has acquired satellite signals; now you can select a
destination and navigate to it.

Mounting on the Windshield
Check your state and local traffic laws before mounting. Currently, state
laws in California and Minnesota prohibit drivers from using suction
mounts on their windshields while operating motor vehicles. Other
Garmin dashboard or friction mounting options should be used. See the
Important Safety and Product Information guide for more details.
1. Plug the power cable into the bottom of the mount. Plug
the other end into a 12/24-Volt receptacle in your vehicle.
2. Clean and dry your windshield and the suction cup with a
lint-free cloth. Place the suction cup on the windshield.
3. Flip the lever back, toward the windshield.
4. Flip up the GPS antenna. Fit the bottom of your nüvi into
the cradle.
5. Tilt the nüvi back until it snaps into place.
6. If your power cable has an antenna with suction cups
attached, use the suction cups to route the antenna
vertically on the windshield.

Do not leave your GPS unit exposed in an unattended vehicle on a hot
day. To prevent damage, remove it from the vehicle; or store it out of
direct sunlight, such as in the glove box. See the specifications in the
