Safety Cameras

Safety camera information is available in

some locations. (Check

www.garmin

.com/accessories/safetycamera

for

availability.) For these locations, your

zūmo includes the locations of hundreds

of safety cameras. Your zūmo alerts

you when you are approaching a safety

camera and can warn you if you are

driving too fast. The data is updated at

least weekly, so you always have access

to the most up-to-date information.
To get updated safety camera

information:

1. Go to

http://my.garmin.com

.

2. Sign up for a subscription.

You can purchase a new region at

any time, and you can extend existing

subscriptions at any time. Each region

that you purchase has its own expiration

date.

Custom POIs (Points of

Interest)

Load custom points of interest (POIs)

onto your zūmo. POI databases are

available from various companies on the

Internet. Some custom databases contain

alert information for points, such as

school zones. A warning appears if you

are traveling too fast near these custom

POIs.
Use the Garmin POI Loader to load

POIs on your Garmin drive or SD card.
