Customizing the nüvi
Adding a Subscription
Notice
You do not need to activate the
subscription included with your
FM trafc receiver (if it came with
one). The subscription activates
automatically after your nüvi
acquires satellite signals while
receiving trafc signals from the
service provider.
You can purchase additional
subscriptions or a renewal if your
subscription expires. Go to
www.garmin.com/fmtrafc.
1. From the Main menu, touch Tools
> Settings > Trafc.
2. Touch
Subscriptions > Add.
3. Write down the FM trafc receiver
unit ID.
4. Go to
www.garmin.com/fmtrafc
to purchase a subscription and
get a 25-character code.
5. Touch
Next on the nüvi, enter the
code, and touch Done.
The trafc subscription code cannot
be reused. You must obtain a new
code each time you renew your
service. If you own multiple FM
trafc receivers, you must obtain a
new code for each receiver.
