CompactFlash® cards are widely available over the
counter, and you may purchase additional cards
at many different retailers. Because Garmin does
not manufacture these cards, it is possible that
CompactFlash cards by certain manufacturers may
generate radio frequency signals that interfere with the
operation of your StreetPilot. These circumstances are
beyond Garmin's control. If this occurs, please use a CF
card from a different manufacturer.

Installing and Removing the CompactFlash® (CF) Data Card
The StreetPilot 2610/2650 supports Type I and II CompactFlash® (CF) data cards. The top of the card
should always face towards the FRONT of the unit when inserting. Type I cards have a slight ridge on the
bottom of the card that aids with removal. When removing Type II cards, avoid pinching the card in the
middle, rather grab the card by the inserted top and bottom edges.
To install a CF data card:
1. Slide UP on the top portion of the CF card door, then open the door away from the unit.
2. Insert the CompactFlash card into the slot with the top facing toward the front of the StreetPilot 2610/
2650. Gently push the card in until the eject button extends out to about the end of the CF card. Do not
apply excessive force as this may damage the CF card and/or result in internal damage to
the unit! When properly inserted, the CF card protrudes slightly from the slot (not fl ush).
3. Close the card door by pushing the top of the card door towards the unit until it clicks and locks. Always
close the door completely to prevent water entry.
4. To remove the card, repeat step one, then push the eject button until it is fl ush with the casing. Gently
slide the CF card out of the unit.
