Locking Your nuvi
Garmin Lock is a theft-deterrent system
that locks your nuvi. Each time you tum
on the nuvi, enter the PIN or drive to the
security location.
1. Touch
Tools> Settings> Security.
2. Touch the button below
Garmin
Lock.
3. Enter a 4-digit PIN, and drive to a
security location.
What is a Security Location?
Your security location should be a
location you return to often, such as your
home. If the nuvi has satellite signals
and you are at the security location, you
do not need to enter the PIN.
• NOTE: If you forget your PIN and
your security location, you must send
your niivi to Gannin to get it unlocked.
You must also send a valid product
registration or proof of purchase.
