Wi-Fi connection

About Wi-Fi®
The easiest way to manage your maps, software, and all your device content is over a Wi-Fi
connection.
Your device can be updated using Wi-Fi without the need to connect to a computer. It remembers
previously connected Wi-Fi networks so you can keep your device up-to-date when you are in
range of that network.
Before you begin, make sure that you have access to an unrestricted Wi-Fi network, such as a
personal home network. Please be aware that updating over a public Wi-Fi network, such as in an
airport or hotel, is not recommended because the updates can be large and the network
connection may not be stable.
Tip: If you don't have access to a Wi-Fi network or your Wi-Fi network is slow or not stable, you
can update your device using an SD-card.

restaurants.

1. Select Settings in the Main Menu, then select Wi-Fi.

range.
Tip: Scroll down to go to the list of out-of-range saved networks.

password. If no password is required, you are connected right away.

It may take a few moments for your device to connect to the Wi-Fi network. If it takes too long,
please check the identity and password you used for the Wi-Fi network.

nected under the Wi-Fi network name.
