Map and Software Updates
For the best navigation experience, you should keep the maps
and software on your device up to date.
Map updates provide the newest available changes to roads and
locations in the maps used by your device. Keeping maps up to
date helps your device find recently added locations and
calculate more accurate routes. Map updates are large and may
take several hours to complete.
Software updates provide changes and improvements to the
device features and operation. Software updates are small and
take a few minutes to complete.
You can update your device using two methods.
You can connect the device to a WiFi network to update
directly on the device (recommended). This option allows you
to update your device conveniently without connecting it to a
computer.
You can connect the device to a computer and update it
using the Garmin Express application (garmin.com/express).
This option allows you to install map data onto a memory
card if the updated maps are too large to fit on the internal
storage.
Connecting to a WiFi Network
The first time you turn on the device, it prompts you to connect
to a WiFi network and register your device. You can also
connect to a WiFi network using the settings menu.
1
Select Settings > Wireless Networks.
2
If necessary, select Wi-Fi to enable WiFi technology.
3
Select Search for Networks.
The device displays a list of nearby WiFi networks.
4
Select a network.
5
If necessary, enter the password for the network, and select
Done.
The device connects to the network, and the network is added to
the list of saved networks. The device reconnects to this network
automatically when it is within range.
Updating Maps and Software Using a WiFi Network
NOTICE
Map and software updates may require the device to download
large files. Regular data limits or charges from your Internet
service provider apply. Contact your Internet service provider for
more information about data limits or charges.
You can update the maps and software by connecting your
device to a WiFi network that provides access to the Internet.
This allows you to keep your device up to date without
connecting it to a computer.
1
Connect the device to a WiFi network (Connecting to a Wi
Fi
Network, page 20).
While connected to a WiFi network, the device checks for
available updates. When an update is available, appears

To install only map updates, select Map > Install All.
To install only software updates, select Software > Install
All.
4
Read the licence agreements, and select Accept All to
accept the agreements.
NOTE: if you do not agree with the licence terms, you can
select Reject. This stops the update process. You cannot
install updates until you accept the licence agreements.
5
Using the included USB cable, connect the device to external
power, and select Continue (Charging the Device, page 20).
For the best results, a USB wall charger that provides at least
1 A power output is recommended. Many USB power
adapters for smartphones, tablets, or portable media devices
may be compatible.
6
Keep the device connected to external power and within
range of the WiFi network until the update process is
complete.
TIP: if a map update is interrupted or cancelled before it
completes, your device may be missing map data. To repair
missing map data, you must update the maps again using either
WiFi or Garmin Express.
Updating Maps and Software with Garmin Express
You can use the Garmin Express application to download and
install the latest map and software updates for your device.
