Safety Cameras

NOTICE

Garmin is not responsible for the accuracy of or the 

consequences of using a custom point of interest or a safety 

camera database.

Safety camera information is available in some locations. Check 

www.garmin.com/safetycameras

 for availability. For these 

locations, you can purchase a subscription for safety camera 

information. The subscription includes the locations of hundreds 

of safety cameras. Your device alerts you when you are 

approaching a safety camera and can warn you if you are 

driving too fast. The data is updated at least weekly, so you can 

update your device regularly to receive the most up-to-date 

information.
You can purchase a new region or extend an existing 

subscription at any time. Each region that you purchase has an 

expiration date.

Traffic

NOTICE

Garmin is not responsible for the accuracy or timeliness of the 

traffic information.

Traffic information may not be available in all areas or countries. 

For information about traffic receivers and coverage areas, go 

to 

www.garmin.com/traffic

.

A traffic receiver is included in some packages, built into either 

the vehicle power cable or the device, and is an optional 

accessory for all models.
• Traffic alerts appear on the map when there are traffic 

incidents along your route or in your area.

• You can receive traffic information through a traffic receiver 

or as a subscription service through Smartphone Link 

(

page 10

).

• The device must be connected to Smartphone Link with an 

active traffic subscription to receive traffic information 

through Smartphone Link.

• The device must be connected to vehicle power to receive 

traffic information through a traffic receiver.

• The powered traffic receiver and the device may need to be 

in data range of a station transmitting traffic data to receive 

traffic information.

• You do not need to activate the subscription included with 

your device or traffic receiver.

• If your device includes an external traffic antenna, you 

should always leave the external antenna plugged in for the 

best traffic reception.

Receiving Traffic Data Using a Traffic 

Receiver

NOTICE

Heated (metallized) windshields could degrade the performance 

of the traffic receiver.

Before you can receive traffic data using a traffic receiver, you 

must have a traffic-compatible power cable. If your device 

model includes lifetime traffic, you should use the vehicle power 

cable packaged with your device. If your device model does not 

include traffic, you must purchase a Garmin traffic receiver 

accessory. Go to 

www.garmin.com/traffic

 for more information.

Your device can receive traffic signals from a station 

broadcasting traffic data.

In some areas, traffic information may be received from 

FM radio stations using HD Radio™ technology.

1

Connect the traffic-compatible power cable to an external 

power source.

2

Connect the traffic-compatible power cable to the device.

When you are within a traffic coverage area, your device
