QuestionBecause this model includes the Live Traffic feature provided through the Garmin Smartphone link, does that mean it is necessary to connect to the link through your smartphone device? What if you do not have a smartphone? How would you use the link?
Asked 7 years ago by NewGarminDriver.

QuestionWhat is the purpose of the Data cards - microSD™ card (not included)?
Asked 7 years ago by NewGarminDriver.
- Answer The device will work out of the box without adding a micro SD card. However as future map updates are released they may have so much new information that it won’t fit on the device's internal memory, at that point a micro SD card can be used to expand the memory. This model supports cards from 8 GB to 64 GB, with speed ratings up to class 10 (including unmarked cards).
