Questionprograming routeI just traded the other gps I had the 42lm. I hope this one u can program your own route the way u wanna go
Asked 10 years ago by Anonymous.
- Answer Hi, Yes, the nuvi 2597LMT has many more options for doing what you want. If you have a specific route that you would like to take, you can insert what are called "Shaping Points" using the Trip Planner app. For step-by-step instructions, you can refer to the article below: "How do I create a route using shaping points on my automotive device?" http://support.garmin.com/support/searchSupport/simpleCase.htm?caseId={6a9bd080-c18e-11e3-e635-000000000000}&kbName=garmin -NM

QuestionHear GPS Prompts through RadioCan I pair the GPS to Bluetooth in my vehicle to hear the GPS prompts through the radio?
Asked 10 years ago by TerriG.
- Answer I am glad to be able to answer your question. Garmin devices are not compatible with Bluetooth systems in vehicles. Bluetooth-enabled Garmin devices will only pair with compatible mobile phones, although a few models may also pair with a Bluetooth headset. You can view compatible phones by visiting the following link: http://support.garmin.com/support/searchSupport/case.faces?caseId=%7bbbfc9660-8f77-11e3-d5f4-000000000000%7d ~QKO

QuestionWorld Wide CompatibilityI am from South Africa, but looking to purchase a Garmin in USA. 1.) Will the Garmin Nuvi 2597lmt only be preloaded with USA maps? 2.) Is the whole of USA included or only some States? 3.) Is there a cost to load South African maps? 4.) How do you load South Africa maps?
Asked 11 years ago by Anonymous.
- Answer The device comes preloaded with North America only, in full. You can purchase maps for South Africa on a card, or download them to a blank microSD card of your own from: https://buy.garmin.com/en-US/US/maps/on-the-road-maps/city-navigator-nt/city-navigator-southern-africa-nt/prod15535.html

QuestionDoes it have "active Lane guidance"?
Asked 9 years ago by Anonymous.
- Answer Yes, the nüvi 2597 has Active Lance Guidance; it takes Lane Assist and Junction View to the next level. When on a route that contains an area compatible with Active Lane Guidance, the device will switch to split-screen view. On the left will appear the standard map, indicating your route as usual. The right half of the screen will display a moving lane animation with a purple line that will indicate the way the driver should navigate. Active Lane Guidance helps you stay on top of your route so you can ensure you're in the correct lane with plenty of time to spare, avoiding potentially dangerous last-minute maneuvers. ~JH

Asked 9 years ago by vintagewink.
- Answer The 65LMT has a 6" screen vs. the 2597LMT's 5" screen. The 65LMT does not appear to be Bluetooth enabled (no hands free calling, bluetooth backup camera, etc.). The 65LMT does not appear to have 3D map View. The 2597LMT is generally a step up in features.
