|
|
Hi,
I updated my Nuvi using the webupdater software and all I get now is System software missing, Garmin promised to email me the reset procedure but have failed to do so!!!!!! (It takes 30+ minutes to get through to talk to somebody)
Has anyone here got any info?
Cheers

On the 300 the procedure is:
Whilst turning the nuvi on, keep your finger touching the top right of the screen, a pop up will appear, touch yes and all original settings will be restored. You should note that all user data will also be erased.
Hope it helps |
