Program Home Location On A Garmin Nuvi







While a Gamin Nuvi GPS device is great for directions and getting around town, you can also use it to find things in the city where you live, including restaurants, auto repair and government offices. In order to utilize this feature, you first need to program your home location.


Instructions








1. Turn the device on by sliding the switch on the top of the device to the left. Wait for system to start and agree to the warning that you will not use the GPS device while driving.


2. Select "where to" then select "address." From there, choose the state of your home address, then spell the city and enter in the house number and street.


3. Select "save" on the bottom right once you have entered in the full address. Enter "home" for the name and press done.


4. Return to the main menu and again select "where to", then choose "favorites". You should see your home location programmed into you favorites. Select it and verify it is in fact the correct address.
