nüvi Troubleshooting
Problem/Question
Solution/Answer
My battery gauge does not 
seem accurate.
Allow the nüvi to fully discharge and then fully 
charge it (without interrupting the charge cycle).
The touch screen is not 
responding to my taps 
properly.
Calibrate the screen. On the Menu page, touch 
Settings
 > 
Display
. Touch the 
Recalibrate
 button 
and follow the on-screen instructions. 
Battery Information 
Your nüvi contains an internal (non-removable) lithium-ion battery. Contact your local 
waste disposal department for information on properly disposing of the nüvi. 
Battery Tips
•  Your nüvi’s battery should last 4 to 8 hours, depending on usage. 
•  To extend the battery life, reduce the time the backlight stays on. On the Menu 
page, select 
Settings 
Display
 > 
Backlight Timeout
 to change the setting.
•  Close the antenna when you do not need to receive GPS signals. 
•  To increase the accuracy of the battery gauge, fully discharge the battery and 
then fully charge it. You should not need to do this very often.
•  Do not leave your nüvi in direct sunlight, and avoid prolonged exposure to 
excessive heat.
