FCC Compliance

Introduction

The StreetPilot 2610/2650 complies with Part 15 of the FCC interference limits for Class B digital

devices FOR HOME OR OFFICE USE. These limits are designed to provide more reasonable protection

against harmful interference in a residential installation, and are more stringent than “outdoor” require-

ments.

FCC Compliance Statement

Operation of this device is subject to the following conditions: (1) This device may not cause harmful

interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference received, including interference that may

cause undesired operation.

This equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in

accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there

is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause

harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment

off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one of the following measures:

• Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.

• Increase the separation between the equipment and the receiver.

• Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is con-

nected.

• Consult the dealer or and experienced radio/TV technician for help.

The StreetPilot 2610/2650 does not contain any user-serviceable parts. Repairs should only be made

by an authorized Garmin service center. Unauthorized repairs or modiﬁcations could result in permanent

damage to the equipment, and void your warranty and your authority to operated this device under Part 15

regulations.

CAUTION: Use the StreetPilot 2610/2650 at your own risk. To reduce the risk of unsafe operation,

carefully review and understand all aspects of this Owner’s Manual—and thoroughly practice operation

using the simulator mode prior to actual use. When in actual use, carefully compare indications from the

StreetPilot 2610/2650 to all available navigation sources, including the information from other NAVAIDs,

visual sightings, charts, etc. For safety, always resolve any discrepancies before continuing navigation.

Introduction

Warnings and Cautions

CAUTION: IT IS THE USER’S RESPONSIBILITY TO USE THIS PRODUCT PRUDENTLY. THIS

PRODUCT IS INTENDED TO BE USED ONLY AS A NAVIGATIONAL AID AND MUST NOT BE USED

FOR ANY PURPOSE REQUIRING PRECISE MEASUREMENT OF DIRECTION, DISTANCE, LOCATION

OR TOPOGRAPHY. THIS PRODUCT SHOULD NOT BE USED AS AN AID TO DETERMINE GROUND

PROXIMITY FOR AIRCRAFT NAVIGATION.

CAUTION: The electronic chart is an aid to navigation and is designed to facilitate the use of autho-

rized government charts, not replace them. Only ofﬁcial government charts and notices to mariners contain

all information needed for safe navigation – and, as always, the user is responsible for their prudent use.

MAP DATA INFORMATION: One of the goals of Garmin is to provide customers with the most

complete and accurate cartography that is available to us at a reasonable cost. We use a combination of

governmental and private data sources, which we identify as required in product literature and copyright

messages displayed to the consumer. Virtually all data sources contain inaccurate or incomplete data to

some degree. This is particularly true outside the United States, where complete and accurate digital data is

either not available or prohibitively expensive. Because the map data may not be perfect, it helps at times

to cross-check the unit’s map with your actual surroundings to conﬁrm that you are arriving at the exact

destination.

WARNING: The Global Positioning System (GPS) is operated by the United States government, which

is solely responsible for its accuracy and maintenance. The system is subject to changes which could affect

the accuracy and performance of all GPS equipment. Although the Garmin StreetPilot 2610/2650 is a preci-

sion electronic NAVigation AID (NAVAID), any NAVAID can be misused or misinterpreted and, therefore,

become unsafe.

Introduction

Warnings and Cautions

WARNING: For use in vehicles, it is the sole responsibility of the owner/operator of the StreetPilot

2610/2650 to secure the unit so that it will not interfere with the vehicle’s operating controls, obstruct

the driver’s view of driving conditions, or cause damage or personal injury in the event of an accident. Do

not mount the StreetPilot 2610/2650 over air bag panels or in the ﬁeld of air bag deployment. Air bags

expand with a rapid force that can propel objects in their path toward the driver or passengers causing

possible injury. Refer to air bag safety precautions contained in the vehicle’s owner manual. Do not mount

the StreetPilot 2610/2650 in a place where the driver or passengers are likely to impact it in an accident

or collision. The mounting hardware provided by Garmin is not warranted against collision damage or the

consequences thereof.

Your StreetPilot is equipped with a ‘Safe Mode’ feature to

improve driver safety. By default, this feature is enabled,

but can be turned off to allow a passenger to operate

the unit. When your vehicle is moving, Safe Mode

disables certain StreetPilot functions which require

signiﬁcant operator attention and may become a distrac-

tion to use while driving. See page 36 for details.

WARNING: For use in vehicles, it the sole responsibility of the driver of the vehicle to operate the

vehicle in a safe manner, maintain full surveillance of all driving conditions at all times, and not become

distracted by the StreetPilot 2610/2650 to the exclusion of safe driving practices. It is unsafe to operate

the controls of the StreetPilot 2610/2650 while you are driving. Failure by the driver of a vehicle equipped

with a StreetPilot 2610/2650 to pay full attention to operation of the vehicle and road conditions while the

vehicle is in motion could result in an accident or collision with property damage and personal injury.

For instructions on vehicle installation, see

Appendix A (pages 44).

WARNING: This product, its packaging, and its components contain chemicals known to the State of

California to cause cancer, birth defects, or reproductive harm. This Notice is being provided in accordance

with California’s Proposition 65. If you have any questions or would like additional information, please

GPS Cleaning

Introduction

The StreetPilot 2610/2650 case and remote are constructed of high quality materials and do not require

user maintenance other than cleaning. Clean the unit using a cloth dampened with a mild detergent solu-

tion and then wipe dry. Avoid chemical cleaners and solvents that may damage plastic components.

Maintenance

Touchscreen Cleaning

The StreetPilot 2610/2650 touchscreen is intended primarily for ﬁnger operation. Although a PDA

stylus may also be used to operate touchscreen, never attempt this while operating a vehicle. Never use a

hard or sharp object to operate the touchscreen or damage may result. The touchscreen should be cleaned

using a soft, clean, lint-free cloth. Water, isopropyl alcohol, or eyeglass cleaner may be used if needed. If

these are used, apply liquid to cloth and then gently wipe touchscreen with moistened cloth.

Storage

Do not store the StreetPilot 2610/2650 where prolonged exposure to temperature extremes may occur

(such as in the trunk of a car) as permanent damage may result. User information, such as waypoints,

routes, etc. are retained in the unit’s memory without the need for external power. It is always a good

practice to back up important user data by manually recording it or downloading it to a PC (transferring it

to MapSource).

Storing alkaline batteries in the remote control for extended periods is not recommended. In order to

reduce the chance for battery leakage in the battery compartment, remove the batteries when storing the

unit for more than six months.

FIND/RECENT Key — FIND displays search options for Cities, Exits, Waypoints, and Recently found

places. If MapSource City Navigator or MetroGuide map data is loaded in an installed CompactFlash®

card, it also searches for various Points of Interest, Addresses, and Intersections. RECENT allows you to

view a sortable list of recent ﬁnds.

SPEAK/VOLUME Key — SPEAK triggers the voice to repeat the next turn or current destination when

navigating and current GPS status when not navigating. VOLUME displays an adjustment slide on the

screen to change the speaker volume. To hear the volume count (i.e., 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10) touch up

prompt and tab text (if a tab is set to ‘NextTurn’) appears.

For maximum map display, you can select ‘Hide

Tabs’. This section of the manual discusses how to

select between the displays. You may also TOUCH

the tabs to hide/show them.

The map display shows your present position and direction of movement as a triangular ‘Position Icon’

in the center of the map. The map display also shows the map scale, north reference, and geographic details

such as lakes, rivers, highways, and towns. When you are driving on roads that are not present in the

maps, you may see a circle drawn around the position pointer. This is the ‘accuracy circle’. The StreetPilot

2610/2650 uses both map resolution and GPS accuracy in deﬁning your location to a point within this

“accuracy circle”. The smaller the circle, the more accurate your location. More detailed map features as

well as information about those features can be displayed using a CF data card containing map data trans-

ferred from a Garmin MapSource CD-ROM. When you zoom into smaller map scales, “MapSource” appears

directly below the map scale indicating that MapSource data is being used to draw a more detailed map.

The map may be also be toggled between a North Up or Track Up orientation. (see page 12)

Zooming, Panning and Pointing

Reference

There are three main actions you can perform on the Map page: zooming, panning, and pointing. The

map display has 24 map scales (from 120 feet to 800 miles) that are selected by pressing the remote IN

and OUT zoom keys or TOUCH the current map scale in the lower left corner of the map display. You can

change the map scale to show more map area with less detail, or less map area with more detail.

Map Page

To change the map scale:

1. TOUCH the map scale on the lower left corner. A zoom/pan toolbar appears on the left side of the dis-

play and the data tabs on the right are hidden. TOUCH the ‘+’ magnifying glass icon to zoom IN to see

a smaller area with more detail. You may also use the remote IN zoom key (The toolbar does not appear

when using the remote.) Press and hold this remote key to zoom the map scale rapidly.

2. TOUCH the ‘-’ icon to zoom OUT to see a larger area with less detail. You may also us the remote OUT

zoom key. Press and hold this remote key to zoom the map scale rapidly.

Select ‘+’ to zoom in and ‘-’ to zoom out.

3. To return back to the normal Map page, TOUCH the ‘Back’ (Left) arrow in the upper left or press QUIT

on the remote.

You may also deﬁne a particular area to enlarge on the map by drawing a “box” on the touch screen,

then lifting your ﬁnger from the screen. The zoom/pan toolbar shows both the View Area and Pan icons in

the lower left. The larger of the two icons is the one that is active, with the inactive option appearing as a

smaller icon in the lower right on the zoon/pan toolbar. The View Area option can only be used with the

touch screen.

To zoom in on particular map area:

1. TOUCH the map to display the zoom/pan toolbar.

2. If the Pan (hand) icon is the larger of the two, TOUCH the icon. The icons change places and the View

Area icon is the larger.

Drag to create a box around the zoom area.

3. TOUCH and hold a point adjacent to the area you want to enlarge and then drag to create a box around

the area. Lift your ﬁnger to complete, allowing the map to redraw. The unit zooms in on the drawn area

and adjust the zoom scale as needed. The unit zooms in greater scale increments if a smaller box is

drawn. Note that when the View Area Selector is active, the Pan Map feature is not usable.

When zoomed in to smaller map areas, ‘overzoom’ appears directly below the map scale. This indicates

the current scale exceeds the optimum resolution of available map detail. Extra caution should be used in

‘overzoom’ since some detail, such as roads, are drawn using widely spaced points and the actual layout of

these details may differ from the map presentation.

Reference

Map Page

Panning allows you to move the map in order to view areas beyond the current map area. This provides

a ‘look ahead’ capability, which is particularly useful with smaller map areas. While in panning mode, the

data tabs on the right are hidden.

To pan the Map page:

1. Use the remote THUMB STICK or TOUCH, hold, and drag your ﬁnger to move the map in any direction,

including diagonally.

2. Once you are ﬁnished panning, you can quickly remove the panning arrow and re-center the map on

your present position by pressing the remote QUIT key or TOUCH the back arrow in the upper left.

As you begin to pan the map with the remote, a pointer appears. This map pointer serves as a target

marker for the map. If you change the scale, the map is redrawn with the pointer at the center. When

the pointer is placed on a map object, the name of that object is highlighted and an ‘I’ (Information) icon

appears in the upper right corner. If the pointer is on a blank area of the map, a Create Waypoint ‘Flag’

appears. This feature applies to everything displayed on the map except route lines and track log data.

When a map item or waypoint name is highlighted, you can review information, show it on the map, or

execute a ‘Go To’ directly from the Map page. Waypoints have an additional ‘Delete’ option and all other

map items have a ‘Flag’ icon to create a waypoint at that item’s location.

When the ‘New Waypoint’ page appears, the

waypoint is stored in memory once you select ‘OK’.

The ‘Go To’ function can be used anywhere on the map. If nothing currently exists at the map pointer

position, a new waypoint is created at the pointer’s location before the ‘Go To’ is started. You can also create

a waypoint on the Map page without selecting it as a ‘Go To’ destination.

Routing to a Map Feature or Location

1. Use the remote THUMB STICK or TOUCH to point to the desired map item or location on the map.

2. Select the ‘Information’ or ‘Flag’ icon in the upper right.

Reference

• Off Road: this setting causes your route to be a direct line from you to your destination. This may be

useful outside of detailed map coverage areas.

System Setup

Ask Me My Preference Determines whether you are prompted to change your current Route Preference

–

(‘Faster Time’, ‘Shorter Distance’, or ‘Off Road’) before route calculations. This setting can also be changed

from Yes to No from the Route Preference page. The following options are available:

• Yes: this setting results in the Route Preference page being displayed before route calculations. This

setting is recommended if you frequently have a different preference for your routes.

• No: this setting skips the Route Preference page before route calculations. The StreetPilot 2610/2650

uses your current Route Preference for all route calculations. This setting is recommended if you usu-

ally have the same preference for your routes.

The ‘Off Road’ option is useful if you stop some-

where on your trip where there are no roads (scenic

area, etc.) and you still want to navigate (via a

straight line) using the StreetPilot 2610/2650.

Calculation Method Allows you to control how thoroughly the StreetPilot 2610/2650 searches for the

–

perfect route. There is a trade-off here between the length of time it takes to ﬁnd a route and the quality

of that route (i.e., given the calculation criterion selected under ‘Route Preference’ settings). The following

options are available:

• Quickest Calculation: this gives you the fastest results, but the least optimal route.

• Quick Calculation: takes a bit more time to calculate than the ‘Quickest Calculation’ method, but

produces a better quality route.

• Better Route: even better quality route, but longer calculation time than the ‘Quick Calculation’

method.

• Best Route: this gives the most optimal route, but takes the longest time to calculate.

The ‘Ask Me My Preference’ setting can also be

changed from the Routing File tab.

Info Pages

Reference

Pressing MENU twice displays the Info menu items (GPS Info, Map Info, and System Info). From the

Main Menu window, you may select the following:

Info Pages/GPS Info Page

GPS Info page - Visual reference of GPS receiver functions

Map Info page - Displays version and map name(s) for any MapSource CD-ROM data stored on an

installed CF data card.

System Info page - Displays the unit software version and unit ID number.

GPS Information Page

The GPS Information page provides a visual reference of GPS receiver functions, including current

satellite coverage, receiver status, and position accuracy. As the StreetPilot 2610/2650 locks onto satellites,

a signal strength bar appears for each satellite in view, with the appropriate satellite number (from 01-32)

underneath each bar. The progress of satellite acquisition is shown in three stages:

A hollow bar indicates the receiver has found the

satellite and is collecting data.

• No signal strength bar: the receiver is looking for the satellite(s) indicated. The corresponding

number(s) on the sky view is not highlighted.

• Hollow signal strength bar: the receiver has found the satellite and is collecting data.

• Solid green signal strength bar: the receiver has collected the necessary data and the satellite(s) is

ready for use. The corresponding number(s) on the sky view is highlighted.

Each satellite has a 30-second data transmission that must be collected (hollow signal strength bar, as

described above) before that satellite may be used for navigation (solid green signal strength bar). Once a

ﬁx has been calculated, the StreetPilot 2610/2650 then updates your position, ground track, and ground

speed by selecting and using the best satellites in view.

Solid green bars indicate the receiver has collected

the necessary information and the satellite is ready

for use.

Sky View and Signal Strength Bars

Reference

The sky view and signal strength bars give you an indication of which satellites are currently vis-

ible, which satellites are being used to calculate a position ﬁx, and the signal quality. The sky view shows

a “bird’s eye” view of each satellite position relative to the unit’s last known position. The outer circle

represents the horizon in all directions (with cardinal heading references). The inner circle represents an

elevation of 45° above the horizon. Any satellite depicted near the center is directly overhead. You can use

the sky view to help determine whether any satellites are being blocked and whether you have a current

position ﬁx (indicated by ‘2D Navigation’ or ‘3D Navigation’ in the status ﬁeld). You can also set the sky

view to a ‘Track Up’ instead of ‘North Up’ conﬁguration (under the ‘Orientation’ ﬁeld of the ‘Map’ tab page

under ‘Map Setup’), causing the top of the sky view to align to your current track heading. (See page 42)

GPS Info Page

Receiver Status

As soon as the StreetPilot 2610/2650 has collected the necessary data to calculate a ﬁx, the status ﬁeld

indicates a 2D or 3D status (for ‘2D’, you may need to enter your elevation). Receiver status is indicated at

the top left corner of the page. The status is shown as one of the following conditions:

‘Acquiring Sats’ means the receiver is collecting

data from available satellites but has not collected

enough data to calculate a position ﬁx.

Searching Sky – The StreetPilot 2610/2650 is looking for any available satellites in view.

AutoLocate – The StreetPilot 2610/2650 is initializing and collecting new almanac data. This process can

take up to ﬁve minutes, depending on the satellites currently in view.

Acquiring Sats – The receiver is collecting data from available satellites, but has not collected enough data

to calculate a position ﬁx.

2D Navigation – At least three satellites with good geometry have been locked onto and a two-dimen-

sional position ﬁx (latitude and longitude) is being calculated.

3D Navigation – At least four satellites with good geometry have been locked onto and your position is

now being calculated in latitude, longitude and elevation.

‘GPS is Off’ tells you the unit is being used indoors

and cannot be used for navigation.

Poor GPS Coverage – The receiver isn’t tracking enough satellites for a 2D or 3D ﬁx due to bad satellite

geometry or due to a shaded antenna (driving between buildings, etc.)

Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.

Not Usable – The receiver is unusable, possibly due to incorrect initialization or abnormal satellite condi-

tions. Turn the unit off and back on to reset and re-initialize the receiver if necessary.

Reference

GPS is Off – The unit is being used indoors and cannot be used for navigation. When the unit is being

used indoors, battery life is saved since the GPS receiver is turned off.

GPS Info Page

Dead Reckoning (2650 only) – The unit isn’t tracking enough satellites for a 2D or 3D ﬁx due to bad sat-

ellite geometry or due to a shaded antenna (driving between buildings, etc.) and is using Dead Reckoning.

‘Poor Satellite Reception’ Menu

If no satellites are received for several minutes (or an insufﬁcient number of satellites are received to

determine a position ﬁx), a message appears, prompting you to either turn off the GPS for using the unit

indoors for practice, update your approximate location (quicker) or have the unit automatically search for

the satellites (takes longer). Updating your approximate location ensures that the StreetPilot 2610/2650 is

searching for the correct satellites and is useful if you have traveled over 500 miles with the unit turned off.

If the unit has been stored for a few months and the displayed date is incorrect, the StreetPilot 2610/2650

does not know the current positions of the GPS satellites.

The ‘Poor Satellite Reception’ menu gives you

several options when an insufﬁcient number of

satellites is received to determine a position ﬁx.

The ‘Poor Satellite Reception’ prompt may appear when you ﬁrst use your StreetPilot 2610/2650. The

prompt may also appear during normal use if the antenna is shaded or when the unit is used indoors.

Accuracy

The GPS Information page indicates the accuracy of the position ﬁx. See Appendix I (pages 56-57) for

the StreetPilot 2610/2650 performance speciﬁcations which include accuracy.

The sun and moon icons on the satellite skyview are for

reference (notice that the icons are grayed if the sun/

moon is below the horizon). You can see the sunrise

and sunset times for your current location and date on

the Time Setup page under System Setup.

TOUCH the sky view to toggle between Track Up and North Up.

New Location Forces the StreetPilot 2610/2650 to search for any available satellite to determine its

–

position. This option is useful if you’ve relocated a long distance (greater than 500 miles) away from the last

location where the StreetPilot 2610/2650 was used. In such instances, without initialization, the StreetPilot

2610/2650 may be looking for the wrong group of satellites.

To select a new location:

1. Select ‘New Location’. A window appears with two options (‘Automatic’ and ‘Use Map’).

2. Select either ‘Automatic’ or ‘Use Map’.

Selecting ‘North Up’ displays the sky view with

North at the top.

3. Selecting ‘Automatic’ puts the unit in Autolocate mode and begins searching the sky for satellites. ‘For

‘Use Map’, a New Location map page appears. Pan and zoom the map pointer on the map to ﬁnd your

approximate location then press IN on the THUMB STICK or TOUCH the checkmark in the upper right.

New Elevation Allows you to designate your approximate elevation when the StreetPilot 2610/2650 is

–

acquiring satellites or navigating within a two-dimensional position. By default, 2D navigation attempts

to use the last known elevation. If the elevation shown is off by several hundred feet (or more), manually

entering your approximate elevation enables the receiver to more accurately determine a position ﬁx. Once

the unit has a 3D position, it is not possible to enter an elevation.

To enter an elevation:

1. Select ‘New Elevation’.

2. Enter your approximate elevation using the steps on page 4 and select ‘OK”.

Vehicle Installation

Appendix A

The StreetPilot 2610/2650 is portable, allowing you to easily carry the unit from vehicle to vehicle or

take it with you once you reach your destination. A Dash Mount consisting of a mounting base, required

hardware, and adhesive pads is included with the StreetPilot 2610/2650. You may choose to use the non-

skid friction mount, which is designed for convenient temporary mounting for your StreetPilot 2610/2650.

Installation should be performed with consideration for the following safety warnings:

Vehicle Installation

WARNING: For use in vehicles, it is the sole responsi-

bility of the owner/operator to place and secure the GPS

unit so that is does not interfere with the vehicle operat-

ing controls and safety devices, obstruct the driver’s view

of driving conditions, or cause damage or personal injury

in the event of an accident. Do not place the mounting

bracket over airbag panels or in the ﬁeld of airbag

deployment. Airbags expand with a rapid ﬁre force

that can propel objects in their path towards the vehicle

driver or passengers causing possible injury. Refer to

airbag safety precautions contained in the vehicle owner’s

manual. Do not place the mounting bracket where the

driver or passengers are likely to impact it in an accident

or collision. The mounting hardware provided by

Garmin is not warranted against collision damage or the

consequences thereof.

Do not place unse-

cured on the vehicle

dash

Do not mount where

driver’s ﬁeld of vision is

blocked

Do not mount in front of an

airbag ﬁeld of deployment

Do not mount over

airbag panels

Select a suitable location for installation that allows routing of an external power cord and/or antenna

cable (if needed) to the GPS unit. If you are NOT using a remote antenna, be certain to select a location

where the GPS unit’s antenna has a relatively unobstructed view of the sky.

The StreepPilot 2650, with DR (Dead Reckoning), continues to work as a GPS navigation unit (the

same as the StreetPilot 2610) without the DR cable attached. It is possible to use the StreetPilot 2650 as a

portable, non-DR unit in multiple vehicles, without the DR cable installed in those vehicles.

NOTE: An optional external remote antenna (Garmin

GA 27C) may be needed when operating the unit in a

vehicle with a coated windshield or an in-screen heating

system which can block the GPS signals.

DR Cable Wiring - For Dealer Installation

Appendix A

The StreetPilot 2650 must be installed by a licensed dealer due to the DR (Dead Reckoning) cable con-

nections. The DR connection consists of a 2-wire harness that connects to the VSS (Vehicle Speed Sensor)

and Reverse Light Switch on the bare wire end and the External Speaker System with 12/24v DC Adapter

on the 2-prong molded connector end. See pages 44-47 for additional installtion instructions for the

StreetPilot 2650.

DR Cable Wiring (2650 Only)

The Orange DR 1 cable wire attaches to the VSS. The unit software option ‘Odometer Wave Type’ needs to

be set to either ‘Square Wave’ or ’Sine Wave’ (see page 38). This may be determined either by contacting the

vehicle manufacturer or by using an oscilloscope. ‘Square Wave’ is the most common type. Do not con-

nect the DR Cable into the vehicle speed sensor signal from the ABS control.

The Green DR 2 cable wire attaches to the Reverse Light Switch. The unit software options ‘Reverse Light

Polarity’ needs to be set to either ‘High’ or ’Low’ (see page 38). Contact the vehicle manufacturer for polar-

ity or check with a voltmeter. Set to ‘High’ (most common) if a positive, high voltage is detected. Set to

‘Low’ if no or a low voltage is detected.

WARNING: the terms of the Garmin Warranty require that the DR (Dead Reckoning) Cable

with bare wire leads be installed by experienced installers at a qualiﬁed installation facility

(i.e., auto electrical accessory installation center). The user should not attempt installation

without proper knowledge of automotive electrical systems and skill in the use of special

tools or hardware required for installation.

Time Zones and UTC Time Offset

Appendix B

The StreetPilot 2610/2650 has many time zones built into memory. To display the correct local time,

simply choose the corresponding time zone. Internally, the StreetPilot 2610/2650 does the necessary

“offset” calculations to convert from UTC (Coordinated Universal Time) to selected local time zone.

Time Offsets

To select a time zone:

1. Press unit or remote MENU to select the Main Menu, then select ‘Options’.

2. Select the ‘Time’ ﬁle tab, then select the ‘Time Zone’ ﬁeld to display a list of available time zones.

3. Select the desired time zone and press ENTER.

If the desired time zone is not pre-programmed into the StreetPilot 2610/2650, you’ll need to enter the

time offset manually. To do this, select ‘Other’ as the time zone. Once selected, a ‘UTC Offset’ ﬁeld appears

directly adjacent to ‘Other’, allowing you to manually enter the difference between UTC and the local time

zone.

Many time zones are pre-programmed into your

StreetPilot 2610/2650 making display of local time

simple.

To manually enter a time zone offset:

1. Follow the steps above and select ‘Other’ in the ‘Time Zone’ ﬁeld.

2. Select the ‘UTC Offset’ ﬁeld, then use the enter the desired offset amount.

3. Select ‘OK’ when ﬁnished.

If you are not certain what the offset is between UTC and the local time zone, experiment. Simply enter

incremental offset values until the correct local time appears. To aid this endeavor, keep in mind that as

you move West of the Prime Meridian (0° longitude) the offset is negative (-), and as you move East of the

Prime Meridian the offset is positive (+). In other words, it is earlier in the day when you move West and

later in the day when you move East.

If the desired time zone is not pre-programmed, select

‘Other’ and enter the offset from UTC to the local time.

Using Diacritical Marks

Appendix C

The European version of the StreetPilot 2610/2650 supports diacritical marks commonly used in

many European languages. Diacritical marks are added to letters to indicate a special phonetic value that

distinguishes it from an otherwise identical letter. The following letter/diacritic combinations, and special

characters, are supported in your StreetPilot 2610/2650:

Using Diacritical Marks

Ligatures are not displayed, but are instead converted to separate characters. For example, “Æ” or “æ”

appears on the StreetPilot 2610/2650 as “AE”. Similarly, “Œ” or “œ” appears on the StreetPilot 2610/2650

as “OE”. The “ß” character is displayed as “SS” on the StreetPilot 2610/2650.

When ﬁnding cities, enter each character using the

base letter (or whatever corresponding letter with

diacritical marks appears), then proceed to the next

character.

Letters with diacritical marks are sorted together with those without diacritics. For example, the “Ç”

is sorted in the StreetPilot 2610/2650’s alphabet as a “C”, and the “Ð” is sorted as a “D”. This means that

sorted lists may contain a mix of diacritic marks for a given letter. Also note that the “Þ” character appears

at the end of the alphabet on the StreetPilot 2610/2650.

When searching for a city or point of interest (POI) that includes these special characters in its name,

your search proceeds as if the base letter and the same letter with diacritical marks are identical. In other

words, when searching for a city/POI that includes E, È, É, Ê or Ë in the name, simply enter “E” or which-

ever diacritic version appears and proceed to the next character in the name. As you continue to enter

additional characters, the appropriate character appears when the correct city/POI name is selected. You

can observe this by using the FIND key to select the following cities:

As you continue entering each character, previously

entered characters may change to appear with or

without diacritical marks. Once the desired name is

displayed select ‘OK’, then select the desired name to

display an information page.

To FIND Västerås, Sweden:

1. Press the unit or remote FIND key then select ‘Cities’.

Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.

2. Using the instructions on page 4 select ‘V’ as the ﬁrst character. The next ﬁeld is automatically high-

lighted

Appendix C

3. Select the ‘A’ as the second character.

4. Select the ‘S’ as the third character. As you enter letters, notice how the ‘A’ character in the preceding

step changes from ‘A’ to an ‘A’ with diacritical marks.

Using Diacritical Marks

5. Continue entering the next three characters ‘T’, ‘E’ and ‘R’ in the same manner.

6. Select ‘Å’ as the seventh character. Notice that the diacritic letter appears ﬁrst, not ‘A’, because

‘VÄSTERÅS’ is the only matching entry remaining in the city database.

7. Try this same exercise with København, Denmark; Logroño, Spain; or Genève, Switzerland.

For other special characters, try searching for the following cities: Bragança, Portugal (appears as

shown here); or Meißen, Germany (appears as “MEISSEN” in your StreetPilot 2610/2650).

If you wish to save a city/POI as a waypoint, the StreetPilot 2610/2650 assigns a waypoint name to

this location. Keep in mind that, although diacritical marks appear when using the FIND key, they are

not supported in most other StreetPilot 2610/2650 functions. Therefore, Västerås, Sweden appears as

“VASTERAS” when saved as a waypoint.

Other special characters appear on your

StreetPilot 2610/2650.

To save a city or point of interest as a waypoint:

1. Follow steps 1 through 6 above to select the desired city or point of interest (POI).

2. With the desired city or POI displayed, select the desired city or POI to display a waypoint informa-

tion screen.

3. Select the on-screen Save as Waypoint ‘Flag’icon.

To save a city or point of interest as a waypoint,

select the on-screen Save as Waypoint ‘Flag’ button.

CompactFlash® data cards are widely available over the counter, and you may purchase additional cards at many different

retailers. Because Garmin does not manufacture these cards, it is possible that CompactFlash cards by certain manufacturers

may generate radio frequency signals that interfere with the operation of your StreetPilot. These circumstances are beyond

Garmin’s control. If this occurs, please use a CF card from a different manufacturer.

** Warm = all data known; Cold = position, time and almanac known; AutoLocate = almanac known, position and time
