Using the Manage Maps Feature in Garmin Express for the zūmo XT

You can use the Manage Maps feature in the Garmin Express™ software to add or remove available maps from your device. This can be helpful if you accidentally removed needed map files from your device, or if you would like to change which maps are currently installed.

If you need to reinstall maps currently installed on your automotive device due to an issue with the map, or the Manage Maps option is not available, see Reinstall or Change Map on an Automotive Device instead.


Wi-Fi updates are recommended for the zūmo® XT GPS navigator. See Wireless Map and Software Update Instructions for instructions.  

  • Garmin Express™ software can be used to move mapping to a memory card.

  • The zūmo® XT Wi-Fi feature cannot be used for this process.

To Manage Maps in Garmin Express:

1. Open Garmin Express and select your zūmo® XT

  

2. Click Manage Maps

  

3. Select any map regions you want installed on your zūmo® XT

    • Check marks indicate maps currently installed on your zūmo® XT.
