Registering a Device via Wi-Fi
Wi-Fi enabled devices will offer the option to register during the initial wireless network setup.
NOTE: Some devices do not have an underscore "_" and/or other special characters in the keyboard. A different email address will be needed to register the device.
To Register your Device via Wi-Fi:
1. On the Where to?/View Map page, touch the gear icon
2. Touch Wireless Networks
3. Ensure Wi-Fi is enabled
4. Touch Search for Networks
5. Locate and touch your Wi-Fi network name
- Enter the network password if prompted and touch Done
6. Touch Yes or No to the Help Improve Garmin Products agreement
- Steps #6 - #9 screens to consent and register will not appear if the initial setup has already been done.
- You may restore the device to have the consent and registration options again. See Restore .
7. Touch Email Address
8. Enter your email address and touch Done
9. Touch Continue
The Garmin device will now be registered to your email address.
The registration over Wi-Fi will only be available when connecting to a wireless network for the first time.
If the option to register was skipped on an initial Wi-Fi setup, or if the device needs to be registered to a new email address, settings restore can be performed. Afterward, the option to add an email address for registration will appear when configuring the wireless network.
To Restore the Device Settings:
- Touch Settings
- Touch the
menu button
- Touch Restore
- Touch Yes
Another option to register a device or change the registered email address is in the Garmin Express program with your device connected to a computer. See Registering my Device to a Different Email Address for steps.
