Use Garmin Online to download location-relevant information
such as hotel and fuel prices (U.S. only), live weather data, and
trafc data. You can also download safety camera information
(Europe only). Not all services are available in all areas.
Your phone must have an Internet connection to access
Garmin Online. Most Garmin Online data is free, but your
phone’s regular Internet and data transfer charges apply. See
your phone service provider for applicable charges.
Your Garmin Online account is activated automatically on most phones. If you need
to activate your account manually, see page 25.
By default, each time you start navigating a route, Garmin Mobile XT accesses
Garmin Online to check for trafc on your route. If there is trafc, Garmin Mobile XT
avoids the trafc when generating the route. To change this setting, select (Menu >)
Settings > Routing > Avoidance Setup > Trafc.
Also, by default, Garmin Mobile XT prompts you when attempting to connect
to Garmin Online. You can change this setting by selecting (Menu >) Settings >
Garmin Online. See page 42 for more information.
You may occasionally receive messages from the Garmin Online server, which are
indicated by the server message icon at the top of the main Garmin Mobile XT
page. Select the icon to view the message.
