The Garmin Nuvi guides you through city streets and down rural roads with accurate directions, traffic updates and a list of points of interest. All Nuvis have a model number that enables you to identify your product. You'll need to know this model number if you want to look up documentation for your device, download updates or contact Garmin for support.
If you know your model number, you can also quickly get service for your device in the event of a product recall. If your Nuvi is attached to a vehicle cradle, you need to remove it to find the model number. Tips. Garmin has recalled several Nuvi models because of a battery that may overheat and cause a fire hazard. These models include the Nuvi 200W, 250W, 260W and 7xx, where 'xx' is a two-digit number. Garmin also provides the model number on your product's packaging and owner's manual. You may also find the number inside the battery compartment.
You can find more information about your Nuvi in the System menu. To access it, go to 'Tools,' select 'Settings,' select 'System' and choose 'About.' This menu displays your Nuvi's model number, unit ID and software version.
You will need to know this information if you update the device's maps or software.
