Safety Cameras
WARNING
Garmin and JVC KENWOOD are not responsible for
the accuracy of, or the consequences of using, a
safety camera database.
Safety camera information is available in some
locations. Go to http://my.garmin.com for
availability. For these locations, the navigation
system includes the locations of hundreds of
safety cameras. Your navigation system alerts you
when you are approaching a safety camera and
can warn you if you are driving too fast. The data
is updated at least weekly, so you always have
access to the most up-to-date information.
You can purchase a new region or extend an
existing subscription at any time. Each region that
you purchase has an expiration date.
Custom POIs (Points of Interest)
You can manually load custom points of interest
(POI) databases, available from various companies
on the Internet. Some custom POI databases
contain alert information for points such as safety
cameras and school zones. The navigation system
can notify you when you approach one of these
points. You are responsible for ensuring that your
use of safety camera information is lawful in your
area.
