Unlock Your Garmin GPS
Garmin Lock is an anti-theft feature that you can enable on your Garmin GPS unit to prevent unauthorized individuals from using the device. To enable this feature, you set up a four-digit personal identification number and a security location, such as your home or office or any other location that you frequent. Once your Garmin GPS unit is locked, you have only three options to unlock it to be able to use it.
Instructions
1. Enter your four-digit personal identification number that you used to lock your Garmin GPS. When your Garmin GPS is locked, you need to enter the four-digit PIN every time you turn the device on.
2. Drive to the security location that you set when you locked your Garmin GPS. Turn your Garmin GPS on and pull the GPS antenna up so that your GPS is able to acquire the satellite. Once your GPS recognizes that you are at your security location, it will unlock itself.
3. Contact Garmin if you forgot your PIN and security location. You will need to send your GPS to Garmin to have it unlocked. You will also need to send a valid product registration or proof of purchase for Garmin to unlock your GPS. Call Garmin at (800) 800-1020 and get the shipping address and specific instructions from an authorized Garmin representative.
