Daily Operation Guidelines
The following points are guidelines to follow when using the Garmin eLog™ system. Your motor carrier may have different operation requirements. Follow your motor carrier's recommendations for daily operation.
- Verify the dēzl™ is securely mounted in the vehicle and its screen is visible from a normal seated position.
- Verify Bluetooth® wireless technology and location services are enabled on your device at all times while using the Garmin eLog adapter.
- Verify the Garmin eLog app is running and the Garmin eLog adapter is secured to the vehicle diagnostic port before starting the vehicle.
- Log in to the Garmin eLog app at the start of each day.
- Review and claim all logs recorded for an unidentified driver, if applicable.
- At the end of each work day, log out of the Garmin eLog app after turning off the engine.
- Certify your records, and submit them to your motor carrier at the end of each day (Certifying Daily Logs).
