Enabling the Screen Lock

To prevent unauthorized use of your device, you can enable the Screen Lock feature, which requires a Personal Identification Number (PIN). When enabled, you must enter the PIN to unlock the screen each time you turn on the device.
NOTICE

If you enable the Screen Lock feature, Garmin® Support cannot retrieve the PIN or access your device. It is your responsibility to provide the PIN to anyone authorized to use the navigator.

  1. Select Settings > Device > Screen Lock.
  2. Select an option:
    • To enable the screen lock and set a new PIN, select Require PIN, and enter a PIN number.

    • To change your PIN number, select Change PIN, and enter a PIN number.

    • To disable the screen lock, clear the Require PIN check box.
