Has anyone tried to switch map region on the 3598

If I choose this it says that the region you have selected does not support voice-activated navigation

Bit silly when selecting any of the regions it says the same thing and tells you to install the full coverage of europe.

I've selected the UK & Ireland option just to see if it fixes the grey blocks on screens (doubtful but you never know)

well that didn't work as you still get the grey blocks and you can't find places so the voice search is removed for British English

Same issue here so would like to know what's going on. The new mapping exceeds the memory of my unit / SD card. Only had it 3 months!

Going to a selected regional update brought up the same warning as the OP has found.........

Afraid that's the way it is, see this FAQ https://support.garmin.com/support/searchSupport/case.faces?caseId=%7B1df288e0-19f9-11e0-d39a-000000000000%7D

The answer is just to install a 8Gb sd card ... then memory space isn't an issue.

So do I ... but it was a bug a while back which seems to have been reintroduced. Hence the advice back up first Wink

If they've gone either restore them from a back up or click the Device tab in Express, scroll down to the Add additional voices and select British English.

I did notice there was a Serena update on the same day as my 2015.10

I wonder if GE tries to remove anything it can if deems there isn't enough room?

Well that's the idea ... but it's meant to offer you the choice of whether you want to delete voices ... seems it's no longer doing that with this version (3.2.4).

Don't be surprised to see a new version out shortly Wink
