I use an 8GB card in my Zumo 550 with no problems. I have put central europe on the unit, and GB on the SD card. Saves a lot of 'clicking' in map install!

First update is free within 60 days, then Amazon are doing lifetime updates for around £55. This gives up to 4 a year, a bargain, surely? |

Hi,
I have a Zumo and a Nuvi 860 both with lifetime updates. Can I use the same downloaded update for both, or do I have to download it twice?
Thanks

Won't extract on mine, either. It seems a bit small at 2.17 GB as opposed to 3.53 for the previous version...... |

Hi,
Is there an SD card in the unit? If there is, it could be that the demo programme is on that and removing it may solve your problem. If not then I agree that it should go back for help/refu ... |

Thanks for that, it explains why I get the odd dead battery. I'm sure I didn't have this problem with my old 660 which had a 'proper' on/off switch, but I suppose thats progress. |

Hi, my 860 has the occaisional habit of running its battery down despite being shut down correctly. Can I leave it permanently on charge with the home charger without harming it?
