Appendix Changing the Fuse Caution: When replacing the fuse, do not lose any of the small pieces, and ensure they are put back in the proper place. If your unit does not charge in your vehicle, you may need to replace the fuse located at the tip of the automotive adapter. 1. Unscrew the round end piece, and remove it. 2. Remove the fuse (glass and silver cylinder), and replace with a 3A fastblow fuse. 3. Ensure that the silver tip is placed in the end piece. Screw on the end piece. End piece Silver tip Fuse About GPS Satellite Signals Your aera must acquire GPS (Global Positioning System) satellite signals to navigate. If you are indoors, near tall buildings or trees, or in a parking garage, your aera cannot acquire satellites. Go outside to an area free from tall obstructions to use your aera. When your aera has acquired satellite signals, the signal strength bars on the Menu page are green . When it loses satellite signals, the bars turn red or clear . For more information about GPS, go to www.garmin.com/aboutGPS. Removing the aera and Mount To remove the aera from the cradle, press the button on the side of the cradle, and tilt the aera forward. To remove the cradle from the friction mount, turn the cradle to the right or the left. Apply pressure until the socket on the cradle releases the ball on the mount. NOTE: Reconnecting the cradle to the friction mount requires significant force. Press the ball firmly into the socket. 36 aera 500 Series Owner's Manual
