Let Garmin assist getting you started with your zūmo® XT2 navigator.
Your zūmo® XT2 device will come with a motorcycle mount and hardware,
motorcycle power cable and a USB-C cable.
Check out the link in this video for more info
on mounting and powering the zūmo® XT2 on your motorcycle.
Let’s begin by going over the zūmo® XT2 device hardware.
The power button is located in the upper-right hand corner on
the back of the device and is indicated by the power symbol.
This is used for powering the device on and off.
On the bottom of the device is the USB-C port,
which is used for connecting to a computer or AC adapter.
Your microSD™ card can be inserted into the slot next to the USB-C port.
Using a microSD™ card will provide additional storage space for maps and other data.
The zūmo® XT2 supports a microSD™ card between 4 GB and 256 GB.
Now that we have covered the hardware basics, let’s go over the initial setup of the device.
When you connect the device to power and turn it on for the first time,
you will be asked to choose a locale.
Then, choose a language and select “OK.”
You can connect to the Tread® smartphone app to access additional features including live
traffic updates and syncing Garmin Explore™ account data.
For more assistance, check out our videos on pairing your zūmo®
XT2 device to the Tread® app linked in this video.
Next, you can connect to an available Wi-Fi® network.
Select the network you would like to connect to.
If necessary, enter a password and select “Done.”
You will be asked for your consent to Garmin collecting, using and sharing your device data.
Select either “Yes” or “No.”
Select “Email Address” and enter your email to register your device.
Select “Offers and Promotions” if you want to receive promotional emails from Garmin.
Then, select “Continue.”
You can connect your zūmo® XT2 device to your Bluetooth® headset
to hear navigation instructions, listen to music or make hands free phone calls.
Set your headset to pairing mode, select “Connect Now” and follow the on-screen steps.
Read and agree to the warning.
The initial setup has now been completed.
If necessary, go to an open area with a clear view of the sky to acquire satellite GPS signals.
Next, let’s check for available updates to your device.
You can use a computer and the Garmin Express software if necessary,
but the Wi-Fi® option requires fewer steps.
To successfully complete a Wi-Fi® update,
a wireless connection to home high-speed internet is required.
It is important to avoid using a mobile hotspot.
Check out our Wi-Fi® connections video (linked in this video) for
tips to ensure your Wi-Fi® update is successful.
From the main screen, select “Settings.”
Then, select “Updates.”
Your device will automatically search for available Map and Software updates.
A blue download arrow indicates an update is available.
A green check mark indicates it is up to date.
Select “Install All” to start all available updates.
Read and accept the End User License Agreement.
Read the important installation notes and select “Start.”
If you have not connected your device to a power source, you will now be prompted to do so.
Follow the on-screen prompts.
These updates will take an extended period of time.
You will not be able to use your device during the update.
Once the update has finished downloading, wait for the device to restart.
Your zūmo® XT2 is now ready to use.
And that’s it!
Thanks for watching!
