Let Garmin share some important information about your Garmin DriveSmart™ 66 or 76
Your Garmin DriveSmart™ 66 or 76 includes your DriveSmart™ navigation device,
a mount, suction cup, vehicle power adapter and vehicle power cable
First, let’s review how to install your Garmin DriveSmart™ in your vehicle
To begin, simply choose an appropriate location to install your Garmin DriveSmart™
When installing the device in a vehicle, install the device and power cable securely so they do
not interfere with the vehicle operating controls. Interference with the vehicle operating controls
can result in a collision which could result in injury or death. Choose a location that allows
the device to clearly hear your voice. You should avoid placing the device near a speaker or air
vent, which can produce noise that interferes with the microphones. Choose a location that
is within easy reach. Thoroughly clean the windshield before installing the mount. This
product contains a lithium-ion battery. To prevent the possibility of personal injury or product
damage caused by battery exposure to extreme heat, store the device out of direct sunlight.
Press the suction cup to the windshield, and flip the lever back toward the windshield
Then, press the mount onto the suction cup ball until it snaps into place
Plug the USB-C end of the vehicle power cable into the USB power and data port on your device
This looks similar to other USB Connections, but the USB-C connection is different
Next, plug the vehicle power adapter into a power outlet in your vehicle
The vehicle power adapter is designed to properly power and charge your Garmin DriveSmart™
The 3.5 millimeter audio out port can be used with an audio aux-in, if your vehicle has one available
This will allow your Garmin DriveSmart™ audio to play through your vehicle’s audio system
Plug the blue USB-A end of the vehicle power cable
into the blue USB port on your vehicle power adapter
Ensure the cable is fully inserted
The blue USB port is used to power your Garmin DriveSmart™
and enable the 3.5 millimeter audio out port
The second white USB port can be used to power a Garmin Dash Cam™
(purchased separately), a cell phone or other compatible accessory
Fit the tab on the top of the mount into the slot on the back of the device,
and press the bottom of the mount into the device until it clicks
Finally, adjust your Garmin DriveSmart™ to an appropriate viewing angle
Your Garmin DriveSmart™ 66 or 76 is capable of completing
software and map updates with a home highspeed Wi-Fi® internet connection
This is the recommended method to keep your device up to date
Your Garmin DriveSmart™ has many advanced features, including voice activated navigation and
Amazon Alexa™ voice assistant, which can both be disabled by pressing this button for two seconds
Drivers should focus on driving and only use this function when safe to do so
The Garmin Drive™ app must be open and running on the user’s compatible smartphone
in order for the Alexa™ functionality to work and for access to live services
Your Garmin DriveSmart™ also has a microSD™ card reader
for expanding the memory on your device if needed
And that’s it!
