Red Light and Speed Cameras
NOTICE
Garmin is not responsible for the accuracy of or the
consequences of using a red light or speed camera database.
NOTE: This feature is not available for all regions or product
models.
Information about red light and speed camera locations is
available in some areas for some product models. The device
alerts you when you approach a reported speed or red light
camera.
• Live red light and safety camera data is available as a
subscription from Garmin Live Services using the
Smartphone Link app (Garmin Live Services, page 15).
• You must purchase a subscription to download and store
safety camera data on your device. Go to garmin.com
/speedcameras to check availability and compatibility, or to
purchase a subscription or one-time update. You can
purchase a new region or extend an existing subscription at
any time.
• In some regions, some product bundles include pre-loaded
red light and speed camera data with lifetime updates.
• You can use the Garmin Express
™
software (garmin.com
/express) to update the camera database stored on your
device. You should update your device frequently to receive
the most up-to-date camera information.
Incident Detection and Notifications
Your Garmin DriveAssist device uses built-in sensors to detect a
possible vehicle incident.
• The device automatically saves dash cam video footage
before, during, and after the detected incident.
• If you set up an incident contact, the device can send an
automated text message to that contact when it detects an
incident and your vehicle stops moving. This can help alert
the contact to your situation if you are not able to call or send
a message. This feature requires a connection to
Smartphone Link and an active mobile data connection to
send a message.
• If you have not set up an incident contact, the device
automatically displays the nearest address or geographic
coordinates when it detects an incident. This feature is
helpful if you need to tell emergency personnel your location.
You can select More to view the Where Am I? page.
Setting Up an Incident Contact
Before you can set up an incident detection contact, you must
complete these tasks:
• Connect your device to Smartphone Link (Pairing with Your
Phone and Connecting to Smartphone Link, page 14).
• Select Settings > Wireless Networks, select your phone
name, and verify the Phone calls option is enabled.
The device must have access to the Smartphone Link app and
to your smartphone phone book during the incident contact
setup. If you do not want to use your device for hands-free
calling, you can disable the Phone calls option after the incident
contact setup is complete.

NOTE: The incident notification message includes the name
or nickname you entered, but it is not sent from your phone
number. The message is sent using a third-party service, and
you should inform your incident contact that the incident
message will come from an unknown number.
7
Select OK.

Review the information, and select Save.
Cancelling an Incident Notification
When the device detects an incident, a message and a voice
prompt inform you that a notification will be sent to your incident
contact. A 60-second countdown timer starts when the incident
is detected, and the device sends the notification automatically
when the timer expires. If you do not want to send the
notification, you can cancel it.
Before the timer expires, select Cancel.
Disabling Incident Notifications
While incident notifications are disabled, the device does not
send an SMS notification when it detects an incident.
1
Select Settings > Driver Assistance > Incident
Notification.
2
Clear the Incident Detection SMS check box.
Advanced Driver Assistance System
Your device includes an advanced driver assistance system
(ADAS), which uses the integrated dash camera to provide
warnings and alerts about your driving environment.
You can enable or disable each of the advanced driver
assistance features in the Driver Assistance settings (Driver
Assistance Settings, page 22).
