Garmin zumo 595 Questions and Answers

Question: I just bought a zumo 595lm and wondered if you supply marine maps for it?

Answer: Unfortunately the Garmin zumo 595LM is not compatible with Garmin BlueCharts. You would need to purchase a Garmin device such as the Garmin GPSMAP 276Cx.

---

Question: Is there a mount available for the garmin zumo 595lm with just the power supply. I do not require the microphone or stereo in or out as I use bluetooth. The length of these cables make it hard to hide on my motorcycle.

Answer: Garmin only produce the one Garmin zumo 595 Motorcycle Mount. Unfortunately, Garmin do not manufacturer the mount without the extra cabling that you don't require.

Question: Will my new Garmin zumo 595 Sat Nav fit my existing zumo 660 Garmin motorcycle mount?

Answer: Unfortnately not, the Garmin zumo 595 and zumo 660 use completely different mount cradles. The two are not compatible with each other. You will however be able to use the universal RAM mount kit to mount the zumo 595 cradle onto. The following two webpage may be useful to you:

Question: Is there a charge lead that I can purchase for a zumo 595 to plug from a usb charge port into the sat nav backplate? I can only seem to find a charge lead with a cigarette lighter port and not a usb.

Answer: Yes, there is a micro USB cable to connect to a PC - BUT this is primarily intended to allow the transfer of data:

Garmin advise that it will take at least four hours via the trickle charge from a PC/Laptop USB connection and the zumo may only be operable for a relatively short period when disconnected from this power. If you are referring to any other USB outlet then we do not know whether or not this will be compatible. Some USB devices provide too high a voltage and may damage your zumo.When connected to a USB outlet the zumo may believe that it is waiting for a software download or map update from a PC - and display an appropriate message.

To provide reliable power to your Garmin zumo 595 you need to power via the genuine motorcycle mount or the automotive mount and unique zumo 595 motorcycle or vehicle power cable.

There is a mains AC charger/adapter for indoor charging which can be connected to the back of the zumo. This charger has the necessary switching gear so that the zumo does not believe it is only connected to a PC and awaiting a software download.
