Garmin 2457..

I am on my way to La Manzanilla next week and am wondering..will my 2457 just update after I turn it on? Looking on the Garmin site and looking thru Google..I am no further ahead.

Going to be renting a car a couple times and have grown accustomed to having the GPS to get really lost with.

Many thanks

  • You have to download Garmin Express to your PC from the Garmin website. Then follow the instructions to do an update.
  • Plug your 2457 into your computer and run Garmin Express which will check and update your Garmin as needed.
  • Gary, not sure about your Garmin, but our older unit has lifetime updates and I find that the updates don't happen that frequently, I check every few months with Express as mentioned before we head out on a trip. If you do this before you leave you should be good. Even if you don't, not much of significance will change anyways!
