GettinG Started

Your VIB 10/11 plays audio from

your Garmin GPS navigator through

your vehicle’s speakers. When you

are navigating a route, the VIB 10/11

mutes the stereo’s audio and plays

the navigation prompts through your

speakers. If a mobile phone with

Bluetooth

wireless technology is

connected to the GPS navigator, calls are

heard through the vehicle’s speakers.

Updating the GPS

Navigator Software

To operate the GPS navigator with

the VIB, you need to update the GPS

navigator’s software.

1. Go to www.garmin.com/products

/webupdater and download

WebUpdater to your computer.

2. Connect the GPS navigator to

your computer using the mini-

USB cable.

3. Run WebUpdater, and follow the

screen prompts.

After conrming that you want to

perform an update, WebUpdater

automatically downloads the update and

installs it on your GPS navigator.

the GPS navigator or cradle.

➊

➋

Audio Output

The VIB mutes or pauses the vehicle’s

stereo output to sound the navigation

prompts or phone calls.

If the VIB HiFi audio source was

connected to your radio’s auxiliary input

(optional), you can play MP3s on your

GPS navigator and hear the MP3s over

your vehicle’s speakers. You may need

to select the appropriate audio source

on the stereo to hear the MP3s. Refer to

your stereo’s manual.

Viewing Video

Do not attempt to operate or watch

video input while operating a vehicle.

Driver operation or viewing of video

input while the vehicle is moving could

cause an accident or collision resulting

in property damage, serious injury, or

death.

Controlling the Volume

The VIB allows you to set the volume

on your GPS navigator independently of

your stereo. Control your stereo volume

as you normally would. Adjust the

volume on your GPS navigator as you

normally would as well.

TMC trafc receiver that receives trafc

information broadcast over the FM

Radio Data System.



Note: Garmin is not responsible

for the accuracy of the trafc

information. The FM trafc

receiver simply receives signals

from the trafc service provider

and shows that information on

your GPS navigator.

VIB 10/11 Reference Guide 3

The power cable must be plugged into

your GPS navigator to receive trafc

data. You must be in data range of an

FM station transmitting TMC (Trafc

one). Your GPS navigator receives

trafc data as soon as it acquires

satellite signals and receives

trafc signals from the trafc

service provider.
