Reset The Total Miles On A Nuvi

The Garmin Nuvi GPS unit features an odometer that records the amount of miles traveled when following the directions provided by the device. If you have entered several way points in your directions, the unit will record the total amount of miles traveled from the starting to the ending point. While this is a useful feature, it does not provide information on the amount of miles traveled between two or more way points within the overall trip. Reset the odometer if you want to record the amount of miles traveled between two points within a set of directions.


Instructions


1. Tap the "Speed" or "Arrival" buttons on the map screen to bring up the trip information screen. The "Total Miles" portion of the screen is located on the right side of the screen.


2. Press the "Reset Trip" button on the bottom of the screen to reset all of the information on your trip, including the "Total Miles" counter.


3. Return to the map screen by pressing the "Back" button on the bottom of the screen.
