Designed for the Motorcyclist

navigator that's born to ride. This regionalized zūmo version is
preloaded with maps for one region of Europe. Designed by
bikers, zūmo 500 ’s motorcycle-friendly features make it easy to
operate while in the saddle.
Operate Easily on Two
Wheels
Durable and intuitive, zūmo 500 is built specifically for
motorcycles:
- Glove-friendly touch screen with left-handed controls
makes it easy to operate
- High bright sunlight-readable, UV-resistant display makes
it easy to view your screen
- Motorcycle console for trip information, including fuel
gauge to warn you when its time to fill up
- Motorcycle mount with universal mounting hardware so you

Navigate the Open Road
zūmo 500 comes ready to go right out of the box with
preloaded City Navigator® NT street maps for one region of
Europe. These maps include a hefty points of interest (POIs)
database, featuring motels, restaurants, fuel, ATMs and more.
Simply enter a destination, and zūmo takes you there with
turn-by-turn voice prompts. In addition, zūmo accepts customized
points of interest such as school zones and safety cameras and
includes proximity alerts to warn of upcoming POIs. It is also
compatible with Garmin's Tour Guide™ — a free utility that
allows you to build and upload a database of POIs that are
encoded with photos and MP3 files.
A rechargeable, removable lithium-ion battery is integrated
into zūmo for trip planning or use on foot. In addition, zūmo
accepts additional maps — making it the ultimate off-road
navigator.
Add Optional Traffic
To help you stay ahead of traffic , zūmo can receive optional
TMC traffic alerts (in select cities) when used with a
compatible traffic receiver. Simply press a button on the
screen, and zūmo recalculates your route to avoid traffic
tie-ups.
Make Hands-Free Calls
and Receive Wireless Voice Prompts
With zūmo’s Bluetooth® wireless technology, you can talk on
the phone safely without removing your gloves or helmet. Connect
zūmo to your Bluetooth-enabled headset/helmet and cell phone to
make and receive hands-free calls. You can even make phone calls
to POIs through zūmo’s Bluetooth interface. In addition, zūmo
transmits navigation voice prompts to your headset so you can
listen wirelessly.
Plan Your Adventures and Share Your Rides
zūmo 500 makes it easy to plan your next trip and share
routes with your riding buddies. Plan trips on your computer
before you start: search for food and fuel stops and local
attractions. Then, transfer your route to zūmo and go.
At the end of the day, share your favorite places and rides
with other zūmo riders, and review your travels in Google™
Earth. SD card expansion makes it easy for storage and route
sharing. Download routes to share with your riding buddies —
even load mp3 files to your unit to enjoy tunes on the road. In
addition, JPEG Picture Viewer lets you share photos of your
adventures with friends and family.
