Navigate the Open Road
z?mo 550 comes ready to go right out of the box with preloaded City Navigator® NT street maps and a hefty points of interest (POIs) database, including motels, restaurants, fuel, ATMs and more. Simply enter a destination, and z?mo takes you there with turn-by-turn voice directions that speak street names. In addition, z?mo 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 (three hour typical use) is integrated into z?mo for trip planning or use on foot. In addition, z?mo even accepts electronic maps making it the ultimate off-road navigator.
Add Optional Traffic, Weather, and Radio
With optional XM subscriptions and an XM antenna, you can check the weather, move ahead of traffic and listen to the radio when you travel with z?mo. As an alternative, z?mo can receive optional TMC traffic alerts (in select cities) when used with a compatible traffic receiver. Simply press a button on the screen, and z?mo recalculates your route to avoid traffic tie-ups.
Make Hands-Free Calls and Receive Wireless Voice Prompts
With z?mos Bluetooth® wireless technology, you can talk on the phone safely without removing your gloves or helmet. Connect z?mo 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 z?mos Bluetooth interface. In addition, z?mo transmits navigation voice prompts to your headset so you can listen wirelessly.
