Managing Content
You can also add, delete or change the maps you have installed on your navigation device using the My Content tab.
When you scroll down to My Maps, you see the maps that are installed on as well as available for your device. Click on a map image to see more details.
- Change - Install a map with different coverage to get a smaller or larger version. Some maps allow you to select versions with different country coverage so you can install a smaller map that still suits your needs.
- Uninstall - Delete the selected map. If you have several maps installed you can delete maps to free up space, but you always need to have at least one map installed on your device.
- Install - Add a new map for use on your navigation device. The section My Maps shows all the maps that were included with your device and that you have purchased for it, so you can freely install or swap these around.
