Just purchased Garmin 255W and charged the unit but it will not turn on unless connected to a power source. It is supposed to turn on even if you walk or use a bicycle. Why is it not turning on?

Garmin does not do free. If you bought a new unit - - brand new they give you one free update IF - and only IF - the maps on your new one isn't current.

How do we update our garmin nuvi 255

To download the latest unit software visit Garmin website: www.garmin.com/webupdater
First you have to set up an account at Garmin using the serial number on your GPS. Once you do that you can download firmware update for free.
After installing WebUpdater once from the Garmin website, perform all future software updates from your computer. Simply connect your compatible Garmin device to your computer, then run WebUpdater from your computer's "Start Menu" by selecting "Start", "Programs", "Garmin", and finally "WebUpdater"
REMEMBER: It takes hours to do a complete a map update.
Unless you bought the Lifetime maps you may have to pay for current maps.
By the way, the correct Garmin approved power OR download cables are a must!!
Does this help? Let us know. Thanks.

I just purchased a Garmin nuvi 255, and the maps are inaccurate.
Just go to http://www.garmin.com There will be a registeration link. Yes I think that you will get a free mapupdate with your registeration at least they used to do that. You will need your unit serial number and model.
