The device alerts you when you approach a reported speed or red light camera.
In some areas, your device can receive red light and speed camera data while connected to a smartphone
running the Tread app.
You can use the Garmin Express
software (garmin.com/express) or the Tread app to update the camera
database stored on your device. You should update your device frequently to receive the most up-to-date
camera information.
Incident Detection and Notifications
WARNING
The device allows you to send your location to an emergency contact. This is a supplemental feature and
should not be relied upon as a primary method to obtain emergency assistance. The Tread app does not
contact emergency services on your behalf.
NOTICE
To use this feature, your device must be connected to the Tread app using Bluetooth technology. You can set
emergency contacts using the Tread app.
To use this feature, your device must be connected to a compatible external power source using the included
mount or a USB cable.
Your zūmo device uses built-in sensors to detect a possible vehicle incident.
If you set up an emergency contact, the device can send an automated text message to that contact when it
detects an incident and your vehicle stops moving. This can help alert the contact to your situation if you are
not able to call or send a message. This feature requires your device to be connected to the Tread app using
Bluetooth technology and your phone to have an active mobile data connection to send a message.
If you have not set up an emergency contact, the device automatically displays the nearest address or
geographic coordinates, if available, when it detects an incident. This feature is helpful if you need to tell
emergency personnel your location.
If you have an inReach
®
satellite communicator connected to your zūmo device, you can manually send an
SOS when your zūmo device detects an incident.
