¹If you purchase a nüs Lifetime subscription (sold separately
or bundled together with certain GPS models), you will receive up
to 4 data updates per year, when and as such updates are made
available on Garmin’s website, for 1 compatible Garmin product
until your product’s useful life expires or Garmin no longer
receives data from its third party supplier, whichever is
shorter. A product’s “useful life” means the period during which
the product (a) has sufficient memory capacity and other required
technical capabilities to utilize current data and (b) is
capable of operating as intended without major repairs. A product
will be deemed to be out of service and its useful life to be
ended if no updates have been downloaded for such product for a
period of 24 months or more. Unless otherwise stated, the updates
you receive under the subscription will be updates to the same
geographic data originally included with your Garmin product
when originally purchased. In some instances, your Garmin product
might not have sufficient memory remaining for you to load an
update to the data, in which case you will need to either (a)
select reduced data coverage for your updates, or (b)
purchase separately a microSD™/SD™ card (if and as applicable to
your Garmin product) and load all or a portion of the data
coverage for your updates to the card and insert the card into
the microSD/SD card slot contained in your Garmin product. If
neither of the measures in (a) or (b) can be used to address your
product’s lack of sufficient remaining memory, then Garmin may
conclude that the “useful life” of your product has expired.
Garmin may terminate your nüs Lifetime subscription at any
time if you violate any of the terms of this agreement or your
subscription. Your nüs Lifetime subscription may not be
transferred to another Garmin product.
²FREE lifetime traffic updates may not be transferred to another
person or another Garmin product. Lifetime traffic extends for
the useful life of your Garmin traffic receiver (as long as you
own a compatible Garmin GPS) or as long as Garmin receives
traffic data from its traffic supplier, whichever is shorter. A
traffic receiver’s “useful life” means the period during which
the receiver (a) has the required technical capabilities to
utilize current traffic data service and (b) is capable of
operating as intended without major repairs. Traffic content not
available for all areas. See traffic coverage areas.
