Garmin Power Saving Mode

 

I have been having problems getting the internal battery on my Garmin Zumo XT fully charged when using a Garmin charger in the house.

I am now using an Anker charger that puts out 5 volts and 3 amps.

It displayed this message a bit ago, so I will check in the morning.

“Charging the battery.

Press the Power key to turn on.”

Turning the Device On or Off

To turn the device on, press the power button, or connect the device to power.

To put the device in power saving mode, press the power button while the device is on.

While in power saving mode, the screen is off and the device uses very little power, but it can wake instantly for use.

TIP: You can charge your device faster by putting it in power saving mode while charging the battery.
To turn off the device completely, hold the power button until a prompt appears on the screen, and select Off.
The prompt appears after five seconds. If you release the power button before the prompt appears, the device enters power saving mode.

I was pleasantly surprised to see this message on my Garmin Zumo XT this morning:

"Charging complete.

Press the Power key to turn on."
