Sure, I know how to get at home. :lol:
But this is clearly a map error.
So, just loading another map instead of the default ones will not solve the problem?
TIA

Where to get best free maps for Zumo 396?

Hello all, I'm using the default maps for my Zumo 396: EU North and EU south. But they seem quite approximative: when I get back to home I get a prompt to do a U turn when, actually, I just need to turn left. So, my question is: is there a free map that is better than the pre-installed ones? Where c...

Re: zumo 396 turns indications and full voice prompts only in GPS simulation mode

When I lose voice prompts on my 590 or XT, it usually means I've activated more than one routable map. Unchecking either the City Navigator map or my OSM map in My Maps corrects the problem. Actually I have 3 items in MAPS: EU North EU South City Navigator What is the scope of City Navigator? TIA t...

Re: Zumo 396 no voice indications

finally I decided to reset the Zumo to factory default using the service menu and wiping all data. I deleted unused maps using Javawa and reconfigured leaving most to default. This morning I've set a test trip to my work and it worked as expected: turn indications, voice prompts... a real navigator,...

Re: zumo 396 turns indications and full voice prompts only in GPS simulation mode

See this discussion: https://www.zumouserforums.co.uk/viewtopic.php?t=2366 LOL! That's me that started that topic. But this one is little different, since it's inherrent the turns indications and other advices on the screen. So, I reset the ZUmo to factory default and wiped all maps except the defa...

Re: Zumo 396 no voice indications

A sideways look at this. You get the first prompt and then nothing. That suggests that the sound connection is ok. So my guess is that the Zumo isn't saying anything ! A situation that would create this situation. You have your start point very close to where you start riding. And you have off-rout...

zumo 396 turns indications and full voice prompts only in GPS simulation mode

hello all, I can't make my zumo be useful. I'm trying to make it display indications and prompts for voice directions but when I start a new trip I get only one voice indication (and some other useless alerts (loss satellite signal...)) and nothing else. I miss also the next turn distance and info. ...

Re: Zumo 396 no voice indications

after reading some other comments I disabled a custom map I downloaded months ago. Now I have only the default map active.
I will post here my results.

Re: Zumo 396 no voice indications

I connected the head set (cardo freecom 1+) to zumo. So I ear notifications from the headset. It works, but when starting a new trip I only ear the first indication and then ... nothing else...

Zumo 396 no voice indications

Hello all, I can't make use of my Zumo 396. I get only the first voice prompt and then... nothing. I'm abandoned to myself or the screen. I've set a simple trip (home to work) and it didn't work. Silence all over the whole trip. I've got only a work in progress alert... and the satellite alert in a ...
