Zumo 595 lost the maps whilst on holiday

We are touring in France, 2 days ago after a coffee I tried to turn the zumo back on but it didn't respond, I pulled and refitted the battery, it powered up and said maps updated....

On my 550 I had a spring clip to stop it detatching from the bracket

Re: Learning and using Basecamp

Many thanks to all your advice guys, when i started looking at basecamp after using mapsource for about 10 years I was tempted to bin it and stay with my comfortable mapsource but I felt my new 595lm which is replacing my old 550 deserved a new approach /// the journey continues! :D
