Title: Garmin Question
Post by: slimhogdog on February 09, 2012, 11:23:30 am
Anyone have any problems with their Garmin handheld just shutting off on them? I had this problem with the 220 and it's happened a couple times with my 320. I turn it right back on and it picks up right where i left off..just curious if anyone has this happen to them?

The 320 has a power save mode that shuts it off and when you push a button it comes back on

Mine doesnt shut off due to inactivity, it will just shut off right in the middle of me doing something.  220 was the same way.  I have to turn it back on with the power button once it does this.

I had two bars left but that might be it, i'll keep that in mind next time and slap some new batteries in it when it shuts off again.
