In addition to the simple touch-screen display it includes a high-sensitivity GPS receiver that provides faster acquisition times and maintains signal under heavy foliage and near city skyscrapers. The automotive-grade, sunlight-readable, anti-glare display makes it easier to see where you're traveling. |

You can also monitor traffic tie-ups with the addition of an optional FM TMC traffic receiver in select cities. By adding traffic services and a receiver to your c530, you are notified of accidents, road construction, and weather-related traffic delays and using the touch screen icon you can calculate a new route.
Other optional software available on plug-in SD cards lets you instantly add new features to your c530 without connecting to your computer. These optional packages include the Garmin Travel Guide and Savers Guide that gives you helpful advice. The c530 includes a new high-sensitivity WAAS-capable GPS receiver by SiRF, and a rechargeable battery that last up to 8 hours between charges.
The StreetPilot c530 unit comes with preloaded City Navigator NT North America, vehicle suction cup mount, dashboard disk, carrying case, 12-volt cigarette lighter adapter, USB interface cable, carry case, and owner's manual. The c530 also includes the Garmin Lock anti-theft feature that disables the unit from performing any functions until you type in a specific 4-digit PIN or take the unit to a predetermined location. |
