Navigate by Touch or by Voice
With its innovative voice-activated navigation, you can control nüvi 3490LMT with your voice — allowing you to keep both hands on the wheel. Simply wake up nüvi with a customisable voice command and begin speaking menu options that are clearly displayed on the screen. When you’re stopped, you can still control the nüvi using its 4.3" (10.92 cm) glass touchscreen.
Garmin Guidance 3.0 allows you to quickly look up addresses and services and be guided to your destination with voice-prompted, turn-by-turn directions that speak street names. It comes preloaded with maps that feature 3-D landmarks and terrain for Australia & New Zealand. It also comes preloaded with more than 612,000 points of interest (POIs) for Australia, and offers the ability to add your own.
Experience nüRoute™ Technology with myTrends™ and traffic Trends™
Smart and good-looking, this uniquely personal navigator comes with advanced routing capabilities that include myTrends™ and traffic Trends™. There’s no subscription necessary, no added costs, your nüvi 3490LMT just does it.
myTrends
With myTrends, when you save your regular destinations in your “Favourites,” your nüvi 3490LMT will, over time, begin to figure out where you’re going even without your telling it! So whether you’re driving to and from work or a regularly scheduled weekly event, your nüvi 3490LMT will help you get there on time.
trafficTrends
With trafficTrends, your nüvi 3490LMT automatically learns daytime trends for traffic flow to improve your routes and better predict your estimated time of arrival based on time of day and day of week. And you get free trafficTrends™ updates every time you connect your device to myGarmin.
Avoid Traffic Tie-ups
With FREE lifetime traffic updates your nüvi 3490LMT can help you avoid delays. We check traffic conditions more than 2 billion times each month, so you can easily reroute around congestion and arrive on time.
Enjoy FREE Lifetime Map Updates
With FREE lifetime map updates, you always have the most up-to-date maps, POIs and navigation information available at your fingertips. Map updates are available for download up to 4 times a year with no subscription or update fees and no expiration dates.
Know the Lane Before It’s Too Late
Now there’s no more guessing which lane you need to be in to make an upcoming turn. Available in select metropolitan areas, photoReal junction view makes unfamiliar intersections and exits easy to navigate. When you approach an exit or interchange, nüvi 3490LMT will enter split screen mode and show you a realistic depiction of intersections on your route, complete with road signs and arrows that indicate the proper lane for navigation. Bird’s Eye junction view also is included for a top-down look at upcoming interchanges.
Go Beyond Navigation
Point-to-point navigation is just the beginning. nüvi 3490LMT also features a microSD™ card slot so you can store and use detailed Automotive maps or download custom voices and vehicles for free from the Garmin Garage. It also comes with a powered mount that charges while you drive while dual-orientation functionality lets you hold nüvi vertically or horizontally for added convenience driving or walking. And for added convenience and safety, built-in Bluetooth® connectivity lets you make and take hands-free calls and texts.
nüvi 3490LMT’s “Where Am I?” emergency locator provides your exact latitude and longitude coordinates, the nearest address and intersection, and the closest hospitals, police stations and more. And Enhanced Exit Services tells you what services you’re approaching on the highway
