Press and hold power button

The power button on the front of the unit should be pressed and help down for several seconds. Pressure should be applied and let off once the unit powers on.

Depleted/dead batteries

If your Garmin V has not been used recently or left on, the batteries may be depleted. Make sure your Garmin V is plugged into a wall outlet or computer and then look for activity. Your Garmin should recognize that it is plugged in to a power source and begin charging. If your unit refuses to charge or doesn't hold a charge for very long, you should replace the batteries.
