The Garmin DriveSmart 66 MT-D is compatible with the Garmin BC 50 reversing camera. The BC 50 has been specially developed for compatible Garmin navigation devices such as the DriveSmart series. You can therefore connect the BC 50 to your Garmin DriveSmart 66 MT-D. The BC 40 is not explicitly mentioned in the compatibility lists, so compatibility with this camera is not guaranteed.
Automatically generated from the .Traffic radio with DAB+ only works in the car with the cable plugged into the cigarette lighter. The DAB+ aerial is built into the cable.
The device can be charged not only via the cigarette lighter, but also via the USB port.
Garmin DriveSmart devices with the additional designation MT-D receive traffic information via DAB. Only the supplied connection cable with built-in receiver is required. Therefore, no mobile phone is necessary for the pure traffic information! - Additional information such as weather and short-term information can, of course, also be received via the Garmin APP if desired. Devices with the additional designation MT-S show the traffic information only via the Garmin mobile app. Of course, the mobile must have permanent reception.
So the only difference is whether or not there is an ATM. Both models can collect traffic information from a smartphone connected via Bluetooth. The DAB makes it possible to obtain this information without the presence of a smartphone nearby. Indeed, it seems that this service will cease in 2025 in some countries, but Switzerland does not seem to be concerned. Note that in some countries this is not available at all. The big advantage of DAB is that you can receive traffic information without using a mobile network, which can be interesting when you are abroad to avoid roaming charges.
According to the manufacturer, it is possible according to the following instructions: Open the settings for language and keyboard by selecting Settings > Language and Keyboard in the main menu. This is possible in a wide variety of languages, e.g. English, French, etc.
It is only possible to connect Alexa devices to the car radio via the adapter and an AUX cable. Unfortunately, this is not possible with this DriveSmart 66.
Thank you very much for the tip. This is the MT-D version. I have forwarded this to the responsible department for adjustment.
There is a problem with the system of the navigator. By touching a field, e.g. "Favourites", the background colour turns brown, but nothing happens I have learned to live with this so that touching is not too short, not too long and sometimes you have to touch several times. Instead of sending you the device, waiting a few weeks without a device and getting it back with the same problem, I decided to live with the fact that I am using a poor quality device. Regards Dr H. Fidler
It is the MT-D.
