Delete maps

Former Member over 5 years ago

Hello, is someone knows how to delete maps in the fenix 6, and how I can differenciate the maps in the explorer. I want te delete the asia pacific map, but it's difficult to find it........Can I delete all maps and install after, or there is a risk? thank you

Hi, connect your watch to a PC with basecamp up and running (doesn't matter if you connect the watch first and start basecamp or the other way around). After a while (you will see some bars on the left side) the maps from the watch are loaded and visible within basecamp. Afterwards: click on one of those maps and in the bottom left area you will see the filename of this particular map.

Open an file explorer, browse to the <watch>/GARMIN folder and delete the file with the name you figured out with the first step.
I hope this helps,
Ron

Hello Ronald

I have similar issue - I loaded my brand new 6X Solar Pro with all available maps now my memory is 110% full.
I need to delete all with exception the TOPO AU&NZ ones. Please can you assist me with that?
Cheers mate.
