    Hi @pelle013

    Don't quite understand why Phones is mentioned but this is from a Via Manual to change to a Camper Map

    1. Tap Settings in the Main menu.
    2. Tap Switch map then tap Phones.
    3. Tap the camper map to select it.
    4. Click Done in the Settings menu to return to the driving view.

    Does your say Phones???

    Hi @pelle013

    I can understand your reply but that is the wording on the USA website Via manual. page 94not a phone manual.

    Hence my query do you have the word Phones appear when you tap Change the Map if so Tap Phones and see if the USA map appears.

    Here is manual

    Hi @pelle013

    What are the first 2 letters of your Via 1505. Most versions of that unit do not appear to have a SD slot for extra memory. If the unit has a memory slot is the SD card in it fully clipped in. Has the USA map been removed and replace by the European map because of the limited memory available on the units. . If so are both maps listed when you connect to the PC for updates. If so do you get the option to change the map there.
