    I shut all my Garmins completely off every time.
    Even after I completed my trip and it shuts down I still turn it back on and hold the off button till the turn off shows on the screen.
    That way I know it is completely off.
    It only takes a short time to come back on and find the satellites and I put in my trip and off I go.
    Never had any problems with it not doing things correctly.
    Most if not all Garmin GPS car units only last 1 hour with out external power.
    Why even put it in sleep mode when not in use??

    Seeing the way you use it does cause problems.......

    A lie goes around the internet before anyone ever fact checks it if it is true or not. In most cases no one ever checks anything they just accept it as fact.....
