Garmin nuvi 310 Quick Reference Manual
Mounting on the Windshield
Check your state and local traffic laws before mounting. Currently, state
laws in California and Minnesota prohibit drivers from using suction
mounts on their windshields while operating motor vehicles. Other
Garmin dashboard or friction mounting options should be used. See the
Important Safety and Product Information guide for more details.
