In early September, we launched an easier to navigate website to help you better understand our products and services. At the same time, we created a more consistent look between your My Account login and the website. If you haven’t been around for a few weeks or haven’t logged into your account (Hey guys, don’t forget, SPOT can be a part of your year around activities!), check it out at www.findmespot.com. Click on My Account to access your SPOT account. Here you’ll find easier to use toolbars and status updates. Don’t forget to keep your profile and contact information, including billing, always up to date.

SPOT strongly recommends that you send and verify an OK/Check message before using your SPOT on your journeys. At a minimum, you must send a check ok message to obtain a GPS fix:

• On first use

• Anytime you have traveled more than 600 miles

• Anytime you have changed the batteries

• Anytime you have not used the unit for over two (2) weeks
