Nuvi 260 - please how to make the MP3 alarm work?

Assuming I have the gpx and bmp files loaded - and I think I do, how then do I get the nuvi to announce the coming speed camera for example (or rest area).
Thx
Shaun

If you have the GPX and BMP files loaded correctly you now need to download the MP3 voice files. These need to go in the same directory as the GPX and BMP files all three files must have exactly the same name only the file extensions are different.
Also you need to turn on proximity alerts on your nuvi. Proximity alerts are not available for ordinary PIO.s such as rest areas.
