Can you use this in Swtizerland (USA to Switzerland)

Although I have not traveled to Switzerland, I would say 'yes'. The "How to Use" instructions say, for Europe, pull out the plug in the middle. For the UK and Spain, push the button to the "open" position and the plug will flip out. It seems that the UK and Spain have a different electrical standard than the rest of Europe. In Hong Kong and Taiwan, some hotels have standard US 110V plugs, so an adapter is not needed. This is from having actually traveled to those 2 places. The same situation may or may not apply to Switzerland, but it is worth checking out if and when you travel there.

No idea. But I can assure you I used it in Barcelona, Paris, Berlin, Viena, Italy and Peru, without any problem.

No, Switzerland uses this type J. Iceland looks to use 3 types (the basic europe connector might work) For more information look at the following http://www.adaptelec.com/index.php?main_page=document_general_info&products_id=157

I do not think so unless Zurich uses the same kind of electrical system as used in the United States. My advice to you is to buy a 220 converter. Best of luck

I don't believe so....like you mentioned I have only had luck with the low speed with traveling out of the US. Best thing I have done is bought a cheap hair dryer in Europe - that way you can get a high speed.

Yes it will. I've used my Garmin from Montana to South Carolina, including North Dakota, Minnesota, Wisconsin, Illinois, Indiana, Ohio, Kentucky, Tennessee, and North Carolina in between. It worked perfectly. I recommend adding a SDHC card (4 gigabytes is enough, and it just simply plugs in) and downloading the free 2015 detailed maps from the Garmin web site. This gives extremely detailed maps of North America.

I don't know specifically. It worked great for our trip through Northern Europe and the United Kingdom this summer.

I believe you can purchase the 2497LMT with lifetime maps and traffic for Europe, Andrea. I have the U.S. version and really like it. Hope it works out well for you.

I used it traveling from Germany to France just last december. Coming back to Germany i realized some major roads where outdated, it was as easy as hooking up the tomtom to my mac, create a username on the lifetime update for my unit and there, updated maps for free!!! Beware that they are quite heavy updates, so depending on your connection speed it may take a while.

Yes you can, you have to purchase the European maps, either down load or buy in a SD memory card (buy the memory card with the map in it, makes it easier when you go back to the state and use usa map

Yes, I just returned from Switzerland and Austria. Coverage of Austria is complete. Just beware of road construction. The unmarked detours of summer road and street construction cause the GPS to send you in circles!
