We'd like to buy it for Europe (continental) and wondering whether there are any incompatibilities on its usage.

I am uncertain about whether the plug - 3 prong-would work with an adapter. It operates on 120 volts, which may be different from EU current. It has both am & fm channels.

I wouldn't think it would be a problem provided you have a converter to plug into when you charge the batteries.

It will take the same SIM cards that any unlocked phone that supports all GSM bands can take. So, as Europe is a GSM area (can't vouch for all Eastern European countries - you have to check) you won't have a problem. Note that it needs the "microSIM" version of SIM cards (all carriers should be able to provide it).

I see no reason why you shouldn't be able to buy it and take it to France, although you may have to pay a tariff for bringing it in. You will still need the adapter.

I have used it in the US, Europe, Amsterdam, Scotland & Ireland. Don't know about the rest.

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 do not know but I would doubt it as the EU uses a different current system, different plugs, etc. I am guessing that the company makes a model for use in the EU.

This GPS does not have maps and does convert to KM. So yes it will work just as well in Europe as in the US.

It's been a few years since we used it; I don't recall any difficulties. We went in Ireland, and purchased the converter recommended for that country. The three previous answers sound more knowledgeable than mine.

It should work in both US and Europe. I haven't tried in Europe, but most places can handle both.

yes, i bought it in usa and use it in germany with a different provider. Everything works great.

Unless Europe has a different format on the CD's, I don't see any reason why it wouldn't work.

It comes equipped with a European electrical plug with an adapter for use in the US, so you should be able to use wherever European plugs are commonly used.

It is approved for use in the US and Canada. My husband points out that it wouldn't be difficult to modify to make it workable, but as-is, it is not usable in the UK.

I'm in Europe with one so I'm going to say yes, but mine was bought here so if I were you I'd ping Line6 a message to double check.

On the box it indicates that it is compatible with the electrical systems in the EU and Great Britain. I think it must be available with different prongs for different locations.

The version I purchased is the unlocked version so it should be ok to operate anywhere in the world.

For sure its going to work for you over there, but if you are buying it to use in USA it's not a good idea.
