Aera 500 road maps updatable?

I have a Garmin Aera 500, which has given excellent service for 4 years now. I update the flying map database annually. I have yet to update the obstacles database but I am considering doing so although I suspect that all of the tall man made things that might cause warnings to sound/flash up will be depicted on the map graphics so I can see to avoid them anyway.

I have not found a way to update the road maps. Does anyone know if it is possible to do so? I would talk to Garmin Aviation but it is one of those numbers that rip you off to call and, if their Motorist's GPS helpline is anything to go by, they always have a long wait in their queuing system.
