Specications subject to change without notice.
1. The temperature rating of the GPSMAP 96/96C may exceed
the usable range of some batteries. Some batteries can rupture
at high temperatures.
2. Subject to accuracy degradation to 100m 2DRMS under the
U.S. DoD imposed Selective Availability (SA) Program.
3. With optional Garmin GBR 21 Beacon Receiver input.
4. Alkaline batteries lose a signicant amount of their capacity
as the temperature decreases. Use Lithium batteries when
operating the GPSMAP 96/96C in below-freezing conditions.
Extensive use of screen backlighting and audible tones
signicantly reduce battery life.
