INTRODUCTION > CAUTION
Failure to avoid the following potentially hazardous
situations may result in injury or property damage.
Use the eTrex Vista Cx only as a navigational aid. Do not
attempt to use the eTrex Vista Cx for any purpose requiring
precise measurement of direction, distance, location, or
topography. This product should not be used to determine
ground proximity for aircraft navigation.
The Global Positioning System (GPS) is operated by the
United States government, which is solely responsible for
its accuracy and maintenance. The government’s system
is subject to changes which could affect the accuracy and
performance of all GPS equipment, including the eTrex
Vista Cx. Although the eTrex Vista Cx is a precision
navigation device, any navigation device can be misused or
misinterpreted and, therefore, become unsafe.
Map Data Information: One of the goals of Garmin is to provide customers with the most complete and accurate cartography
that is available to us at a reasonable cost. We use a combination of governmental and private data sources, which we identify in
product literature and copyright messages displayed to the consumer. Virtually all data sources contain inaccurate or incomplete
data to some extent. This is particularly true outside the United States, where complete and accurate digital data is either not
available or prohibitively expensive.
