PREFACE
GARMIN thanks you for selecting our high performance, full featured
Personal Navigator
TM
. The GPS 50 represents our continued commitment to
provide you with a portable navigation unit that is versatile, extremely
accurate, and easy to use. We are confident you will enjoy using your unit
for many years to come.
The GPS 50's rugged construction and quality components offer the reliability
demanded by the harshest operating environments. It may be used in marine
and land vehicles, as well as by hunters, hikers, and military forces. The unit
may be operated portably using its own battery pack, or it may use a 5-40 volt
DC external power source for fixed mounted applications. You can even use
a 115- or 230-volt battery charger for planning trips at home.
This manual and accompanying quick reference card provide complete
information on safely operating the GPS 50 to its full potential. Two exciting
practice voyages have been planned for you to practice your navigation skills
using the built-in simulator. Afterwards, try a trip of your own to realize the
value of the GPS 50 as your Personal Navigator
