INTRODUCTION
Preface
Congratulations on choosing one of the most advanced marine navigation sys-
tems available! The GARMIN GPSMAP 180 combines the proven performance of
GARMIN GPS with powerful Micro G-Chart electronic charting for detailed car-
tography and plotting wherever you cruise.
To get the most out of your new navigation system, take the time to go through
this operators manual and learn the operating procedures for your unit. This
manual is broken down into two sections for your convenience.
Getting Started introduces you to the GPSMAP 180 and provides a tutorial that
will help you become more familiar with the unit. This part will provide you with
a basic working knowledge necessary to use the unit to its fullest
potential.
The Reference portion is divided into sections that provide detailed instructions
on the advanced features and operations of the GPSMAP 180. This allows you to
concentrate on a specific topic quickly, without reading through entire portions of
text that you may not need.
An Appendix section concludes the manual with specific information needed
for custom setup, trouble shooting, and indexing.
