The temperature rating for the GPSMAP 76 may exceed the usable range of some batteries. Alkaline batteries can rupture
at high temperatures. Alkaline batteries lose a signifi cant amount of their capacity as temperature decreases. Use lithium
batteries when operating the GPSMAP 76 in below-freezing conditions. Extensive use of screen backlighting will signifi cantly
reduce battery life.
