CAUTION: The Global Positioning System (GPS) is operated by the government of
the United States, which is solely responsible for its accuracy and maintenance. The sys-
tem is subject to changes which could affect the accuracy and performance of all GPS
equipment. Although the GPSMAP is a precision electronic NAVigation AID (NAVAID),
any NAVAID can be misused or misinterpreted and, therefore, become unsafe.
Use the GPSMAP at your own risk. To reduce the risk of unsafe operation, carefully
review and understand all aspects of this Owner’s Manual and thoroughly practice
operation using the simulator mode prior to actual use. When in actual use, carefully
compare indications from the GPSMAP to all available navigation sources including
the information from other NAVAIDs, visual sightings, charts, etc. For safety, always
resolve any discrepancies before continuing navigation.
WARNING: The electronic chart is an aid to navigation designed to facilitate the
use of authorized government charts, not to replace them. Only official government
charts and notices to mariners contain all information needed for the safety of naviga-
tion, and as always, the user is responsible for their prudent use.
CAUTION: The GPSMAP does not contain any user-serviceable parts. Repairs
should only be made by an authorized GARMIN service center. Unauthorized repairs
or modifications could void your warranty and your authority to operate this device
under Part 15 FCC regulations.
