2.14 Inserting and Removing the CompactFlash Card
CAUTION: Card Installation
When installing CF cards ensure that you are inserting the card
with the proper orientation. DO NOT try to force the card into
position, as this may result in irreparable damage to the card.
CAUTION: Saving Data to the Card
Do not save data (waypoints, etc.) to a Navionics Chart Card as the
charts may be overwritten. When archiving use a separate
SanDisk CompactFlash card.
If power is lost, or if you pull the chart card from the reader before
the save has completed, the card may become corrupted.
CAUTION: Card Removal
DO NOT use a metallic instrument such as a screwdriver or pliers to
help you remove a CF card, as doing this can cause irreparable
damage.
CAUTION: Card Writing
CF cards can be damaged if they are removed from the unit during
either a read or write operation. The unit is continually reading
the card. It is therefore essential that before removing the card
you follow the correct procedure for stopping read generation.
