Installing & Removing G-chart Cartridges
The GARMIN GPSMAP 130 system uses G-chart offshore or inland cartography
to display digital charts on-screen. G-chart cartridges are installed in the card slot
located at the bottom right of the GPSMAP unit. G-chart cartridges may
be installed or removed at any time, whether the unit is on or off.
To install a G-chart cartridge:
1. Open the cartridge door.
2. Insert the card (label facing front and G-chart logo at top) into the slot.
3. Use your thumb to firmly push the cartridge into place (until the cartridge will not go any
further into the unit). If your GPSMAP 130 is on, a confirmation tone will sound when the
cartridge has been properly installed and accepted.
4. Close the cover.
If you insert a G-chart cartridge and get a ‘card format not recognized’ message, try
removing the card and reinserting it. If the card is still not recognized, contact the
dealer you purchased it from for assistance. G-chart cartridges are not waterproof,
should not be exposed to moisture or excessive static charges, and should be stored
in the anti-static bag supplied with the cartridge.
To remove a G-chart cartridge:
1. Open the cartridge door.
2. Grasp the card at the bottom groove and pull firmly.
3. If your GPSMAP is on, a confirmation tone will sound when the G-chart
cartridge has been removed.
