Installing and Removing Data Cards
The GPSMAP 392/398/492/498 uses optional Garmin marine
BlueChart g2 and MapSource data cards to show digital charts and
maps on-screen. Data cards are installed in the card slot located at
the bottom right of the unit. Data cards can be installed or removed
at any time, whether the unit is on or off.
To install a data card:
1. Open the card door by pressing together on the two handles
at the bottom of the door and lifting it up and open.
2. Insert the card, with the label facing front and the handle
bottom, into the slot.
3. Firmly push the card into the unit. It in not necessary to
force the card and about 1/2
"
is still exposed when it is
properly inserted. If the unit is on, a confirmation tone
sounds and a message shows on-screen noting the card
details when the card is properly installed and accepted.
4. Close the cover.
If you insert a data card and get a “card format not recognized”
message, try removing the card and reinserting it. If the card is still
not recognized, contact Garmin Support or your Garmin dealer
for assistance. Data cards are not waterproof and should not be
exposed to moisture or excessive static charges. Data cards should
be stored in the case supplied with the card.
To remove a data card:
1. Open the card door by pressing together on the two handles
at the bottom of the door and lifting it up and open.
2. Grasp the card handle at the bottom and pull down firmly.
3. If the unit is on, a confirmation tone sounds when the data
card has been removed.
The first time you insert a data card, the unit takes a few seconds to
read the card.
After the data card is read, a summary screen appears. Press

to acknowledge.
