2 GPSMAP 620 Owner’s Manual
Getting Started
CautioN: The ball-socket adapter on the GPSMAP 620 is not
compatible with Garmin automotive mounts other than the included
mount. Do not mount the device on a windshield.
Using the Mounting Bracket
CautioN:
Do not use the automotive mounting bracket in your
boat. The power connector and speaker assembly are not water
resistant, and therefore unsuitable for marine use. Additionally, do
not use the automotive-mount base in your boat. The automotive-
mount base does not connect to the dashboard using mounting
hardware, and therefore is not stable in marine conditions.
To install the marine mounting bracket in your boat, see the
GPSMAP 620/640 Marine Mount Installation Instructions .
To install the automotive mounting bracket in your car:
1. Place the automotive-mount base on your dash, and press
down on each of the four sides. The base bends and conforms
to your dashboard.
2. Snap the mounting bracket onto the automotive-mount arm.
3. Plug the vehicle power cable into a power outlet in your vehicle.
tip: If the bottom surface of the automotive-mount slides on the
dash due to dust and dirt build-up, wipe it clean using a wet cloth.
To place the GPSMAP 620 in
the mounting bracket:
1. Flip up the locking tab on top of
the mounting bracket.
2. Fit the bottom of the device into
the cradle.
3. Tilt the device back until it
stops.
4. Flip down the locking tab to
hold the device in the mounting
bracket.
To remove the GPSMAP 620 from the mounting bracket:
1. Flip up the locking tab on top of the mounting bracket.
2. Tilt the device forward, and lift it out of the mounting bracket.
