IMPORTANT SAFETY AND PRODUCT INFORMATION
WARNING
Failure to heed the following warnings could result in an accident or collision resulting in death or
serious injury.
Battery Warnings
The device uses an internal, non-user-replaceable battery for various purposes, such as the real-time
clock.
If these guidelines are not followed, batteries may experience a shortened life span or may present a
risk of damage to the device, fire, chemical burn, electrolyte leak, and/or injury.
• Do not remove or attempt to remove the non-user-replaceable battery.
Marine Operation Warnings
•
You are responsible for the safe and prudent operation of your vessel.
This device is a tool that
will enhance your capability to operate your vessel. This device does not relieve you from the
responsibility of safely operating your vessel. Avoid navigational hazards and never leave the helm
unattended.
• Use this device only as a navigational aid. Do not attempt to use the device for any purpose requiring
precise measurement of direction, distance, location, or topography.
• Always be prepared to promptly regain control of the vessel. Use caution near hazards in the water,
such as docks, pilings and other vessels.
• If the device has navigating capabilities, when navigating, carefully compare information displayed on
the device to all available navigation sources, including information from visual sightings, local
waterway rules and restrictions, and maps. For safety, always resolve any discrepancies or
questions before continuing navigation.
FCC Warnings
Exposure to Radio Frequency Signals
–Your device is a radio transmitter and receiver. When it is on,
it receives and also sends out radio frequency (RF) signals.
Antenna Care
–Use only the supplied antenna or a recommended antenna accessory. Unauthorized
antennas, modifications, or attachments could damage the radio and may violate FCC regulations.
Warning: Do not use any radio that has a damaged antenna, because if it comes into contact with your
skin, a minor burn can result.
Electronic Devices
–Most modern electronic equipment is shielded from RF signals. However, certain
equipment may not be shielded against the RF signals from your wireless radio.
Pacemakers
–The Health Industry Manufacturers Association (HIMA) and Wireless Technology
Research recommend that a minimum separation of six inches (6”) be maintained between a handheld
wireless radio and a pacemaker to avoid potential interference with the pacemaker. Persons with
pacemakers should ALWAYS keep the radio more than six inches from their pacemaker when the radio
is turned on, should not carry the radio in a breast pocket, and should turn the radio off immediately if
you have any reason to suspect that interference is taking place.
Hearing Aids
–Some digital wireless radios may interfere with some hearing aids. In the event of such
interference, you may want to consult your hearing aid manufacturer to discuss alternatives.
Posted Facilities
–Turn your radio OFF in any facility where posted notices so require.
Vehicles
–RF signals may affect improperly installed or inadequately shielded electronic systems in
motor vehicles. Check with the manufacturer or its representative regarding your vehicle. You should
also consult the manufacturer of any equipment that has been added to your vehicle.
Commercial Aircraft
–Many commercial airlines prohibit the use of radios on board. Switch OFF your
radio before boarding an aircraft or check the airline rules.
Potentially Explosive Atmospheres
–Turn your radio OFF and do not remove your battery when you
are in any area with a potentially explosive atmosphere. Obey all signs and instructions. Sparks from
your battery in such areas could cause an explosion or fire resulting in bodily injury or even death.
NOTICE
Failure to heed the following notice could result in personal or property damage, or negatively impact
the device functionality.
Battery Notices
• Do not immerse the device or batteries in water or other liquids.
• Do not leave the device exposed to a heat source or in a high-temperature location, such as in the
sun in an unattended vehicle. To prevent the possibility of damage, remove the device from the
vehicle or store it out of direct sunlight, such as in the glove box.
• Do not operate the device outside of the temperature ranges specified in the printed manual in the
product packaging.
• When storing the device for an extended time period, store within the temperature ranges specified in
the printed manual in the product packaging.
• Contact your local waste disposal department to dispose of the device/batteries in accordance with
applicable local laws and regulations.

Radio Frequency Radiation Exposure
This device is a mobile transmitter and receiver that uses an internal antenna to send and receive low
levels of radio frequency (RF) energy for data communications. The device emits RF energy below the
published limits when operating in its maximum output power mode and when used with Garmin
authorized accessories. To comply with RF exposure compliance requirements, the device should be
installed and used with the separation distance as described in the printed manual. The device should
not be used in other configurations. This device must not be co-located or operated in conjunction with
any other transmitter or antenna.
VHF Radio Information
All users are responsible for observing the regulations of their government and the regulations of
foreign governments. Breaches of such regulations are subject to severe penalties. The transmitting
frequencies in your radio are reserved for maritime use; any frequency you use for transmission must
be specifically included on your ships license. A special license is required to operate from land; this
includes when your boat is in a trailer. The use of ATIS is prohibited outside the European inland
waterways covered by the Basel Agreement.
Licensing Requirements
Many countries and administrations require a ship radio license and require the user to be in
possession of a suitable radio operator license before transmitting equipment can be used for maritime
communication. Contact your local administration for details.
FCC Compliance
This device complies with part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following two
conditions: (1) this device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must accept any
interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation.
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device,
pursuant to part 15 of the FCC rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection
against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses, and can
radiate radio frequency energy and may cause harmful interference to radio communications if not
installed and used in accordance with the instructions. However, there is no guarantee that interference
will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or
television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is
encouraged to try to correct the interference by one of the following measures:
• Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
• Increase the separation between the equipment and the receiver.
• Connect the equipment into an outlet that is on a different circuit from the GPS device.
• Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.
This product does not contain any user-serviceable parts. Repairs should only be made by an
authorized Garmin service center. Unauthorized repairs or modifications could result in permanent
damage to the equipment, and void your warranty and your authority to operate this device under Part
15 regulations.
Innovation, Science and Economic Development Canada Compliance
This device complies with Innovation, Science and Economic Development Canada license-exempt
RSS standard(s). Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) this device may not cause
interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference, including interference that may cause
undesired operation of the device.
