Note!
Insert or remove C-MAP cartridges ONLY through SETUP menu or when 
unit is off. All electronic navigation equipment is subject to external factors 
beyond the control of the manufacturer. Therefore such equipment must be 
regarded as an aid to navigation. The prudent navigator will, for that reason, 
never rely on a single source for position fixing and navigation.
