®
Product Support, or seek the advice of a professional installer.
The GWS 10 communicates with NMEA 2000
®
-compatible chartplotters and displays. Refer to

See the
Important Safety and Product Information
guide in the product box for product warnings and other important information.
Cautions
Always wear safety goggles, ear protection, and a dust mask when drilling, cutting, or sanding.
When drilling or cutting, always check the opposite side of the surface. Be aware of fuel tanks, electrical cables, and hydraulic hoses.
Use caution when working from heights.
Connect the gray in-line lightning arrestor to help prevent lightning-strike related damage to the NMEA 2000 network. The lightning
arrestor is designed to help prevent damage due to nearby lightning strikes, but it is not able to protect against direct lightning strikes.
Garmin is not responsible for lightning-strike related damage.
