situations could result in an accident or collision
resulting in death or serious injury.

If your unit contains or accepts street map
products, follow these guidelines as well to ensure
safe navigating:

or transmission levers. Do not place in front of or
above any airbag. (See diagram.)

Do not mount

where driver’s

fi eld of vision

is blocked.

Do not place

unsecured on

the vehicle
dashboard.

displayed on the unit to all available navigation
sources, including information from street signs,

visual sightings, and maps. For safety, always
resolve any discrepancies or questions before
continuing navigation and defer to posted road signs.

• Always operate the vehicle in a safe manner.

Do not become distracted by the unit while
navigating, and always be fully aware of all
driving conditions. Minimize the amount of time

spent viewing the unit’s screen while navigating
and use voice prompts when possible. Do not input
destinations, change settings, or access any functions
requiring prolonged use of the unit’s controls while
navigating. Stop in a safe and legal manner before
attempting such operations.

Important Information

MAP DATA INFORMATION: One of the goals
of Garmin is to provide customers with the most
complete and accurate cartography that is available
to us at a reasonable cost. We use a combination of
governmental and private data sources, which we
identify in product literature and copyright messages
displayed to the consumer. Virtually all data sources
contain some inaccurate or incomplete data. In some
countries, complete and accurate map information is
either not available or is prohibitively expensive.

The California Electronic Waste Recycling Act of
2003 requires the recycling of certain electronics. For
more information on the applicability to this product,
see www.erecycle.org.

NOTICE REGARDING WINDSHIELD
MOUNTING; SPECIAL NOTICE TO DRIVERS
IN CALIFORNIA AND MINNESOTA: State law

prohibits drivers in California and Minnesota from
using suction mounts on their windshields while
operating motor vehicles. Check your state and local
laws and ordinances for similar restrictions. Other
Garmin dashboard or friction mounting options should
be used. Garmin does not take any responsibility for

any nes, penalties, or damages that may be incurred

as a result of disregarding this notice or as a result of
any other state or local law or ordinance relating to
use of the unit. (See California Vehicle Code Section
26708(a); Minnesota Statutes 2005, Section 169.71.)
