Important Safety and Product Information
Failure to avoid the following potentially hazardous situations could result
in death or serious injury.
Off-Road Navigation Warnings
Some Garmin recreational products are able to suggest off-road routes
for various outdoor activities, such as biking, hiking, and all-terrain
vehicles. Follow these guidelines to ensure safe off-road navigation.
• Always use your best judgment and exercise common sense when
making off-road navigational decisions. The Garmin device is
designed to provide route suggestions only. It is not a replacement
for attentiveness and proper preparation for outdoor activities. Do not
follow the route suggestions if they suggest an illegal course or
would put you in an unsafe situation.
• Always carefully compare information displayed on the device to all
available navigation sources, including trail signs, trail conditions,
weather conditions, and other factors that may affect safety while
navigating. For safety, always resolve any discrepancies before
continuing navigation, and defer to posted signs and conditions.
• Always be mindful of the effects of the environment and the inherent
risks of the activity before embarking on off-road activities, especially
the impact that weather and weather-related trail conditions can have
on the safety of your activity. Ensure that you have the proper gear
and supplies for your activity before navigating along unfamiliar paths
and trails.
