Important Safety Information
WARNING
See the Important Safety and Product Information guide in the product box for product warnings and other important information.
When connecting the power cable, do not remove the in-line fuse holder. To prevent the possibility of injury or product damage caused by fire or overheating, the appropriate fuse must be in place as indicated in the product specifications. In addition, connecting the power cable without the appropriate fuse in place will void the product warranty.
CAUTION
Always wear safety goggles, ear protection, and a dust mask when drilling, cutting, or sanding.
NOTICE
When drilling or cutting, always check what is on the opposite side of the surface.

Mounting Considerations
NOTICE
This device should be mounted in a location that is not exposed to extreme temperatures or conditions. The temperature range for this device is listed in the product specifications. Extended exposure to temperatures exceeding the specified temperature range, in storage or operating conditions, may cause device failure. Extreme-temperature-induced damage and related consequences are not covered by the warranty.
Using the included hardware and template, you can mount the device using one of two methods. You can use the included bracket and hardware to bail mount the device, or you can use the included template and hardware to flush mount the device in
the dashboard. If you want to mount the device using an alternative method where it appears flat with the front of the dashboard, you must purchase a flat-mount kit (sold separately, with professional installation recommended) from your Garmin® dealer.
When selecting a mounting location, observe these considerations.
NOTE: Not all mounting methods are available for all device models. See the specific mounting-type section for more details about your model.
•The location should provide optimal viewing as you operate your boat.
•The location should allow for easy access to all device interfaces, such as the keypad, touchscreen, and card reader, if applicable.
•The location must be strong enough to support the weight of the device and protect it from excessive vibration or shock.
•To avoid interference with a magnetic compass, the device should not be installed closer to a compass than the compass-safe distance value listed in the product specifications.
•The location must allow room for the routing and connection of all cables.
Bail Mounting a Five-Inch Device
NOTICE
If you are mounting the bracket on fiberglass with screws, it is recommended to use a countersink bit to drill a clearance counterbore through only the top gel-coat layer. This will help to avoid any cracking in the gel-coat layer when the screws are tightened.
Stainless-steel screws may bind when screwed into fiberglass and overtightened. Garmin recommends applying an anti-seize lubricant to the screws before installing them.
You can use the included bracket to bail mount the device on a flat surface. The five-inch models have the option of installing a swivel at the base of the bail-mount bracket (Bail Mounting a Five-Inch Device with a Swivel Base).
1 Using the bail-mount bracket as a template, mark the pilot
À
holes .
Á
2 Using a 1/8in. (3 mm) drill bit, drill the pilot holes.
3 Using the included screws , secure the bail-mount bracket
Â
to the mounting surface.
4 Install the bail-mount knobs on the sides of the device.
Ã
5Place the device in the bail-mount bracket and tighten the bail-mount knobs.

Bail Mounting a Five-Inch Device with a Swivel Base
NOTICE
Only pan-head machine bolts or self-tapping screws should be used to secure the swivel base. If you use screws with countersunk heads, you may damage the mounting bracket.
The five-inch devices have the option of adding a swivel to the bail mount. The swivel base allows for the routing of cables through the mounting surface (optional).
1 Using the swivel base as a template , mark three pilot
À
holes .
Á
2If you are routing the cables through the mounting surface, mark the location directly in the middle of the three pilot holes (optional).
3 Using a 1/8 in. (3 mm) drill bit, drill the three pilot holes.
4If you are routing the cables through the mounting surface, drill a 1 in. (25.4 mm) hole in the middle of the three pilot holes (optional).
5If you are routing the cables through the mounting surface, route them through the hole you drilled in step 5, and extend enough slack so that the connectors will reach the device after it is mounted (optional).
6 |
If you are routing the cables through the mounting surface, |
|
route them through the holes  in the back of the swivel- |
|
mount bracket (optional). |
7 |
Using the included screws Ã, secure the swivel base to the |
|
mounting surface. |
8 |
Place the bail-mount bracket Ä on the swivel base, and |
|
secure it using the swivel-mount knob Å. |
9 |
Install the bail-mount knobs Æ on the sides of the device. |
10Place the device in the bail mount bracket and tighten the bail-mount knobs.
11If you routed the cables through the mounting surface, apply marine sealant over the holes in the back of the swivel mount bracket (optional).
Bail Mounting a Seven-Inch Device
NOTICE
If you are mounting the bracket on fiberglass with screws, it is recommended to use a countersink bit to drill a clearance counterbore through only the top gel-coat layer. This will help to avoid any cracking in the gel-coat layer when the screws are tightened.
Stainless-steel screws may bind when screwed into fiberglass and overtightened. Garmin recommends applying an anti-seize lubricant to the screws before installing them.
You can use the included bracket to bail mount the device on a flat surface. The bail-mount bracket for the seven-inch devices allows for the routing of cables through the mounting surface (optional).
1Select the mounting hardware appropriate for your mounting surface and for the bail-mount bracket.
2 Using the bail-mount bracket as a template, mark the pilot
À
holes .
Á
3If you are routing the cables through the mounting surface, mark a location in the middle of the four pilot holes (optional).
4Using a drill bit appropriate for the mounting hardware, drill the four pilot holes.
5If you are routing the cables through the mounting surface, drill a 1¼ in. (32 mm) hole in the middle of the four pilot holes (optional).
6If you are routing the cables through the mounting surface, route them through the hole you drilled in step 5, and extend enough slack so that the connectors will reach the device after it is mounted (optional).
7If you are routing the cables through the mounting surface, route them through the holes in the back of the bail-mount bracket (optional).
