• The maximum operating depth (MOD) should not be exceeded. Disregarding the alarm may result in serious injury or death. • Traveling to a higher elevation, including air travel, can temporarily cause a change in the equilibrium of dissolved nitrogen in the body. Always acclimatize to new altitudes before and after diving, because failure to do so may result in personal injury or death. Marine Warnings If your device provides tide information, this feature is for informational purposes only. It is the user's responsibility to heed all posted tide or water related guidance, to remain aware of your surroundings, and to use safe judgment around the water at all times. Failure to heed this warning could result in property damage, serious personal injury, or death. If your device includes the anchor feature, you should use it as a tool for situational awareness only, as it may not prevent groundings or collisions in all circumstances. You are responsible for safe and prudent operation of your vessel, for remaining aware of your surroundings, and for using safe judgment on the water at all times. Failure to heed this warning could result in property damage, serious personal injury, or death. Applied Ballistics® Warnings If your device includes the Applied Ballistics feature, it is intended to provide accurate elevation and windage solutions based on gun and bullet profiles and measurements of current conditions only. Depending on your environment, conditions may change rapidly. Changes in environmental conditions, like wind gusts or downrange winds, may have an effect on the accuracy of your shot. Elevation and windage solutions are suggestions only based upon your input into the feature. Take readings often and carefully, and allow the readings to stabilize after significant changes in environmental conditions. Always allow a margin of safety for changing conditions and reading errors. Always understand your target and what lies beyond your target before taking a shot. Failure to account for your shooting environment could cause property damage, injury, or death. Battery Warnings A lithium-ion battery is used in this device. If these guidelines are not followed, batteries may experience a shortened life span or may present a risk of damage to the device, fire, chemical burn, electrolyte leak, and/or injury. • Do not expose the device or batteries to fire, explosion, or other hazard. • Do not disassemble, modify, remanufacture, puncture, or damage the device or batteries. • Do not remove or attempt to remove the non-user-replaceable battery. Device Warnings • To avoid possible device damage, do not leave the device exposed to a heat source or in a high-temperature location, such as in the sun in an unattended vehicle. • Do not operate or store the device for an extended time period outside of the applicable temperature range listed in the printed manual in the product packaging. • Do not use a power cable, data cable, and/or power adapter that is not supplied by Garmin® or is not properly certified. 4 Installation Instructions
