IMPORTANT
SAFETY AND
PRODUCT
INFORMATION
WARNING
Failure to heed the following warnings could result in an
accident or collision resulting in death or serious injury.
Marine Operation Warnings
You are responsible for the safe and prudent operation
of your vessel.
This device does not relieve you
from the responsibility of safely operating your vessel.
Avoid navigational hazards and never leave the helm
unattended.
• Always be prepared to promptly regain control of the
vessel. Use caution near hazards in the water, such as
docks, pilings and other vessels.
• If the device provides depth data, it should not be
used as the primary means of preventing grounding
or collision. Supplement depth data readings with
information from applicable paper charts and visual
indicators. Always operate the vessel at slow speeds if
you suspect shallow water or submerged objects. Failure
to heed this warning could lead to vessel damage or
personal injury.
Device Warnings
• Do not immerse the device or batteries in water or other
liquids.
• Do not leave the device exposed to a heat source or in
a high-temperature location, such as in the sun in an
unattended vessel. To prevent the possibility of damage,
remove the device from the vessel or store it out of
direct sunlight.
• Do not operate the device outside of the temperature
ranges specified in the printed manual in the product
packaging.
• When storing the device for an extended time period,
store within the temperature ranges specified in the
printed manual in the product packaging.
Hearing Damage Warning
Listening to the stereo at high volume can cause damage
to your hearing.
NOTICE
Failure to heed the following notices could result in
personal or property damage, or negatively impact the
device functionality.
Battery Notice
Contact your local waste disposal department to dispose
of the device/batteries in accordance with applicable local
laws and regulations.
GPS Notice
The navigation device may experience degraded
performance if you use it in proximity to any device that
uses a terrestrial broadband network operating close to
the frequencies used by any Global Navigation Satellite
System (GNSS), such as the Global Positioning Service
(GPS). Use of such devices may impair reception of GNSS
signals.
