Introduction > Warnings and Cautions Warnings and Cautions The GPS system is operated by the United States government which is solely responsible for its accuracy and maintenance. The system is subject to changes which could affect the accuracy and performance of all GPS equipment. Although the Garmin Rino 520/530 is a precision electronic NAVigation AID (NAVAID), any NAVAID can be misused or misinterpreted and, therefore, become unsafe. The electronic chart is an aid to navigation and is designed to facilitate the use of authorized government charts, not replace them. Only official government charts and notices to mariners contain all information needed for safe navigation-and, as always, the user is responsible for their prudent use. Use the Rino 520/530 at your own risk. To reduce the risk of unsafe operation, carefully review and understand all aspects of this Owner's Manual. When in actual use, carefully compare indications from the Rino 520/530 to all available navigation sources, including the information from other NAVAIDs, visual sightings, charts, etc. For safety, always resolve any discrepancies before continuing navigation. WARNING: The Rino 520/530 contains a lithium-ion rechargeable battery pack. The battery used in this device may present a risk of fire or chemical burn if mistreated. Do not ii disassemble, heat above 140°F (60°C), or incinerate. WARNING: If the original battery pack must be replaced, dispose of the used battery properly. Contact your local waste disposal department for information on proper disposal of lithium-ion batteries. Keep used batteries away from children. Do not disassemble or dispose of batteries in fire. 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 (as required) in product literature and copyright messages displayed to the consumer. Virtually all data sources contain inaccurate or incomplete data to some degree. This is particularly true outside the United States, where complete and accurate digital data is either not available or prohibitively expensive. CAUTION: IT IS THE USER'S RESPONSIBILITY TO USE THIS PRODUCT PRUDENTLY. THIS PRODUCT IS INTENDED TO BE USED ONLY AS A NAVIGATIONAL AID AND MUST NOT BE USED FOR ANY PURPOSE REQUIRING PRECISE MEASUREMENT OF DIRECTION, DISTANCE, LOCATION, OR TOPOGRAPHY.
