Appendix A Vehicle Installation WARNING: For use in vehicles, it is the sole responsibility of the owner/operator to place and secure the GPS unit so that is will not interfere with the vehicle operating controls and safety devices, obstruct the driver's view of driving conditions, or cause damage or personal injury in the event of an accident. Do not place this mounting bracket over airbag panels or in the field of airbag deployment.

The mounting hardware provided by Garmin is not warranted against collision damage or the consequences thereof. NOTE: An optional external remote antenna (Garmin GA26C) may be needed when operating the unit in a vehicle with a coated windshield or an in-screen heating system that can block the GPS signals. 51

controls and safety devices, obstruct the driver’s view of
driving conditions, or cause damage or personal injury
in the event of an accident. Do not place this mounting
bracket over airbag panels or in the field of airbag
deployment. Airbags expand with a rapid fire force
that can propel objects in their path towards the vehicle

a location where the GPS unit’s antenna has a relatively unobstructed view of the sky.
NOTE:
An optional external remote antenna (Garmin

vehicle with a coated windshield or an in-screen heating
system that can block the GPS signals.
