Magellan NAV 5000 User Manual page 4

A measure of knowledge by the user is required for proper and safe
use of the Magellan GPS NAV 5000
WARRANTY COMPLETELY.
This product is an excellent navigation aid, but it does not replace the
need for careful orienteering and good judgement. Never rely solely
on one device for navigating.
The Global Positioning System (GPS) is operated by the U.S. Govern-
ment, which is solely responsible for the accuracy and the mainte-
nance of GPS. Certain conditions can make the system less accurate,
such as changes in the orbit or health of a satellite.
Accuracy can also be affected by poor satellite geometry. WHEN THE
ACCURACY WARNING APPEARS ON THE SCREEN, USE THIS
DATA WITH EXTREME CAUTION.
THE GLOBAL POSITIONING SYSTEM IS STILL DEVELOPMENTAL.
The government can make changes to the system which could affect
the performance of GPS receivers. Such a change could require a
modification to your NAV 5000. lf you have returned the Registra-
tion/Warranty card to Magellan, you will have the opportunity to
upgrade your unit and/or software.
