Important Information Concerning
Battery Usage
Garmin recommends the use of premium batteries
in the Colorado for optimal performance and
maximum battery life. Premium alkaline cells,
NiMH rechargeable cells less than one-year old with
a capacity greater than or equal to 2500 mAh, and
Lithium cells provide the best performance. Certain
settings on the Colorado can also shorten battery life.
Heavy use of the backlight, 3D view mode, and Track
Up mode will diminish battery life.
