BlueChart, Fishing Hot Spots, and
LakeMaster Data Cards
Preprogrammed BlueChart, Fishing HotSpots, and
LakeMaster data cards should not be used in the USB
Programmer or in a GPS unit for saving MapSource
maps—you will lose the preloaded data. Remove this
preprogrammed data card from your GPS unit before
you transfer maps. MapSource warns you if you are in
danger of erasing data. If you overwrite the preloaded
data, Garmin will not replace or recover it.
Reloading the POI Database
If your GPS unit includes a preloaded/preprogrammed
Points of Interest (POI) database, you will see a
warning about erasing this preloaded data before you
save MapSource maps. This warning does not refer to
the basemap of your unit. You can restore preloaded
data to your GPS unit by downloading it from the
Garmin Web site.
