WARNING
Safety and Tracking Warning
The assistance feature allows you to send your location
to an emergency contact. This is a supplemental feature
and should not be relied upon as a primary method to
obtain emergency assistance. The Garmin Connect
does not contact emergency services on your behalf.
The incident detection feature is only available while you
are tracking certain outdoor activities on your Garmin
device. For more information, see the device owner's
manual.
Off-Road Navigation Warnings
If your Garmin device is able to suggest off-road routes
for various outdoor activities, such as biking, hiking, and
all-terrain vehicles, follow these guidelines to ensure safe
off-road navigation.
• Always use your best judgment and exercise common
sense when making off-road navigational decisions. The
Garmin device is designed to provide route suggestions
only. It is not a replacement for attentiveness and proper
preparation for outdoor activities. Do not follow the route
suggestions if they suggest an illegal course or would
put you in an unsafe situation.
• Always carefully compare information displayed on the
device to all available navigation sources, including
trail signs, trail conditions, weather conditions, and
®
other factors that may affect safety while navigating.
For safety, always resolve any discrepancies before
continuing navigation, and defer to posted signs and
conditions.
• Always be mindful of the effects of the environment and
the inherent risks of the activity before embarking on off-
road activities, especially the impact that weather and
weather-related trail conditions can have on the safety
of your activity. Ensure that you have the proper gear
and supplies for your activity before navigating along
unfamiliar paths and trails.
Failure to heed the following notices could result in
personal or property damage, or negatively impact the
device functionality.

material. Special handling may apply. See
.gov/hazardouswaste/perchlorate.
• Contact your local waste disposal department to dispose
of the device/batteries in accordance with applicable
local laws and regulations.
GPS Notice
The navigation device may experience degraded
performance if you use it in proximity to any device that
uses a terrestrial broadband network operating close to
the frequencies used by any Global Navigation Satellite
System (GNSS), such as the Global Positioning Service
(GPS). Use of such devices may impair reception of GNSS
signals.
