Warnings And Precautions - Garmin 3200 Application Manual

CAUTION: Use the iQue 3200 at your own risk. To reduce the risk
of unsafe operation, carefully review and understand all aspects of this
Owner' s Manual—and thoroughly practice operation using the simulator
mode prior to actual use. When in actual use, carefully compare indica-
tions from the iQue 3200 to all available navigation sources, including
the information from other NAVAIDs, visual sightings, charts, etc. For
safety, always resolve any discrepancies before continuing navigation.
CAUTION: It is the user' s responsibility to use this product pru-
dently. This product is intended to be used only as a navigational aid
and must not be used for any purpose requiring precise measurement of
direction, distance, location or topography. This product should not be
used as an aid to determine ground proximity for aircraft navigation.
CAUTION: The electronic chart is an aid to navigation and is de-
signed to facilitate the use of authorized government charts, not replace
them. Only official government charts and notices to mariners contain
all information needed for safe navigation – and, as always, the user is
responsible for their prudent use.
MAP DATA INFORMATION: One of the goals of Garmin is to
provide customers with the most complete and accurate cartography
that is available to us at a reasonable cost. We use a combination of
governmental and private data sources, which we identify as required in
product literature and copyright messages displayed to the consumer.
Virtually all data sources contain inaccurate or incomplete data to
some degree. This is particularly true outside the United States, where
complete and accurate digital data is either not available or prohibitively
expensive.

Warnings and Precautions

WARNING: The Global Positioning
System (GPS) is operated by the United States

the accuracy and performance of all GPS
equipment. Although the Garmin iQue 3200
is a precision electronic NAVigation AID
(NAVAID), any NAVAID can be misused or
misinterpreted and, therefore, become unsafe.
