Installing and Removing Data Cards

The GPSMAP 276C uses an optional Garmin data card to display
digital charts and maps or save user data. Install the data card in the
card slot located on the bottom of the unit. Install or remove the data
card at any time, whether the unit is on or off.
You can load a variety of information on your data card, such as
BlueChart and MapSource detailed maps, and waypoint, route, and
track information saved in a MapSource program. You can also buy
pre-programmed cards to use with your GPSMAP 276C.
Data cards are not waterproof, should not be exposed to moisture or
excessive static charges, and should be stored in the case supplied
with the card.
