Garmin GPSMAP 5000 - Manual (Page 2)

Introduction
The 4000/5000 Series RF Remote is for use with the following Garmin chartplotters:
GPSMAP 4008 GPSMAP 5008
GPSMAP 4012 GPSMAP 5012
GPSMAP 4208 GPSMAP 5208
GPSMAP 4212 GPSMAP 5212
The remote is used to control the 4000/5000 screens. It can be used up to 10 meters (32 feet) from the
chartplotter and does not need to be pointed directly at your chartplotter.
The remote operates on two AAA batteries (not included). To replace the batteries, use a small Phillips
screwdriver to open the access cover on the rear panel. Use alkaline batteries for best results.
Ensure your chartplotter has the current software, available at
www.garmin.com .
