Garmin GPS II Plus User Manual
Page 4
The Global Positioning System (GPS) is operated by the government of the United States, which is
solely responsible for its accuracy and maintenance. The system is subject to changes which could affect
the accuracy and performance of all GPS equipment. Although the GPS II
+
is a precision electronic
NAVigation AID (NAVAID), any NAVAID can be misused or misinterpreted and, therefore, become unsafe.
For vehicular applications, it’s the sole responsibility of the owner/operator of the GPS II
+
to secure the
GPS unit so that it will not cause damage or personal injury in the event of an accident. Do not mount the
GPS II
+
over airbag panels or in a place where the driver or passengers are likely to have an impact with it
in an accident or collision. The mounting hardware provided by GARMIN is not warranted against collision
damage or the consequences thereof.
For vehicular operations, it is the sole responsibility of the operator of the vehicle to operate his or her
vehicle in a safe manner, maintain full surveillance of all driving conditions at all times, and never become
distracted by the GPS II
+
to the exclusion of safe operating practices. It is unsafe to operate the GPS II
+
while
you are driving. Failure by the operator of a vehicle equipped with a GPS II
+
to pay full attention to operat-
ing the vehicle and road conditions while the vehicle is in motion could result in an accident or collision with
property damage and personal injury.
