Important Information

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 in product literature and copyright messages

displayed to the consumer. Virtually all data sources contain some inaccurate or

incomplete data. In some countries, complete and accurate map information is

either not available or is prohibitively expensive.
NOTICE REGARDING WINDSHIELD MOUNTING; SPECIAL

NOTICE TO DRIVERS IN CALIFORNIA AND MINNESOTA: State law

prohibits drivers in California and Minnesota from using suction mounts on

their windshields while operating motor vehicles. Check your state and local

laws and ordinances for similar restrictions. Other Garmin dashboard or friction

mounting options should be used. Garmin does not take any responsibility for

any fines, penalties, or damages that may be incurred as a result of disregarding

this notice or as a result of any other state or local law or ordinance relating

to use of the unit. (See California Vehicle Code Section 26708(a); Minnesota

Statutes 2005, Section 169.71.)
The California Electronic Waste Recycling Act of 2003 requires the

recycling of certain electronics. For more information on the applicability to

this product, see
