CAUTION!
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.
WARNING
For vehicular applications, it is 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.
WARNING
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 operating the vehicle and road conditions while the
vehicle is in motion could result in an accident or collision with property damage and personal injury.
