Installing and Removing the Data Card

The GPSMAP 3205 uses optional preprogrammed Garmin marine BlueChart g2

and MapSource data cards. The data card is installed in the card slot located

on the front left of the unit. Data cards can be installed or removed at any time,

whether the unit is on or off.

To install the data card:

1. Open the data card door by sliding the door in the direction of the arrow,

and lift the door open from left to right.

2. Insert the card into the slot, with the label facing the right screen and the

handle toward you.

3. Firmly push the card into the unit. It in not necessary to force the card and

about 1/2" is still exposed when it is properly inserted. If the unit is on, a

confirmation tone sounds and a message appears on-screen noting the

card details when the card is properly installed and accepted.

4. Close the cover until it locks.

If you insert a data card and get a card format not recognized message, remove

the card and reinsert it. If the card is still not recognized, contact Garmin Product

Support or your Garmin dealer for assistance. 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.

NOTE: 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. Data cards are a Garmin proprietary device and are not exchangeable with
the SD cards used for Garmin g2 Vision mapping data.

The first time you insert a data card, the unit takes a few seconds to read the

card. After the data card is read, a summary page appears. Press ENTER to

acknowledge.
