Introduction

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 rea-
sonable cost. We use a combination of governmental and
private data sources, which we identify as required in
product literature and copyright messages displayed to
the consumer. Virtually all data sources contain inaccurate
or incomplete data to some degree. This is particularly
true outside the United States, where complete and accu-
rate digital data is either not available or prohibitively
expensive.

WARNING: For use in vehicles, it is the sole responsibil-
ity of the owner/operator of the eTrex Legend

to secure

the GPS unit so that it will not interfere with the vehicle’s
operating controls, obstruct the driver’s view of driving
conditions, or cause damage or personal injury in the
event of an accident. Do not mount the eTrex Legend

over air bag panels or in the fi eld of air bag deployment.
Air bag expand with a rapid force that can propel objects
in their path toward the driver or passengers causing pos-
sible injury. Refer to air bag safety precautions contained
in the vehicle owner’s manual. Do not mount the eTrex
Legend

in a place where the driver or passengers are likely

to impact it in an accident or collision. The mounting
hardware provided by GARMIN is not warranted against
collision damage or the consequences thereof.

WARNING: When used in vehicles, it is the sole respon-
sibility of the driver of the vehicle to operate the vehicle
in a safe manner, maintain full surveillance of all driving
conditions at all times, and not become distracted by the
eTrex Legend

to the exclusion of safe operating practices.

It is unsafe to operate the controls of the eTrex Legend

while you are driving. Failure by the driver of a vehicle
equipped with an eTrex to pay full attention to operation
of the vehicle and road conditions while the vehicle is
in motion could result in an accident or collision with
property damage and personal injury.
