Warnings and Precautions
The GPS system is operated by the United States
government, 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 GARMIN GPSMAP 182C is
a precision electronic NAVigation AID (NAVAID), any
NAVAID can be misused or misinterpreted and, therefore,
become unsafe.
The electronic chart is an aid to navigation and is
designed to facilitate the use of authorized government
charts, not replace them. Only official government charts
and notices to mariners contain all information needed for
safe navigation –and, as always, the user is responsible
for their prudent use.
Use the Rino 120 at your own risk. To reduce the risk
of unsafe operation, carefully review and understand all
aspects of this Owner’s Manual—and thoroughly practice
operation using the simulator mode prior to actual use.
When in actual use, carefully compare indications from
the Rino 120 to all available navigation sources, including
the information from other NAVAIDs, visual sightings,
charts, etc. For safety, always resolve any discrepancies
before continuing navigation.
MAP DATA INFORMATION:
One of the goals of GARMIN
is to provide customers with
the most complete and accu-
rate cartography that is avail-
able to us at a reasonable
cost. We use a combination
of governmental and private
data sources, which we iden-
tify (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
accurate digital data is either
not available or prohibitively
expensive.
