to suggest off-road routes for various outdoor
activities, such as biking, hiking, and all-terrain
vehicles. Follow these guidelines to ensure
safe off-road navigation.
• Always use your best judgment and exercise
common sense when making off-road
navigational decisions. The Garmin device is
designed to provide route suggestions only.
It is not a replacement for attentiveness and
proper preparation for outdoor activities. Do
not follow the route suggestions if they
suggest an illegal course or would put
you in an unsafe situation.
• Always carefully compare information
displayed on the device to all available
navigation sources, including trail signs,
trail conditions, weather conditions, and
other factors that may affect safety while
navigating. For safety, always resolve any
discrepancies before continuing navigation,
and defer to posted signs and conditions.
• Always be mindful of the effects of the
environment and the inherent risks of
the activity before embarking on off-road
activities, especially the impact that weather
and weather-related trail conditions can have
on the safety of your activity. Ensure that you

15
have the proper gear and supplies for your
activity before navigating along unfamiliar
paths and trails.
