The temperature rating for the GPS 76 may exceed the usable range of some batteries. Alkaline batteries can rupture at high
temperatures. Alkaline batteries lose a signifi cant amount of their capacity as temperature decreases. Use lithium batteries when
operating the GPS 76 in below-freezing conditions. Extensive use of screen backlighting will signifi cantly reduce battery life.
