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 Rino 130 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 offi cial 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 130 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 Demo mode prior to actual use. When
in actual use, carefully compare indications from the Rino
130 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 accurate
cartography that is available to
us at a reasonable 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 accurate digital
data is either not available or
prohibitively expensive.
