Important Information
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 in product literature and copyright messages
displayed to the consumer. Virtually all data sources contain
some inaccurate or incomplete data. In some countries,
complete and accurate map information is either not available or
is prohibitively expensive.
NOTICE REGARDING WINDSHIELD MOUNTING;
SPECIAL NOTICE TO DRIVERS IN CALIFORNIA AND
MINNESOTA: State law prohibits drivers in California and
Minnesota from using suction mounts on their windshields
while operating motor vehicles. Check your state and local laws
and ordinances for similar restrictions. Other Garmin dashboard
or friction mounting options should be used. Garmin does not
take any responsibility for any nes, penalties, or damages that
may be incurred as a result of disregarding this notice or as a
result of any other state or local law or ordinance relating to
use of the unit. (See California Vehicle Code Section 26708(a);
Minnesota Statutes 2005, Section 169.71.)
The California Electronic Waste Recycling Act of 2003
requires the recycling of certain electronics. For more
information on the applicability to this product, see www.

Compass Page
During active navigation, the Compass page guides
you to your destination with a graphic compass display
and a bearing or course pointer.
Compass Page
The compass
ring moves to
indicate North
orientation.
Bearing or
Course pointer
It uses a graphic compass ring, a bearing or course
pointer, and digital data elds to show information,
such as current speed, distance to the next point on the
route, and estimated arrival time.
The rotating compass ring indicates the direction
you are heading. The bearing and course pointers
indicate the direction (bearing to or course of travel)
to your destination, relative to your current heading
direction. The compass ring, bearing pointer or course
pointer work independently to show your direction of
movement and the direction to your destination. You
can choose a bearing pointer or course pointer for
guidance.
Calibrating the Electronic Compass
When you rst use the Colorado or after you install
new batteries, you have to calibrate the electronic
compass outdoors. The accuracy of the electronic
compass is adversely affected if the unit is not held
level or you are near objects that generate magnetic
elds, such as cars or buildings.
To calibrate the electronic compass:
1. From the Compass page, select Options >
Calibrate Compass.
2. Press Enter to Start, and follow on-screen
directions for holding and turning the unit.

The Garmin Colorado has no user-serviceable parts. Should you
ever encounter a problem with your unit, please take it to an
authorized Garmin dealer for repairs.
The Colorado is fastened shut with screws. Any attempt to open
the case to change or modify the unit in any way will void your
warranty and may result in permanent damage to the equipment.
