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. 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.erecycle.org.NOTICE REGARDING WINDSHIELD MOUNTING LEGAL RESTRICTIONS: Before using the suction cup mount on your windshield, check the state and local laws and ordinances where you drive. Some state laws prohibit drivers from using suction mounts on their windshields while operating motor vehicles. Other state laws allow the suction mount to be located only in specic locations on the windshield. Many other states have enacted restrictions against placing “non-transparent material” on the windshield or placing objects on the windshield in locations that obstruct the driver’s vision. IT IS THE USER’S RESPONSIBILITY TO USE THE GARMIN DEVICE AND MOUNTING OPTIONS IN SUCH A MANNER THAT THE USER IS IN COMPLIANCE WITH ALL APPLICABLE LAWS AND ORDINANCES.
