• The location must allow room for the routing and connection of all cables.
Antenna Mounting and EME Exposure
WARNING
Radio operators with cardiac pacemakers, life-support machines, or electrical
medical equipment should not be exposed to excessive radio-frequency (RF)
fields, because the RF field may interfere with the function of their medical
equipment.
CAUTION
This device generates and radiates radio frequency (RF) electromagnetic
energy (EME). Failure to observe these guidelines may expose people to RF
radiation absorption exceeding the maximum permissible exposure (MPE).
Garmin declares a MPE radius of m (9797 in.) for this system, which was
determined using 25 W output to an omni-directional, 6 dBi gain antenna. The
antenna should be installed to maintain a distance of m ( in.) between
the antenna and all people.
Bail Mounting the Device
NOTICE
If you are mounting the bracket on fiberglass with screws, it is recommended
to use a countersink bit to drill a clearance counterbore through only the top

Switching Between 1 W and 25 W Transmitting Modes
You can control the transmitting power of the radio. LO (1 W) is used for local
transmissions, and HI (25 W) is used for distance and distress transmissions.
When two signals broadcast on the same frequency, a VHF radio receives only
the stronger of the two signals. You should transmit calls other than distress calls
using the lowest power setting that allows you to communicate, to reduce the
possibility that your transmissions interfere with the transmissions of others.
In the USA frequency band, transmissions on channels 13 and 67 must be low
(1 W) by default.
1Select HI/LO.
2Select 1W or 25W.
Digital Selective Calling
Digital Selective Calling
NOTE: Before you can use DSC capabilities, you must enter a Mobile Marine
Safety Identity (MMSI) number. An MMSI number identifies each DSC radio, like
a telephone number.
Digital Selective Calling (DSC) is a key component of the Global Maritime
Distress and Safety System (GMDSS). DSC enables VHF radios to place and
receive digital calls directly with other vessels and shore stations, including the
USA and Canadian Coast Guards. Your radio includes full Class-D DSC
capabilities.
For more information about DSC on your device, including using DSC for distress
calls, see the online owner's manual (page 7).
NOTE: The device disables DSC automatically when you turn on ATIS
(page 6).
Entering Your MMSI Number
NOTICE
You can enter your MMSI number only once. If you must change your MMSI
number after entering it, you must take your radio to your Garmin® dealer for

Automatic Transmitter Identification System
Automatic Transmitter Identification System (ATIS) is a vessel identification
system used on certain inland waterways in some European countries. See your
Garmin dealer to program your VHF radio if you plan to use your radio on
waterways that are within the bounds of the Regional Arrangement Concerning
the Radiotelephone Service on Inland Waterways (the Basel Agreement). ATIS is
prohibited outside the European inland waterways that are covered by the Basel
Agreement.
When you enable ATIS, your radio sends a data signal identifying your station at
the end of every transmission. Data identifying your position is not sent, but your
position is calculated through the method of triangulation by coastal stations that
receive your transmissions.
To enable ATIS, you must enter your ATIS identification number (page 6), and
turn on ATIS. See your Garmin dealer to determine your ATIS identification
number and to learn about ATIS requirements for your region.
Your radio disables these functions when you enable ATIS.
