Introduction
CAUTION:  Use the iQue 3200 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 simulator 
mode prior to actual use.  When in actual use, carefully compare indica-
tions from the iQue 3200 to all available navigation sources, including 
the information from other NAVAIDs, visual sightings, charts, etc.  For 
safety, always resolve any discrepancies before continuing navigation.
CAUTION:  It is the user’s responsibility to use this product pru-
dently.  This product is intended to be used only as a navigational aid 
and must not be used for any purpose requiring precise measurement of 
direction, distance, location or topography.  This product should not be 
used as an aid to determine ground proximity for aircraft navigation.  
CAUTION:  The electronic chart is an aid to navigation and is de-
signed to facilitate the use of authorized government charts, not replace 
them.  Only official government charts and notices to mariners contain 
all information needed for safe navigation – and, as always, the user is 
responsible for their prudent use.
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.
Warnings and Precautions
WARNING:  The Global Positioning 
System (GPS) 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 iQue 3200 
is a precision electronic NAVigation AID 
(NAVAID), any NAVAID can be misused or 
misinterpreted and, therefore, become unsafe.
WARNING:  This product, its packaging, 
and its components contain chemicals known 
to the State of California to cause cancer, birth 
defects, or reproductive harm.  This Notice is 
being provided in accordance with California’s 
Proposition 65.  If you have any questions
