WARNING:
 For use in vehicles, it is the sole responsibility of the owner/operator of a vehicle with the i5 installed to place 
and secure the device so it will not interfere with the vehicle operating controls and safety devices, obstruct the driver’s 
view of driving conditions, or cause personal injury in the event of an accident.
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. Other Garmin dashboard or 
friction mounting options should be used. Garmin does not take any responsibility for any fines, penalties, or damages that 
may be incurred as a result of disregarding this notice. (See California Vehicle Code Section 26708(a); Minnesota Statutes 
2005, Section 169.71)
Keep batteries installed in your i5 so it can find satellites quickly.  
Do not mix different types of batteries or old and new batteries.
