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.

responsibility for any fines, 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
