INTRODUCTION

1.1

The GPS system is operated by the government of the United States, which is solely responsible for its accuracy and

maintenance. Although the GPS 16/17 is a precision electronic NAVigation AID (NAVAID), any NAVAID can be

misused or misinterpreted, and therefore become unsafe. Use these products at your own risk. To reduce the risk,

carefully review and understand all aspects of these Technical Specifications before using the GPS 16/17. When in

actual use, carefully compare indications from the GPS to all available navigation sources including the information

from other NAVAIDs, visual sightings, charts, etc. For safety, always resolve any discrepancies before continuing

navigation.

1.2

The GPS 16/17 complies with Part 15 of the FCC interference limits for Class B digital devices FOR HOME OR

OFFICE USE. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a

residential installation, and are more stringent than "outdoor" requirements.

Operation of this device is subject to the following conditions: (1) This device may not cause harmful interference,

and (2) this device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation.

This equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance

with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that

interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or

television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to

correct the interference by one or more of the following measures:

•

Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.

•

Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.

•

Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected.

•

Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.

The GPS 16/17 does not contain any user-serviceable parts. Unauthorized repairs or modifications could result in

permanent damage to the equipment, and void your warranty and your authority to operate this device under Part 15

regulations.
