GARMIN 04432 GPS Position Sensor
WARNING
Failure to heed the following warnings could result in an accident or a
medical event resulting in death or serious injury.
Battery Warnings
If your device is rechargeable, it uses a lithium-ion battery. If your device
is not rechargeable, it uses a coin cell battery. Coin cell batteries are used
in the accessory. If these guidelines are not followed, batteries may
experience a shortened life span or may present a risk of damage to the
device, fire, chemical burn, electrolyte leak, and/or injury.
- Do not expose the device or batteries to fire, explosion, or other hazard.
- BATTERIES ARE HAZARDOUS AND MUST BE KEPT AWAY FROM CHILDREN.
- NEVER PUT NEW OR USED BATTERIES IN THE MOUTH OR IN ANY PART OF THE BODY.
- Severe or fatal injuries can occur within 2 hours if swallowed or placed inside the body. If this occurs or is suspected, seek medical attention immediately.
- Do not disassemble, modify, remanufacture, puncture, or damage the device or batteries.
- Do not remove or attempt to remove the non-user-replaceable battery.
Device Warnings
- To avoid possible device damage, do not leave the device exposed to a heat source or in a high-temperature location, such as in the sun in an unattended vehicle.
- Do not operate or store the device for an extended time period outside of the applicable temperature range listed in the printed manual in the product packaging.
- Do not use a power cable, data cable, and/or power adapter that is not supplied by Garmin® or is not properly certified.
Health Warnings
- If you have a pacemaker or other internal electronic device, consult your physician before using a heart rate monitor.
- The optical wrist heart rate monitor and pulse oximeter emit lights and flash occasionally. Consult your physician if you have epilepsy or are sensitive to bright or flashing lights.
- Always consult your physician before beginning or modifying any exercise program.
- The device, accessories, heart rate monitor, pulse oximeter, and related data are intended to be used only for recreational purposes, not medical purposes, and are not intended to diagnose, monitor, treat, cure, or prevent any disease or condition.
- The heart rate and blood oxygen saturation readings are for reference only, and no responsibility is accepted for the consequences of any erroneous readings.
- While the optical wrist heart rate monitor and pulse oximeter technologies typically provide accurate estimates of a user’s heart rate and blood oxygen saturation respectively, there are inherent limitations with the technologies that may cause some of the readings to be inaccurate under certain circumstances, including the user’s physical characteristics, device fit and position, and type and intensity of activity.
- Activity trackers rely on sensors that track your movement and other metrics. The data provided by these devices is intended to be a close estimation of your activity and metrics tracked, but may not be completely accurate.
Safety and Tracking Warning
- The assistance feature allows you to send your location to an emergency contact. This is a supplemental feature and should not be relied upon as a primary method to obtain emergency assistance.
- The Garmin Connect™ app does not contact emergency services on your behalf.
- The incident detection feature is only available during certain outdoor activities. For more information, see the device owner’s manual.
Navigation Warnings
- If your Garmin device uses or accepts map data, follow these guidelines to ensure safe navigation.
- Always carefully compare information displayed on the device to all available navigation sources, including weather conditions, maps, street/ trail signs and conditions, waterway restrictions, and other factors that may affect safety.
- Always resolve any discrepancies or questions before continuing navigation, and defer to posted signs and conditions.
- Use this device only as a navigational aid. Do not attempt to use the device for any purpose requiring precise measurement of direction, distance, location, or topography.
CAUTION
Failure to heed the following cautions could result in minor or moderate
injury or property damage.
Skin Irritation
Some users may experience skin irritation after prolonged use of the watch,
especially if the user has sensitive skin or allergies. If you notice any skin
irritation, remove the watch and give your skin time to heal. To help prevent
skin irritation, ensure the watch is clean and dry, and do not overtighten the
watch on your wrist. For more information, go to garmin.com/fitandcare.
NOTICE
Failure to heed the following notices could result in personal or property
damage, or negatively impact the device functionality.
Battery Notices
- Replaceable coin cell batteries may contain perchlorate material. Special handling may apply. See www.dtsc.ca.gov/hazardouswaste/perchlorate.
- Contact your local waste disposal department to dispose of the device/ batteries in accordance with applicable local laws and regulations.
GPS Notice
The navigation device may experience degraded performance if you use it in
proximity to any device that uses a terrestrial broadband network operating
close to the frequencies used by any Global Navigation Satellite
System (GNSS), such as the Global Positioning Service (GPS). The use of such
devices may impair the reception of GNSS signals.
