WARNING
The marine radar transmits microwave energy that has the potential to be harmful to humans and animals.
Before beginning radar transmission, verify that the area around the radar is clear. The radar transmits a beam
approximately 12° above and below a line extending horizontally from the center of the radar. Avoid looking
directly at the radar, because the eyes are the most susceptible parts of the body.
When you connect your chartplotter to an optional Garmin marine radar such as a GMR
404/406 or a GMR
18/24, you can view more information about your surroundings. The radar connects through the Garmin
Marine Network and shares radar data with all networked chartplotters.
The GMR transmits a narrow beam of microwave energy as it rotates in a 360° pattern. When the transmitted
energy contacts a target, some of that energy is reected back to the radar.

The radar warms up and a countdown is provided to alert you when the radar is ready.
: As a safety feature, the radar enters standby mode after it warms up. This gives you an opportunity

Adjusting the Zoom Scale on the Radar Screen
The zoom scale, also called the radar range, represents the distance from your position (the center) to the
outermost ring. Each ring represents an even division of the zoom scale. For example, if the zoom scale is set
at three miles, each ring represents one mile from the center out.
