Jeppesen® is a registered trademark of Jeppesen Sanderson, Inc. WARNING! USE THIS MAPPING UNIT ONLY AS AN AID TO NAVIGATION. A CARE- FUL NAVIGATOR NEVER RELIES ON ONLY ONE METHOD TO OB- TAIN POSITION INFORMATION. Never use this product while operating a vehicle. The background map built into this unit is not intended for navigation and its accuracy has not been verified. This map is derived from U.S. govern- ment sources which rely on ground and aerial surveys and satellite data. Since there can be inaccuracies in the data used to create the maps and in the map’s resolution, plus position inaccuracies in the navigation sys- tem, use caution when using this product. CAUTION When showing navigation data to a position (waypoint), this unit will show the shortest, most direct path to the waypoint. It provides navigation data to the waypoint regardless of obstructions. Therefore, the prudent naviga- tor will not only take advantage of all available navigation tools when trav- elling to a waypoint, but will also visually check to make certain a clear, safe path to the waypoint is always available. The storage temperature for your unit is from -4 degrees to +167 degrees Fahrenheit (-20 to +75 degrees Celsius). Extended storage temperatures higher or lower than specified will cause the liquid crystal display to fail. Neither this type of failure nor its consequences are covered by the war- ranty. For more information, consult the factory customer service depart- ment. All features and specifications subject to change without notice. All screens in this manual are simulated. Many were taken with an IMS SmartMap™ loaded into one of the cartridge slots.

INTRODUCTION Thank you for purchasing a Lowrance Avionics AirMap™. With its large LCD screen, easy to use menus, and outstanding performance, we think you’ll be happy with your AirMap for many years. No other handheld GPS receiver on the market today has the AirMap’s combination of 12 channel receiver, Jeppesen® database with obstacles (U.S. only), ground and hy- drographic mapping cartridge capability, and programmable screens in a handheld unit. Like most GPS receivers, your AirMap doesn’t have a compass or any other navigation aid built into it. It relies solely on the signals from the satellites to determine its position. Speed, direction of travel, and distance are all calculated from position information. Therefore, in order for it to determine the direction you’re travelling, you must be moving, and the faster - the better. This is not to say the unit won’t work at walking speeds - it will. But the faster you travel, the easier it is for the unit to determine your direction. GPS works from satellites that transmit information to the world at very high frequencies. One disadvantage to this frequency is that it’s “line-of- sight”. In other words, the signals don’t bounce around like your local radio or television. If you don’t have a clear view of the sky, or if you’re inside a metal building, the unit probably won’t be able to pick up the signals from the satellites. This is common among all GPS receivers. We have found that using this product inside an aircraft is usually sufficiently close to the windows and windshield that it works well. However, the in- cluded remote antenna bracket and cable (model PA-2) lets you mount the removable antenna on top of the dash, in case it’s required. Another factor that influences the GPS’ position and navigation capabili- ties is called selective availability or SA. This is small errors purposefully injected into the transmitted signal from the satellites. The government does this to degrade the system’s accuracy to civilian and foreign users. Even with SA, GPS is the most accurate navigation system ever invented on such a large scale. The Government’s accuracy specification is 100 meters horizontally and 150 meters vertically 95% of the time. In other words, the position shown on your AirMap could be up to 100 meters in any direction from your actual position, and the altitude could be plus or minus 150 meters from what’s shown on the screen, 95% of the time. One way around the S/A problem is to purchase a DGPS receiver and connect it to your AirMap. A DGPS receiver (commonly called a beacon receiver), picks up correction signals broadcast from ground stations. The 1

AirMap takes these corrections and applies them to the position and alti- tude screens, giving you much better accuracy. Even with S/A on, and without a DGPS receiver, your AirMap gives you outstanding position and navigation information. Please sit down with the unit and this manual and familiarize yourself with them before using this unit in the “real world”. A simulator is built in, which lets you practice with the receiver. INSTALLATION The AirMap operates from six AA batteries or from 6 to 35 volts DC. The cigarette lighter adapter included with your unit plugs into virtually any aircraft’s electrical system. The AirMap automatically switches to external power when it’s plugged into the unit (provided that the external power has a higher voltage than the batteries.) If, for any reason, the external power fails, the unit will automatically switch to the batteries. The AirMap does not require batteries when external power is in use, however they make a good backup in case of power failure. A rechargeable battery pack, (optional) has a nickle-metal hydride battery and charger built into a pack that’s almost identical to the alkaline battery pack that slides onto the bottom of the AirMap. An external antenna kit supplied with the unit allows the removable an- tenna to be mounted on a suction cup bracket up to four feet away from the GPS receiver. NiMH BATTERY SUCTION CUP AND BRACKET 2

BATTERY INSTALLATION The AirMap requires six AA batteries. We recommend DURACELL® alka- line batteries, but other brands will work. You can use lithium batteries which will last longer than alkaline batteries (but cost more) or recharge- able ni-cad batteries (won’t last as long as standard alkalines). Recharge- able alkaline batteries such as RayOVac® Renewals® will also work . Do not use heavy-duty batteries or any battery other than the ones listed above. Do not mix different types of batteries. (For example, don’t use both alkaline and ni-cad batteries at the same time.) To install the batteries, first turn the AirMap so that it is facing you. Now grasp the bottom part of the case and push it to the right until it comes completely off the unit. The bottom part of the case holds the batteries. Next, push the battery holder out the bottom of the battery cover as shown below. Install each battery with the negative end (-) against the spring. The positive end (+) of each battery should be firmly against the metal plate. When all six batteries are installed, slide the battery holder into the battery cover. If the battery holder sticks when slid- ing into the battery cover, apply a thin film of petroleum jelly to the “O” rings on the battery holder. 3

IMPORTANT! There are arrows molded into the bottom of the battery cover and battery holder. Make certain the arrows are properly aligned! Otherwise, the bat- tery holder won’t slide all the way into the cover and the battery pack won’t slide onto the unit. Slide the battery pack onto the unit and the AirMap is ready for use. EXTERNAL POWER Instead of batteries, the AirMap can operate on 6 to 35 volts DC from an external power source. To use external power, an adapter cable is sup- plied with your unit that will plug into your vehicle’s cigarette lighter. To use this cable, simply plug one end into the AirMap and the other end into the cigarette lighter. A rubber plug is supplied with your AirMap to cover the external power jack on the side of the unit when it’s not in use. You can leave the battery pack on when using external power, no damage to the batteries or the unit will occur. However, if you remove the battery pack from the AirMap, we recommend that the battery contact cover be placed onto the battery pack as shown below. This will prevent the battery pack contacts from shorting against metal objects. A separate cover is provided for the bottom of the AirMap. 4
