Remove any BlueChart cards in your Garmin unit before transferring MapSource maps to the unit to avoid losing the preprogrammed data. If you overwrite the preprogrammed data on a BlueChart card, Garmin will not replace or recover the lost data. DISCLAIMER: Your MapSource unlock code is valid for use with your own Garmin unit. If you own more than one Garmin unit or upgrade to a new Garmin unit, you must have a separate code for each Garmin unit. If you personally own two Garmin units, you may obtain a second unlock code for the same region for your own personal use at no additional charge. No more than two Garmin units may be unlocked with the purchase of a single unlock code. You must purchase a new unlock code if you have already unlocked two Garmin units. Information about obtaining additional unlock codes can be found at: my. garmin. com. This agreement provides a one-user license and it is illegal to share this data with others. Garmin does not give refunds or exchanges for MapSource unlock codes.
