The Geko 301 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 more rea-

sonable 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 of the following measures:

• Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.

• Increase the separation between the equipment and the receiver.

• Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the

receiver is connected.

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

The Geko 301 does not contain any user-serviceable parts. Repairs should only be

made by an authorized Garmin service center. Unauthorized repairs or modiﬁ cations

could result in permanent damage to the equipment, and void your warranty and your

authority to operated this device under Part 15 regulations.

CAUTION: Use the Geko 301 at your own risk. To reduce the risk of unsafe opera-

tion, carefully review and understand all aspects of this Owner’s Manual—and thoroughly

practice operation using the simulator mode prior to actual use. When in actual use, care-

fully compare indications from the Geko 301 to all available navigation sources, including

the information from other NAVAIDs, visual sightings, charts, etc. For safety, always resolve

any discrepancies before continuing navigation.

CAUTION: IT IS THE USER’S RESPONSIBILITY TO USE THIS PRODUCT PRU-

DENTLY. THIS PRODUCT IS INTENDED TO BE USED ONLY AS A NAVIGATIONAL AID

AND MUST NOT BE USED FOR ANY PURPOSE REQUIRING PRECISE MEASUREMENT

OF DIRECTION, DISTANCE, LOCATION OR TOPOGRAPHY. THIS PRODUCT SHOULD

NOT BE USED AS AN AID TO DETERMINE GROUND PROXIMITY FOR AIRCRAFT

NAVIGATION.

WARNING: The Global Positioning System (GPS) is operated by the United States

government, which is solely responsible for its accuracy and maintenance. The system is

subject to changes which could affect the accuracy and performance of all GPS equipment.

Although the Garmin GPS receiver is a precision electronic NAVigation AID (NAVAID), any

NAVAID can be misused or misinterpreted and, therefore, become unsafe.

WARNING: For use in vehicles, it the sole responsibility of the driver of the vehicle to

operate the vehicle in a safe manner, maintain full surveillance of all driving conditions at all

times, and not become distracted by the Geko 301 to the exclusion of safe driving practices.

It is unsafe to operate the controls of the Geko 301 while you are driving. Failure by the

driver of a vehicle equipped with a Geko 301 to pay full attention to operation of the vehicle

and road conditions while the vehicle is in motion could result in an accident or collision

with property damage and personal injury.

GPS CLEANING

The Geko 301 is constructed of high quality materials and does not require user main-

tenance other than cleaning. Clean the unit using a cloth dampened with a mild detergent

solution and then wipe dry. Avoid chemical cleaners and solvents that may damage plastic

components.

STORAGE

Storing alkaline batteries in the unit for long periods of time is not recommended. In

order to reduce the chance for battery leakage in the battery compartment, remove the bat-

teries when storing the unit for more than six months.

Do not store the Geko 301 where prolonged exposure to temperature extremes may oc-

cur (such as in the trunk of a car) as permanent damage may result. User information, such

as waypoints, routes, etc. will be retained in the unit’s memory without the need for external

power. It is always a good practice to back up important user data by manually recording it

or downloading it to a PC (transferring it to MapSource).

WATER IMMERSION

The Geko 301 is waterproof to IEC Standard 529 IPX7. It can withstand immersion in 1

meter of water for 30 minutes. Prolonged submersion can cause damage to the unit. After

submersion, be certain to remove the batteries and dry the compartments before reuse.

To resolve problems that cannot be remedied using this guide, contact Garmin Customer

Support in the U.S.A. at 800-800-1020 or Garmin Europe at 44-1794-519944.

What is the

Satellite Page?

The Satellite Page displays the Geko 301 looking for and gathering all the necessary

information from satellites in order to give your location. There are two display options on

the Satellite Page, Normal Skyview and Advanced Skyview. Normal Skyview shows you (in

animation), the satellites, receiving satellite signals, the signal strength, and the Geko 301’s

estimated location accuracy.

To activate the Advanced Skyview page, press the OK Button on the Satellite Page, select

‘Advanced Skyview’ option and press the OK Button again. This page displays the actual

numbered satellites in orbit the Geko 301 is using, their proximity to your current position,

and their individual strengths. The outer circle of the display represents the horizon and

the center represents the sky directly overhead to help you determine the location of the

satellites.

When you see the “READY TO NAVIGATE” message, the Geko 301 has found your loca-

tion and you are ready to go!

‘CLEAR’ the track log before starting a new trip.

USING THE TRACK LOG

The Geko 301 draws an electronic breadcrumb trail or ‘track log’ on the Map Page as

you travel. The track log starts recording as soon as the Geko 301 gets a location ﬁ x.

To make use of the track log, select the ‘PAN TRACK LOG’ option to show a pointer

which moves along the track log when you press the UP or DOWN Button. Press the OK

Button to see the four choices ‘TRACBACK’, ‘GOTO’, ‘MARK’ and ‘ZOOM’.

‘TRACBACK’ will guide you to where you started by following the track log that you left

behind, allowing you to return along a traveled path without marking any waypoints. For

the best results, clear the track log before you start traveling because when the track log is

full, the new track points will overwrite the oldest track points.

‘GOTO’ guides you from your current location to the waypoint selected while ‘MARK’

creates a waypoint on the selected track point. ‘ZOOM’ adjusts the level of viewable map

detail.

To clear the track log:

1. From the Map Page, press the OK Button to display the Map Page Options menu.

2. Press the DOWN Button to highlight ‘CLEAR TRACK LOG’ and press the OK Button.

3. At the message “DO YOU REALLY WANT TO CLEAR THE TRACK LOG?”, press the

DOWN Button to highlight ‘YES’ and press the OK Button to clear the track log and

return to the Map Page.

Navigation Page

Show me the

way!

The Navigation Page provides active guidance with a rotating compass ring that shows your

course over ground (track) while you’re moving and a bearing pointer to indicate the current

direction to your destination (bearing) relative to the course over ground.

The Compass Ring works as an electronic compass. When you are stationary, it works

as a magnetic compass (which can be turned On or Off). When the Compass is on and you

are moving, the heading is controlled by the GPS receiver. The Compass switches to the

GPS receiver when your rate of travel reaches a user-deﬁ ned speed, and comes back on when

you have stopped moving after a user-deﬁ ned period of time. Use the Heading Setup Page to

change the user-deﬁ ned speed and time. (See page 40)

One Data Field is available at the bottom of the screen and you can use the UP and DOWN

Buttons to scroll through the menu choices. A list of the ﬁ elds can be found on page 13.

The Bent (Bearing) Pointer arrow alerts you to the upcoming turn while you are navigating

a route. When you get within 15 seconds of the current point, the pointer “bends” to indicate

the direction of the turn to the next point.

When you are not on an active GOTO, Track, or Route (not traveling to a recorded des-

tination), the status at the top of the page displays the status of the GPS Receiver and the ap-

proximate accuracy of our current position. The Compass Ring displays your heading while

you are moving, but the data ﬁ eld at the bottom of the page will not display any destination

related information, such as Estimated Time of Arrival.

Turning the Electronic Compass On and Off:

1. Press and hold the PAGE Button to turn the Electronic Compass On or Off.

2. When the Electronic Compass is on, hold the Geko 301 level to get an accurate Com-

pass reading.

To use Sight ‘N Go to navigate:

1. On the Navigation Page, with the compass turned on and ‘READY TO NAVIGATE’, press

the OK Button and select the option Sight ‘N Go by pressing the OK Button again. Note

that the compass ring with the pointer is in-line with the two sighting marks on the

case.

2. Hold the Geko 301 eye-level and line up the two sighting marks with a distant object,

press the OK Button and select ‘SET COURSE’ to lock the heading in place.

3. Begin traveling to your destination using the compass pointer as a guide.

4. To view the Sight ‘N Go options, press the OK Button to ‘SET (New) COURSE’, ‘PROJECT

(Waypoint)’, and ‘RE-SIGHT’.

When using a Sight ‘N Go, the compass displays a broken course pointer. What this

means is as you are moving, if you were to stray left or right of your pre-set course, the

middle section of the course pointer moves to the left or right of the center. To get back on
