The temperature rating for the GPSMAP 76S may exceed the usable range of some batteries. Alkaline batteries can rupture at

high temperatures. Alkaline batteries lose a significant amount of their capacity as temperature decreases. Use lithium batteries

when operating the GPSMAP 76S in below-freezing conditions. Extensive use of screen backlighting will significantly reduce

battery life.
