Precautions for use

• For optimal satellite signal reception, attach the inReach to a backpack or your upper body. The inReach requires an open, unobstructed sky to maintain a clear signal for sending messages, tracking your location, or using the SOS function. Therefore, signal conditions may be poor in caves, dense forests, or narrow ravines, and multiple attempts may be required to successfully send a message. If the signal is poor, the device will repeatedly attempt to transmit until a successful transmission is achieved, which will increase battery life.
• The person staying behind must be fully aware of the itinerary. When the SOS function is activated, the injured person will be contacted through the person staying behind until help arrives. Therefore, the person staying behind must be fully aware of the itinerary for the most efficient rescue.
• Please be sure to return the machine on time to avoid affecting the rights of the next user.
• Battery Usage Reminder: The inReach Mini2 is set to transmit its location every 10 minutes upon power-up. In poor reception, the device will continue transmitting until it successfully completes, which consumes more battery. If used continuously in such conditions, the official estimate is that the battery life is up to four days, so be sure to bring a power bank with sufficient charge. (To conserve battery, we recommend setting the device to "Stop Tracking" when you arrive at a rest stop, but don't forget to press "Start Tracking" when you depart!)
• When you receive the machine, please be sure to test it to see if all functions are working properly.

Damage and loss billing method

• Machine lost or damaged beyond repair: NT$12,000
• Charging cable, hook and ring damaged or lost: 300 yuan
• If the machine is repairable, the deposit will be refunded after the repair is completed, minus the actual repair costs.

Function Introduction

Recommended useful features of GARMIN inReach Mini 2:

1. Message 2. Weather 3. Tracking 4. SOS

(It is recommended to use the functions of existing mobile apps: navigation, recording)

message

• Send SMS

When encountering special situations where the preset messages don't describe the situation, you can type in your own message. However, the inReach mini 2's buttons are difficult to operate. We recommend downloading the GARMIN Messenger app on your phone and connecting it to the inReach Bluetooth. Entering the message in the app allows you to send it directly.

• Message sending and receiving by the remaining party

It is recommended to use mobile phone or email as the main channel of communication.
The satellite message received by the person behind the scenes includes the coordinates, message content, and a link to the location. To send the message to the user, click the link to reply. (Please do not reply directly to emails or text messages, as the other party will not receive the message!)

weather

• You can select the forecast location (current location & other locations you want to query).
• Basic forecast is 3 days

Trajectory tracking

• After clicking "Start Tracking," inReach will begin sending your location regularly. We'll provide a dedicated URL for those who stay behind to view your real-time tracking data. The default frequency is every 10 minutes.
• The tracking function is automatically turned on by default. That is, after turning on the power, inReach will automatically start tracking the location. To stop, just click "Stop Tracking".

SOS

• When the situation is urgent, the user can open the SOS protective cover and press the button. The message will be sent to the International Emergency Response Coordination Center (overseas) to notify Taiwan's relevant rescue units and those who remain behind, and the injured will be contacted through the message.
