Introduction

Maintenance
Caring for your StreetPilot
Cleaning the Case and Remote Control
The StreetPilot 2610/2650 case and remote are constructed of high quality materials and do not require
user maintenance other than cleaning. Clean the unit’s outer casing (except for the touchscreen) using a
cloth dampened with a mild detergent solution and then wipe dry. Avoid chemical cleaners and solvents
that may damage plastic components.
Cleaning the Touchscreen
The StreetPilot 2610/2650 touchscreen is intended primarily for finger operation. Although a PDA stylus
may also be used to operate touchscreen, never attempt this while operating a vehicle. Never use a hard or
sharp object to operate the touchscreen or damage may result. The touchscreen should be cleaned using a
soft, clean, lint-free cloth. Water, isopropyl alcohol, or eyeglass cleaner can be used if needed. If these are
used, apply the liquid to the cloth and then gently wipe the touchscreen with the moistened cloth.
Storage
Do not store the StreetPilot 2610/2650 where prolonged exposure to temperature extremes may occur
(such as in the trunk of a car) as permanent damage may result. User information such as waypoints and
routes are retained in the unit’s memory without the need for external power. Back up important user data
by manually recording it or downloading it to a PC (transferring it to MapSource).
Storing alkaline batteries in the remote control for extended periods is not recommended. In order to
reduce the chance for battery leakage in the battery compartment, remove the batteries when storing the
remote control for more than six months.
