Caring for Your nüvi

Your nüvi contains sensitive electronic

components that can be permanently

damaged if exposed to excessive shock or

vibration. To minimize the risk of damage

to your nüvi, avoid dropping your unit

and operating it in high-shock and high-

vibration environments.

Cleaning the Unit

The nüvi is constructed of high-quality

materials and does not require user

maintenance other than cleaning. Clean

the unit’s outer casing (not the touch

screen) using a cloth dampened with a mild

detergent solution, and then wipe dry. Avoid

chemical cleaners and solvents that can

damage plastic components.

Cleaning the Touch Screen

Clean the touch screen with a soft, clean,

lint-free cloth. Use water, isopropyl alcohol,

or eyeglass cleaner, if needed. Apply the

liquid to the cloth, and then gently wipe the

touch screen.

Protecting Your nüvi

Do not store the nüvi where prolonged

exposure to extreme temperatures can

occur (such as in the trunk of a car),

because it can cause permanent damage.
Do not expose the nüvi to water.

Contact with water can cause this unit to

malfunction.
Though a PDA stylus can also be used to

operate the touch screen, never attempt

this while operating a vehicle. Never

use a hard or sharp object to operate the

touch screen or damage may result.

Avoiding Theft

To avoid theft, remove the unit and

mount from sight when not in use.

Remove the residue on the windshield

left by the suction cup.
Do not keep your unit in the glove

compartment; thieves know where to

look.
