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, 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 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.
