Caring for you eTrex

The case is constructed of high-quality materials and

does not require user maintenance except cleaning.

Cleaning the Case

Clean the unit’s outer casing (except for the screen)

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 Screen

Clean the screen using 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 screen with the moistened cloth.

Storage

Do not store 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. It is

always a good practice to back up important user data

by manually recording it or downloading it to a PC

(transferring it to MapSource software).

Water Immersion

Your eTrex

is waterproof to IEC Standard 60529

IPX7. It can withstand immersion in 1 meter of water

for 30 minutes. Prolonged submersion can cause

damage to the unit. After submersion, be certain to

wipe and air dry the unit before reuse or applying

auxiliary power.
