Now that you have your GlobalMap Baja installed, move on to Section
3, Basic GPS Operations. There, we'll present a series of step-by-step
tutorials to teach you the basics of GPS navigation.
Face Cover
Your unit comes with a white protective cover that snaps on and off the
front of the unit. This cover is intended for use when your unit and the
vehicle it's mounted in are idle.
WARNING:
When the unit is mounted in an unprotected area, such as
an open boat cockpit, the protective face cover must be
removed when the vehicle is moving at high speed. This
includes towing a boat on a trailer at highway speeds. Oth-
erwise, windblast can pop off the cover.
Cleaning Towel
A lint-free microfiber towel is included for cleaning the unit’s screen.
The towel is highly effective in clearing away water spots, smudges and
finger prints. Just wipe the screen with the dry towel — it's not neces-
sary to moisten the towel with water. If the screen is badly soiled, you
may use water or common window or lens cleaners. However, DO NOT
use polishing compounds or any other abrasive product.
If you lose the towel or wear it out, you can replace it with a similar
microfiber cloth. These are often available where shop towels or auto-
mobile cleaning towels are sold.
Caution:
Cleaning fabrics other than the microfiber towel type may scratch
the screen. Polishing compounds or other abrasive cleaners will
scratch the screen. Damage caused by incorrect cleaning is not cov-
ered by the warranty. You may wash the towel if it becomes soiled
or loses its effectiveness, but do not use fabric softener. Fabric sof-
tener will ruin the towel’s cleaning capability.
