Appendix B

Cleaning

The GPS V is constructed of high quality materials and does not require user

maintenance other than cleaning. Clean the unit using a cloth dampened with a mild
detergent solution and then wipe dry. Avoid chemical cleaners and solvents that may
damage plastic components.

Storage

Storing alkaline batteries in the unit for extended periods is not recommended. In

order to reduce the chance for battery leakage in the battery compartment and map
data card slot, remove the batteries when storing the unit for more than six months.

Water Immersion

The GPS V is waterproof to IEC Standard 529 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 remove the batteries and map cartridge and dry the
compartments before reuse.

To resolve problems that cannot be remedied using this guide, Contact Garmin

Customer Service at 913/397.8200 or 1-800/800.1020.
