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 outer casing of the unit (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.
Although 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 because damage might
result.
