Cleaning
The eTrex Legend 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 deteregent solution and then wipe dry. Avoid
chemical cleaners and solvents that may damage plastic
components.
Storage
Storing alkaline batteries in the unit is not recom-
mended. To reduce the chance for battery leakage, remove
the batteries when storing the unit for more than six
months.
Do not store the eTrex Legend 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, routes, etc., is 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 recording it manually.
Water Immersion
The eTrex Legend is waterproof to IEC Standard 529
IPX7. The internal electronics case can withstand immer-
sion in 1 meter of water for 30 minutes although water
will enter the battery compartment. Prolonged submer-
sion can cause damage to the unit. After submersion, be
certain to remove the batteries and dry out the battery
compartment before reuse.
