wipe it 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
• Carry and store your nüvi in the
optional carrying case.
• 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.
• Never use a hard or sharp object to
operate the touch screen, or damage
may result. Though a PDA stylus can

be used to operate the touch screen,
never attempt this while operating a
vehicle.

Avoiding Theft

• To avoid theft, remove the unit and
the mount from sight when not in
use. Remove the residue on the
windshield left by the suction cup.
• Do not keep your unit in the glove
compartment.
