Disconnecting the USB Cable

device from your computer to avoid data loss. If your device is connected to your Windows computer as a
portable device, it is not necessary to safely disconnect the device.

• For Windows computers, select the Safely Remove Hardware icon in the system tray, and select your
device.
• For Apple computers, select the device, and select File > Eject.

2 Disconnect the cable from your computer.

Deleting Files

If you do not know the purpose of a file, do not delete it. Your device memory contains important system files
that should not be deleted.
1 Open the Garmin drive or volume.
2 If necessary, open a folder or volume.
3 Select a file.
4 Press the Delete key on your keyboard.
NOTE: If you are using an Apple computer, you must empty the Trash folder to completely remove the files.

Device Care

Do not use a sharp object to clean the device.
Avoid chemical cleaners, solvents, and insect repellents that can damage plastic components and finishes.
Thoroughly rinse the device with fresh water after exposure to chlorine, salt water, sunscreen, cosmetics,
alcohol, or other harsh chemicals. Prolonged exposure to these substances can damage the case.
Do not wash the device under high pressure, because jets of water or air may cause damage to the depth
sensor or barometer.
Avoid extreme shock and harsh treatment, because it can degrade the life of the product.
Do not store the device where prolonged exposure to extreme temperatures can occur, because it can cause
permanent damage.
Discontinue use if the device is damaged or if it is stored at a temperature outside the specified storage
temperature range.

Cleaning the Device

Even small amounts of sweat or moisture can cause corrosion of the electrical contacts when connected to a
charger. Corrosion can prevent charging and data transfer.
1 Wipe the device using a cloth dampened with a mild detergent solution.
