Caring for the GPSMAP 76CSx
The GPSMAP 76CSx case is constructed of 
high quality materials and does not require user 
maintenance except cleaning. 
Cleaning the Case 
Clean the unit’s outer casing (except for the screen) 
using a cloth dampened with a mild detergent solution 
and then wipe dry. Avoid chemical cleaners and 
solvents that may damage plastic components.
Cleaning the Screen
The GPSMAP 76CSx screen should be cleaned using 
a soft, clean, lint-free cloth. Water, isopropyl alcohol, 
or eyeglass cleaner can be used if needed. If these 
are used, apply the liquid to the cloth and then gently 
wipe the screen with the moistened cloth.
Storage
Do not store the GPSMAP 76CSx 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 and routes are 
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 manually recording it or 
downloading it to a PC (transferring it to MapSource).
Water Immersion
The GPSMAP 76CSx
 
is waterproof to IEC Standard 
60529 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 wipe and air dry the unit and replace batteries 
before reuse.
