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.

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 wipe dry. 

Avoid chemical cleaners and solvents 

that can damage plastic components.

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 gently 

wipe the touch screen.

Do not store the nüvi where prolonged 

exposure to extreme temperatures can 

occur, because it can cause permanent 

damage.
