Care Information
Cleaning the Unit
The GPSMAP 176/176C 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 detergent solution and then wipe
dry. Avoid chemical cleaners and solvents that may damage plastic
components.
WARNING: The GPSMAP 176/176C lens is coated with a special
anti-reflective coating which is very sensitive to skin oils, waxes,
and abrasive cleaners. CLEANERS CONTAINING AMMONIA
HARM THE ANTI-REFLECTIVE COATING. It is very important
to clean the lens using an eyeglass lens cleaner that is specified as
safe for anti-reflective coatings and a clean, lint-free cloth.
Storing the GPSMAP 176/176C
Do not store the GPSMAP 176/176C 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).

IPX7. It can withstand immersion in 1 meter of water for 30
minutes. Prolonged submersion can cause damage to the unit. After
