The GPSMAP 495 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. 

Do not store the GPSMAP 495 where prolonged exposure to 

temperature extremes can occur (such as in the trunk of a car) as 

permanent damage may result. User information, such as waypoints 

and routes, is 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). 

The GPSMAP 495 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 before reuse or charging.
