 Cleaning
The eTrex Vista is constructed of high quality materi-
als and does not require user maintenance other than 
cleaning. Clean the unit using a cloth dampened with 
a mild deteregent solution and then wipe dry. Avoid 
chemical cleaners and solvents that may damage plastic 
components.
 Storage
Storing alkaline batteries in the unit is not recom-
mended. To reduce the chance for battery leakage, remove 
the batteries when storing the unit for more than six 
months.
Do not store the eTrex Vista where prolonged expo-
sure to temperature extremes may occur (such as in the 
trunk of a car) as permanent damage may result. User 
information, such as waypoints, routes, etc., 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 recording it manually.
 Water Immersion
The eTrex Vista is waterproof to IEC Standard 529 
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 remove the bat-
teries and dry the components before reuse.
