Cleaning the Unit

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.

Storing the GPSMAP 495

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).

Immersing the Unit in Water

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.
