Protecting Your nüvi

Carry and store your nüvi in the optional

carrying case.
Do not store the nüvi where prolonged

exposure to extreme temperatures can

occur because it can cause permanent

damage.

Contact with water can cause this unit to

malfunction.
Never use a hard or sharp object to

operate the touch screen, or damage may

result. Though a PDA stylus can be used

to operate the touch screen, never attempt

this while operating a vehicle.

the mount from sight when not in use.

Remove the residue on the windshield
