Care Information

Cleaning the Unit

The GPSMAP 182/182C 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 can

damage plastic components.

Storing the GPSMAP 182/182C

Do not store the GPSMAP 182/182C where prolonged exposure to

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

permanent damage can 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.)

Immersing the Unit in Water

The GPSMAP 182/182C 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.
