Caring for you eTrex
The case is constructed of high-quality materials and
does not require user maintenance except cleaning.
Cleaning the Case
Clean the unit’s outer casing (except for the screen)
using a cloth dampened with a mild detergent solution
and then wipe dry. Avoid chemical cleaners and
solvents that may damage plastic components.
Cleaning the Screen
Clean the screen using a soft, clean, lint-free cloth.
Use water, isopropyl alcohol, or eyeglass cleaner if
needed. Apply the liquid to the cloth, and then gently
wipe the screen with the moistened cloth.
Storage
Do not store where prolonged exposure to temperature
extremes may occur (such as in the trunk of a car) as
permanent damage may 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 software).
Water Immersion
Your eTrex 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 applying
auxiliary power.
