INTRODUCTION > CARING FOR THE LEGEND CX 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. vi eTrex Venture Cx and Legend Cx Owner's Manual
