GPS Cleaning
The StreetPilot 2610/2650 case and remote are constructed of high quality materials and do not require
user maintenance other than cleaning. Clean the unit using a cloth dampened with a mild detergent solu-
tion and then wipe dry. Avoid chemical cleaners and solvents that may damage plastic components.
Touchscreen Cleaning
The StreetPilot 2610/2650 touchscreen is intended primarily for fi nger operation. Although a PDA
stylus may also be used to operate touchscreen, never attempt this while operating a vehicle. Never use a
hard or sharp object to operate the touchscreen or damage may result. The touchscreen should be cleaned
using a soft, clean, lint-free cloth. Water, isopropyl alcohol, or eyeglass cleaner may be used if needed. If
these are used, apply liquid to cloth and then gently wipe touchscreen with moistened cloth.
Storage
Do not store the StreetPilot 2610/2650 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,
routes, etc. 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).
Storing alkaline batteries in the remote control for extended periods is not recommended. In order to
reduce the chance for battery leakage in the battery compartment, remove the batteries when storing the
unit for more than six months.
