series of items. For example, if you

see “touch Where to? > Favorites”

you should touch Where to?, and

then touch Favorites.

are not labeled. For example, your

nüvi might have a button, but

iv nüvi 200 and 200W series owner’s manual

Introduction

Caring for Your nüvi

Your nüvi contains sensitive

electronic components that can be

permanently damaged if exposed

to excessive shock or vibration. To

minimize the risk of damage to your

nüvi, avoid dropping your unit and

operating it in high-shock and high-

vibration environments.

Cleaning the Unit

The nüvi is constructed of high-

quality materials and does not

require user maintenance other than

cleaning. Clean the outer casing

of the unit (not the touch screen)

using a cloth dampened with a mild

detergent solution, and then wipe

it dry. Avoid chemical cleaners and

solvents that can damage plastic

components.

Cleaning the Touch Screen

Clean the touch screen with 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

touch screen.

Protecting Your nüvi

Do not store the nüvi where

prolonged exposure to extreme

temperatures can occur, because

it can cause permanent damage.

Do not expose the nüvi to water.

Contact with water can cause this

unit to malfunction.

Although a PDA stylus can

be used to operate the touch

screen, never attempt this while

operating a vehicle. Never use a

hard or sharp object to operate

the touch screen because damage

might result.
