Caring for the GPSMAP 76Cx
The GPSMAP 76Cx 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
The GPSMAP 76Cx screen should be cleaned using
a soft, clean, lint-free cloth. Water, isopropyl alcohol,
or eyeglass cleaner can be used if needed. If these
are used, apply the liquid to the cloth and then gently
wipe the screen with the moistened cloth.
Storage
Do not store the GPSMAP 76Cx 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).
Water Immersion
The GPSMAP 76Cx 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 and replace batteries
before reuse.
