Simple Maintenance

Mount it out of direct sunlight. The dashboard might become riskily hot for GPS even on cool days – that probably cause damage to the GPS memory.

Keep your gadget away from impact, heat, dust and humidity.

Clean. Wiping it with a clean cloth is OK. For GPS having openings like card slot, you’d better clean it with canned air instead of cloth and your humid breath.

Be careful about the moving parts. They are more likely to be damaged comparing to other parts.

Don’t drop your GPS unit too frequently. Accidentally dropping once or twice might cause no damage for normal use. But no electronics can endure frequent dropping.
