StreetPilot 2730 Owner’s Manual vPREFACEFailure to avoid the following potentially hazardous situations may result in injury or property damage.The unit is designed to provide you with route suggestions. It does not reflect road closures or road conditions, traffic congestion, weather conditions, or other factors that may affect safety or timing while driving.Use the unit only as a navigational aid. Do not attempt to use the unit for any purpose requiring precise measurement of direction, distance, location, or topography. This product should not be used to determine ground proximity for aircraft navigation.The Global Positioning System (GPS) is operated by the United States government, which is solely responsible for its accuracy and maintenance. The government’s system is subject to changes which could affect the accuracy and performance of all GPS equipment, including the unit. Although the unit is a precision navigation device, any navigation device can be misused or misinterpreted and, therefore, become unsafe. CautionThis manual uses the term Caution to indicate a potentially hazardous situation, which, if not avoided, may result in minor injury or property damage. It may also be used without the symbol to alert you to avoid unsafe practices.Important InformationMAP DATA INFORMATION: One of the goals of Garmin is to provide customers with the most complete and accurate cartography that is available to us at a reasonable cost. We use a combination of governmental and private data sources, which we identify in product literature and copyright messages displayed to the consumer. Virtually all data sources contain inaccurate or incomplete data to some extent. This is particularly true outside the United States, where complete and accurate digital data is either not available or prohibitively expensive.
vi StreetPilot 2730 Owner’s ManualPREFACECaring for Your StreetPilot 2730 The StreetPilot 2730 is constructed of high quality materials and does not require user maintenance other than cleaning. Cleaning the UnitClean the unit’s outer casing using a cloth dampened with a mild detergent solution and then wipe dry. Avoid chemical cleaners and solvents that can damage plastic components.Caring for the Touch ScreenThe touch screen is intended to be operated with a finger. Never use a hard or sharp object to operate the touch screen or damage may result. Though a PDA stylus can also be used to operate the touch screen, never attempt this while operating a vehicle. Clean the touch screen using a soft, clean, lint-free cloth. Use water, isopropyl alcohol, or eyeglass cleaner if needed. If these are used, apply the liquid to the cloth and then gently wipe the touch screen.Protecting Your StreetPilot 2730• Do not store the unit where prolonged exposure to extreme temperatures can occur (such as in the trunk of a car), as permanent damage may result. • Do not leave your unit in plain sight when you leave your vehicle to avoid theft.• Do not store alkaline batteries in the remote control for extended periods. To reduce the chance for battery leakage in the battery compartment, remove the batteries when storing the remote control for more than six months.
