fi sh fi nder.
R
WARNING:
NEVER
open the bottom cover
of the fi sh fi nder by yourself. This should only be done
by qualifi ed equipment installers.
There are no user adjustment points. Opening the
case may expose you to electric shock and incorrect

WARNING:
NEVER
modify or attempt to
repair the equipment by yourself.
ONLY qualified persons are allowed to modify or
repair the equipment.
CAUTION! NEVER
connect the fi sh fi nder to a
DC power source using reverse polarity.
This will damage the fi sh fi nder.
CAUTION! NEVER
remove the fuse holders
from the DC power cable.
This will damage the fi sh fi nder.
CAUTION! KEEP
the fi sh fi nder at least 1 meter
(3.28 ft) away from your vessel’s magnetic navigation
compass.
DO NOT
place the fish finder in excessively dusty
environments.
DO NOT
place the fish finder near heating
equipment or in direct sunlight or where hot or cold air
blows directly onto it.
DO NOT
use or place the fish finder in areas with
temperature below –20˚C (–4˚F) or above +60˚C
(+140˚F).
DO NOT
use chemical agents such as benzine
or alcohol when cleaning the fish finder, as they can
damage the fi sh fi nder’s surfaces.
To clean the equipment, wipe it using a soft cloth
damped with a water-diluted detergent.
DO NOT
place the fish finder in areas that will
block air passage or put anything around the fish
fi nder. This will obstruct heat dissipation.
KEEP
the fi sh fi nder out of the reach of children.
KEEP
the fish finder away from heavy rain, and
never immerse it in the water.
The fish finder meets IPX4 requirements for splash
resistance when the transducer is attached to one
connector, and the connector cap is installed on the
other connector.
However, if it is dropped, splash resistance cannot be
guaranteed because of possible damage to the case
or the waterproof seals.
