ECHOMAP™ PLUS 40 SERIES INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS Important Safety Information WARNING See the Important Safety and Product Information guide in the product box for product warnings and other important information. When connecting the power cable, do not remove the in-line fuse holder. To prevent the possibility of injury or product damage caused by fire or overheating, the appropriate fuse must be in place as indicated in the product specifications. In addition, connecting the power cable without the appropriate fuse in place voids the product warranty. CAUTION Always wear safety goggles, ear protection, and a dust mask when drilling, cutting, or sanding. NOTICE When drilling or cutting, always check what is on the opposite side of the surface. To obtain the best performance and to avoid damage to your boat, install the device according to these instructions. Read all installation instructions before proceeding with the installation. If you experience difficulty during the installation, contact Garmin® Product Support.

Tools Needed • Drill • Drill bits ◦ Bail mount: drill bits appropriate for the surface and hardware ◦ Swivel mount: 3 mm (1/8 in.) drill bit ◦ Flush mount: 3 mm (1/8 in.) and 9.5 mm (3/8 in.) drill bits • #2 Phillips screwdriver • Jigsaw or rotary tool • File and sandpaper • Marine sealant (optional) Mounting Considerations The device can be mounted using the included bracket, or it can be mounted flush with the dashboard using a flush-mount kit (may be sold separately). Before permanently installing any part of your device, you should plan the installation by determining the location of the various components. • The mounting location must provide a clear view of the screen and access to the keys on the device. • The mounting location must be sturdy enough to support the device and the mount. • The cables must be long enough to connect the components to each other and to power. • The cables can be routed under the bail mount or behind the device. • To avoid interference with a magnetic compass, the device should not be installed closer to a compass than the compass-safe distance value listed in the product specifications.
