INSTRUCTIONS
Important Safety Information
WARNING
See the
Important Safety and Product Information
guide in the
chartplotter product box for product warnings and other
important information.
You are responsible for the safe and prudent operation of your
vessel. Sonar is a tool that enhances your awareness of the
water beneath your boat. It does not relieve you of the
responsibility of observing the water around your boat as you
navigate.
CAUTION
Failure to install and maintain this equipment in accordance with
these instructions could result in damage or injury.
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, you must install the Garmin
®
device according to these
instructions.
Read all installation instructions before proceeding with the
installation. If you experience difficulty during the installation, go
to
support.garmin.com
for more information.
Software Update
You must update the Garmin chartplotter software when you
install this device.
If your chartplotter has Wi
‑
Fi
®
technology, you should update the
software using the ActiveCaptain
®
app on a compatible Android
™
or Apple
®
device.
If your chartplotter does not have Wi
‑
Fi technology, you should
update the software using a memory card and a Windows
®
or
Mac
®
computer.
For more information, go to
support.garmin.com
.
Tools Needed
•
Drill
•
4 mm (
5
/
32
in.) and 3.2 mm (
1
/
8
in.) drill bits
•
Masking tape
•
#2 Phillips screwdriver
•
Marine sealant
•
32 mm (1
1
/
4
in.) hole saw (optional)
•
Cable ties (optional)
Mounting Considerations
•
You must angle the transducer correctly for your selected
mode to work properly.
•
You must install the sonar module in a location with adequate
ventilation where it will not be exposed to extreme
temperatures.
•
You should mount the transducer in a location where it will
not be jarred when launching, hauling, or storing.
•
You should mount the transducer in a location where it is not
behind strakes, struts, fittings, water intake or discharge
ports, thru-hull transducers, or anything that creates air
bubbles or causes the water to become turbulent. Turbulent
water may interfere with the sonar beam.
•
You should mount the transducer as close to the center line
of the boat as possible.
•
When mounted farther from the center of the transom, a
greater deadrise can cause the boat hull
to interfere with
the sonar beam
, and can cause inconsistent detection on
the opposite side of the boat
. The transducer is shown
from behind.
•
On single-drive vessels, you must not mount the transducer
in the path of the propeller.
•
On twin-drive vessels, you should mount the transducer
between the drives, if possible.
•
You should mount the sonar module in a location where the
LEDs are visible, where the cables can be connected, and
where the device will not be submerged.
Cable Considerations
NOTICE
Separating the Siamese cables near the rotating joint on a
cable-steered trolling motor reduces stress and extends the life
of the cables.
Zip ties and cable clamps can over-tighten and damage or break
the cable, or cause cable fatigue due to repeated rotation of the
motor.
You should use black electrical tape to secure the cables above
and below the rotating joint. If you secure the cables with zip
ties, do not over-tighten the zip ties.
You should secure the cables above and below the pivot joint of
your trolling motor.
You should create a service loop at least 25 cm (10 in.) long in
the cables, with the rotating joint centered on the loop.
You should use the included tool, a flathead screwdriver, or a
blunt knife to separate the cables.
