Caring for the Fishfinder 160C
The FF160C’s case is constructed of high-quality materials and does
not require user maintenance except cleaning.
Cleaning the Case
Clean the unit’s outer casing (except for the screen) using a cloth
dampened with a mild detergent solution, and then wipe dry.
Avoid chemical cleaners and solvents that may damage plastic
components.
Cleaning the Screen
The screen should only be cleaned using eyeglass lens cleaner. Use
a soft, clean, lint-free cloth. Using cleaners containing Ammonia
will harm the anti-reflective screen coating. Apply the liquid to the
cloth and then gently wipe the screen with the moistened cloth.
Storage
Do not store the FF160C where prolonged exposure to temperature
extremes may occur (such as in the trunk of a car) as permanent
damage may result.
Water Immersion
The FF160C
is waterproof to IEC Standard 60529 IPX7. It can
withstand immersion in 1 meter of water for 30 minutes. Prolonged
submersion can cause damage to the unit. After submersion, be
certain to wipe and air dry the unit before reuse.
WARNING: The Fishfinder 160C lens is coated with a special
anti-reflective coating which is very sensitive to skin oils, waxes,
and abrasive cleaners. CLEANERS CONTAINING AMMONIA
WILL HARM THE ANTI-REFLECTIVE COATING. It is very
important to clean the lens using an eyeglass lens cleaner which
is specified as safe for anti-reflective coatings and a clean, lint-
free cloth.
