Installing the Batteries
Open the case and lay it flat. (The latch is located below the handle.)

Insert eight "AA" size batteries into the battery adapter and place it in

the battery compartment. Slip the battery cover tabs into the slots in

the case wall, then close the battery cover with the thumb screw.

Install batteries in battery compartment (left).

Attach power cable, and route wires as shown (right).

Plug the cable's power (dog bone-shaped) connector into the socket on

the battery compartment cover. Route the cable's unit connector and

about 6 inches (15.2 cm) of cable through the opening under the sonar

mount. Close the case bottom, using the slot in the case wall to avoid

pinching the cable. Turn the unit over to mount the sonar.
CAUTION:

When using the sonar in a saltwater environment, we strongly
recommend that you unplug the power connector from the bat-
tery socket when the unit is not in use. When the unit is turned
off but still connected to a power supply, electrolysis can occur in
the power cable plug. This may result in corrosion of the plug
body along with the electrical contacts in the cable and the
unit's power socket.
