CARING FOR YOUR LCR:

Since your Humminbird LCR is completely waterproof, it can be cleaned with soap and water or hosed off after salt water use with no fear of damage to the unit or its electronics. When cleaning the lens, it is suggested you use a chamois cloth and a non-abrasive cleaner such as windex. Do not wipe while dirt or other gritty material is on the lens. Care should be exercised to avoid scratching the lens.

Care should be exercised to keep chemicals such as bug repelent, ammonia, abrasive cleaners, or gasoline away from the LCR case and lens.

As with any electrical instrument, do not leave your LCR on the dash board or rear window area of the car. The sun can create extremely high temperatures which can damage the case and internal electrical components.

Extreme heat can possibly cause a blackening of the display. This is a temporary condition which will quickly clear. It is recommended that during periods of non-use, such as parking or trailoring the boat, that the LCR be removed from the boat or that the LCR face be turned down away from direct sun.

During extended periods of non-use, such as winter, you should store the LCR and other removable depth sounders in the house or garage. This will help prolong the good appearance and operation of these instruments.
