battery voltage. Most of the complaints we receive about portable units result from stale batteries. Make certain the ones you buy are fresh. Always remove batteries from the battery compartment before storing the unit as dead batteries can leak and corrode the contacts.
In cold weather the efficiency of dry cell batteries drops with the tempera- ture. We find it a good idea to have the sonar unit good and warm along with the batteries before we leave home. If the batteries do lose a charge, you can sometimes restore them by placing them in a warm room or car interior. A better way is to replace them with batteries that have been kept warm. Don't ever heat the batteries over an open flame or direct hot air onto them. A fire or explosion could result.
PORTABLE TRANSDUCER ASSEMBLY
Assemble the transducer and bracket as shown below. Attach the transducer to the bracket with the supplied hardware. Make certain there is one washer on each side of the transducer, inside the bracket. Slide the other washer over the end of the bolt and thread the nut onto it. Screw the suction cup onto the bracket using the supplied screw and flat washer. Tie the nylon cord through the hole in the top of the bracket. When using this transducer, tie the other end of the nylon cord to the boat. This will help prevent the loss of the transducer if it comes off the boat.
