Observe the following precautions when handling the transducer cable:

-Keep away from oils.

-Choose a working area where the cable will not be damaged during installation.

The sheath of the cable is made of chloroprene (or polyvinyl chloride). Those materials easily deteriorate in the presence of organic solvents (toulene, etc.) found in paints. For that reason keep the cable away from ship's paint house.
