Step 3: Install the TransducerThe following instructions describe the basic installation of typical transducers, such as the one included with your Fishnder 300C. Additional
installation instructions are provided in the transducer kits. Some transducers may have to be installed by a professional marine installer.
CAUTION: DO NOT cut the transducer lead or any part of the transducer cable. Cutting the transducer cable voids your warranty. The cable cannot be
spliced and connected to any existing (Garmin or non-Garmin) transducer cables.
If the transducer lead is too short, extension cables are available from your Garmin dealer. Coil and secure any excess cable.
