Low Battery Alarm

Low B attery Ala rm sounds when th e input battery voltage is equal to or less than the menu setting. The battery alarm will only sound for the battery that is connected to the Fishfinder. The Low Battery Alarm s hould be s et to warn y ou when the battery voltage drops below the safety margin that you have determined.

1.Highlight Low Battery Alarm on the Alarms main menu.

2.Press the LEFT or RIGHT Cursor keys to change the Low Battery Alarm setting. (Off, 8.5V - 13.5V, Default = Off)
