This lets you see small detail, at the same time enlarging all echoes that appear on the screen. The unit doesn’t track the bottom in the manual mode, and the adjustments are slightly different.

To zoom the display, first press the MENU key until the RANGE/ZOOM menu appears as shown at right. Now press the down arrow key. This switches the unit into the zoom mode. A new menu immediately appears as shown below.
