1.Press MENUMENU↓ to SET KEEL OFFSETENT.

2.The Keel Offset dialog box appears. Press ↓ to change the plus (+) sign to a minus (–) sign.

3.Press → to the first number, then press ↑ to change the number to 3

4.Press → to the second number, then press ↑ to change the number to 5, then press EXIT. The depth indicators now accurately show the depth of water beneath the keel.

NOTE:

If knowing the exact depth of water beneath the keel is less impor- tant, you can calibrate the depth indicators so that they show the ac- tual water depth from surface to bottom. To do this, first measure the distance from the face of the transducer up to the surface (the water line on the boat). In this example, we will use 1.5 feet. This will be en- tered as a positive 1.5 feet, which makes the depth indicators perform as if the transducer's higher in the water than it really is.
