Using the Unit for Ice Fishing
1.Clear away snow to expose the ice surface, making sure the surface is smooth and free from excessive air (the ice should be black in color).
IMPORTANT:
“Black Ice”
Cracks, Bubbles,
Voids, Etc
The ice MUST be relatively free from bubbles, cracks, voids, etc (generally referred to as “Black” Ice). If you cannot
obtain readings through the ice, the unit must be placed directly in the water.
2.Place a small amount of liquid water on the ice and set the transducer side of the unit on the water.
Ice Surface
3.If there are any air pockets between the unit and ice, or the water below the ice, the unit will not work properly and will require you to try another spot, or cut a hole in the ice to use.
To Remove From the Frozen Ice:
1. Gently tap the unit at the base with your hand.
2. If it will not come loose, spray a small amount of water on the ice surface around the base and repeat steps (1) and (2) until the transducer is easily removed.
IMPORTANT:
Never use a blunt object to strike the unit as this may cause damage to the sensitive internal electronics.
