2.1 Maintenance

Servicing and safety

Raymarine equipment should be serviced only by authorised Rayma-
rineservice technicians. They will ensure that servicing procedures
andreplacement parts used will not affect performance. There are no
user-serviceableparts in any Raymarine product.
Some products generate high voltages, and so never handle the
cables/connectorswhen power is being applied to the equipment.
When powered up, all electrical equipment produces electromag-
neticfields. These can cause adjacent pieces of electrical equipment
tointeract with one another,with a consequent adverse effect on oper-
ation.In order to minimise these effects and enable you to get the best
possibleperformance from your Raymarine equipment, guidelines
aregiven in the installation instru ctions, to enable you to ensure min-
imuminteraction between different items of equipment, i.e. ensure
optimumElectromagnetic C ompatibility (EMC).
Always report any EMC-related problem to your nearest Raymarine
dealer.We use such information to improve our quality standards.
In some installations, it may not be possible to prevent the equipment
frombeing affected by external influences. In general this will not
damagethe equipment but it can lead to spurious resetting action, or
momentarilymay result in faulty operation.

Instrument

Certainatmospheric conditions may cause condensation to form on the
instrumentwindow.This will not harm the instrument and can be cleared
byincreasing the illumin ation setting to Level 3.
Periodicallyclean your ST60 instrument with a soft damp cloth. Do NOT
usechemical and abrasive materials to clean the instrument.

Transducers

Referto the Installation and Maintenance instructio ns supplied with the
transducers.
