Servicing and safety
•Raymarine equipment should be serviced only by authorised Rayma- rine service technicians. They will ensure that servicing procedures and replacement parts used will not affect performance. There are no
•Some products generate high voltages, and so never handle the cables/connectors when power is being applied to the equipment.
•When powered up, all electrical equipment produces electromag- netic fields. These can cause adjacent pieces of electrical equipment to interact with one another, with a consequent adverse effect on oper- ation. In order to minimise these effects and enable you to get the best possible performance from your Raymarine equipment, guidelines are given in the installation instructions, to enable you to ensure min- imum interaction between different items of equipment, i.e. ensure optimum Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC).
•Always report any
•In some installations, it may not be possible to prevent the equipment from being affected by external influences. In general this will not damage the equipment but it can lead to spurious resetting action, or momentarily may result in faulty operation.
Instrument
Certain atmospheric conditions may cause condensation to form on the instrument window. This will not harm the instrument and can be cleared by increasing the illumination setting to Level 3.
Periodically clean your ST60 instrument with a soft damp cloth. Do NOT use chemical and abrasive materials to clean the instrument.
Transducers
Refer to the Installation and Maintenance instructions supplied with the transducers.
