Chapter 1: Important information
Safety notices
Warning: Product installation and
operation
This product must be installed and operated in
accordance with the instructions provided. Failure to
do so could result in personal injury, damage to your
vessel and/or poor product performance.
Warning: Potential ignition source
This product is NOT approved for use in
hazardous/flammable atmospheres. Do NOT install in
a hazardous/flammable atmosphere (such as in an
engine room or near fuel tanks).
Warning: High voltage
This product contains high voltage. Adjustments
require specialized service procedures and tools only
available to qualified service technicians. There are no
user serviceable parts or adjustments. The operator
should never remove the cover or attempt to service
the product.
Warning: Positive ground systems
Do not connect this unit to a system which has positive
grounding.
Warning: Switch off power supply
Ensure the vessel's power supply is switched OFF
before starting to install this product. Do NOT connect
or disconnect equipment with the power switched on,
unless instructed in this document.
Caution: Transducer cable
Do NOT cut, shorten, splice the transducer cable or
remove the connector. If the cable is cut, it cannot be
repaired. Cutting the cable will also void the warranty.
Caution: Power supply protection
When installing this product ensure the power source
is adequately protected by means of a suitably-rated
fuse or automatic circuit breaker.
Caution: Service and maintenance
This product contains no user serviceable
components. Please refer all maintenance and repair
to authorized Raymarine dealers. Unauthorized repair
may affect your warranty.
Caution: Cleaning
When cleaning this product:
• Do NOT wipe the display screen with a dry cloth, as
this could scratch the screen coating.
• Do NOT use abrasive, or acid or ammonia based
products.
• Do NOT use a jet wash.
Important information
Caution: Condensation
Certain atmospheric conditions may cause a small
amount of condensation to form on the unit's window.
This will not damage the unit and will clear after the
unit has been switched on for a short period.
Water ingress
Water ingress disclaimer
Although the waterproof rating capacity of this product meets the
IPX6 standard, water intrusion and subsequent equipment failure
may occur if the product is subjected to commercial high-pressure
washing. Raymarine will not warrant products subjected to
high-pressure washing.
Disclaimer
Raymarine does not warrant that this product is error-free or that it
is compatible with products manufactured by any person or entity
other than Raymarine.
Raymarine is not responsible for damages or injuries caused by
your use or inability to use the product, by the interaction of the
product with products manufactured by others, or by errors in
information utilized by the product supplied by third parties.
EMC installation guidelines
Raymarine equipment and accessories conform to the appropriate
Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC) regulations, to minimize
electromagnetic interference between equipment and minimize the
effect such interference could have on the performance of your
system
Correct installation is required to ensure that EMC performance is
not compromised.
For optimum EMC performance we recommend that wherever
possible:
• Raymarine equipment and cables connected to it are:
– At least 1 m (3 ft) from any equipment transmitting or cables
carrying radio signals e.g. VHF radios, cables and antennas.
In the case of SSB radios, the distance should be increased
to 7 ft (2 m).
– More than 2 m (7 ft) from the path of a radar beam. A radar
beam can normally be assumed to spread 20 degrees above
and below the radiating element.
• The product is supplied from a separate battery from that used
for engine start. This is important to prevent erratic behavior
and data loss which can occur if the engine start does not have
a separate battery.
• Raymarine specified cables are used.
• Cables are not cut or extended, unless doing so is detailed in
the installation manual.
Note: Where constraints on the installation prevent any of
the above recommendations, always ensure the maximum
possible separation between different items of electrical
equipment, to provide the best conditions for EMC performance
throughout the installation
Suppression ferrites
Raymarine cables may be fitted with suppression ferrites. These
are important for correct EMC performance. If a ferrite has to be
removed for any purpose (e.g. installation or maintenance), it must
be replaced in the original position before the product is used.
Use only ferrites of the correct type, supplied by Raymarine
authorized dealers.
