Depth Alarm; Fish Alarm - Humminbird Wide Optic Operation Manual

Depth Alarm

The Wide Optic contains an audible alarm to warn you of shallow water depths. The alarm is adjustable
from 2' to 99' of depth. When the alarm is enabled, an audible alarm is sounded if the water beneath the
boat is equal to or less than the selected alarm depth. Upon activation, the alarm sounds continuously for
about 5 seconds, and then intermittently to remind you that you are still in shallow water.
To enable Depth Alarm, press MENU repeatedly until the Depth Alarm menu is on-screen. The Factory
Setting is "Off". Use the DOWN ARROW to highlight On. The menu will expand to show the current Depth
Alarm setting. Use the UP or DOWN ARROW to set the desired depth for alarm activation.
Once the menu times out, the Depth Alarm is enabled. To further adjust the setting, simply press the UP
or DOWN ARROW. The menu appears briefly to indicate the setting. If the alarm is sounding and you
want to disable it, use the MENU button to bring the Depth Alarm menu on-screen, and the UP ARROW
to highlight "Off".
