Safety Instructions for the Installer
WARNING
Turn off the power at the switchboard
before beginning the installation.
Fire or electrical shock can result if the
power is left on.
Be sure no water leaks in at the trans-
ducer or sensor mounting location.
Water leakage can sink the vessel. Also
confirm that the transducer and sensor
will not loosen by ship's vibration. The
installer of the equipment is solely
responsible for the proper installation of
the equipment. FURUNO will assume no
responsibility for any damage associated
with improper installation.
Use the specified power cable.
Use of other power cable may result in
fire.
CAUTION
Do not install the equipment where
air bubbles and noise are present.
Performance will be affected.
The following are guidelines for
handling of the transducer cable.
- Keep fuels and oils away from the
cable.
- Locate it in a safe place.
- Do no paint the cable.
The sheath of the cable is made of
chloroprene rubber (or polychloride vinyl).
For this reason do not paint the cable.
Do not turn on the equipment with the
transducer out of water.
The transducer may be damaged.
