Your Fishfinder uses Side Imaging®
455kHz 455kHz
sonar to provide a wide yet precise
survey of a large area of water,

including detailed bottom

topography and fish-attracting
60°
83kHz
structure orientation. The Side
180 Degree Total Coverage
Imaging® transducer returns are
processed into an image similar to
an aerial photograph.
Typically, the Side Imaging® sonar
can search an area that is 240 feet
wide to each side, 480 feet total
coverage, with a depth limitation
of 100 feet. See What's on
the Side Imaging® Display and
Understanding the Side Imaging®
Display for more information.
The Side Imaging® transducer also
provides Down Imaging displays on
the screen, with the same depth
limitation of 100 feet. See What's
on the Down Imaging® Display for
more information.
Depth capability is affected by such
factors as boat speed, wave action,
bottom hardness, water conditions,
and transducer installation.
