Section 1: Introduction; Models Covered - Lowrance 988-0161-011 Instruction Manual

Section 1: Introduction

Thank you for buying a Lowrance Radar with the RIM 100 radar inter-
face module. Your radar consists of three main components: the radar
scanner unit (antenna), your display unit (sold separately) and the RIM
100 radar interface module which connects the scanner and display units.
WARNING:
Radar radiation can be harmful to you and bystanders.
Radar misuse or misunderstanding radar operation
could lead to a collision, which could result in property
damage, personal injury or death.
You must be familiar with the procedures and all warn-
ings and cautions described in the installation and op-
eration manuals in order to operate your radar safely
and effectively.
We know you're eager to begin using your radar, but first, we want you to
take note of the three instruction manuals you need to read to get started.
First is the Read Me! Insert for Radar Display Unit Software Update
(part number 988-0161-022). It tells you how use the memory card in
your package to update your display unit software to make it radar-
ready. (For your convenience, this information is also repeated below.)
Second is the Radar and RIM 100 Installation Manual (part number
988-0161-001). It tells you how to install your radar's hardware.
Third is this Radar Operation Manual (part number 988-0161-011).
After installing the radar scanner unit, the RIM 100 and the new dis-
play software, you need to read this manual to learn how your display
unit and radar antenna work together.
To get the highest level of performance from your radar, it is a good
idea to keep this manual and your display unit's sonar or GPS instruc-
tion manual handy for reference.
