e depth nder will display depths of 2-199 feet, 1-92
meters, or 1-54 fathoms. To accommodate greater
depths to be displayed in the feet mode ( ), the depth
sounder will automatically change to the fathoms (f)
mode and continue to display depths to around 54
fathoms. When the depth becomes larger than 200
feet, the display will return to the feet mode. Limits on
depth will vary depending on transducers and bottom

If the reading is less than 19.9 feet, meters, or fathoms,
