Export Settings and Navigation Data

Before the control head software is updated or restored to system defaults, it is important to
back up your control head data files (including navigation data and screen snapshots) and
menu settings to an SD or microSD card.
WARNING! Humminbird is not responsible for the loss of data files (waypoints, routes, tracks,
groups, snapshots, recordings, etc.) that may occur due to direct or indirect damage to the
unit's hardware or software. It is important to back up your control head's data files periodically.
Data files should also be saved to your computer before restoring the unit's defaults or updating
the software.
WARNING! Do NOT leave the control head SD or microSD card slot cover open. The slot cover
should always be closed to prevent water damage to the unit.
NOTE: See your control head operations manual for more information about exporting settings
and navigation data.
