Deep Mode
To activate the 300' Deep water ranges: Turn gain setting to "1" press in
and turn the unit on at the same time. This essentially triples the standard
depth ranges. Now the display will start out at the 0-30 foot range, the x2
is 0-60, the x3 is 0-90, the x4 is 0-120, the x8 is 0-240 and the x10 setting
is a 0-300 foot display on the dial.
Turning the unit OFF will revert the ranges back to normal.
KNOW YOUR DEPTH! The 0-10 foot scale allows for an easy system
to get your depth reading. If the signal says your bottom is at 6, you
then simply look to see where your Range Control is set to and do the
simple math. If you are on the x3 setting, then it is 6x3, or 18 feet it's
that simple!
IMPORTANT
Zoom should be activated only when the transducer is submerged. If the
zoom is activated before the transducer is placed in the water, such as
when moving from ice fishing hole to hole while the zoom is operating, the
bottom may not line up with the zero mark on the zoom scale correctly.
If this happens, simply switch the flasher to Normal Mode and then back
to Zoom to reset the feature.

the bottom up on the left. When
you switch to Auto Zoom Mode,
the flasher automatically selects
the magnified bottom view for
you, provided the flasher is set to a
depth range in which the bottom is
in view. There are two Auto Zoom
modes; 6 foot and twelve foot.
The Zoom scale reads in
the opposite direction as the
full view scale. The bottom will
always be at the 7 O'clock position.
Objects will appear above this point.
You can only see objects as far off the bottom
as the zoom setting permits, either 6 feet or 12
feet. Objects above this level will only appear on the
right side which show the entire water column.

THE RIGHT HALF represents the entire
water column, from the transducer to the
bottom. Read the depth using
the inner white scale.
You interpret the depth by
multiplying the indicated
value on the white scale by
the multiplying factor here.
