“ICE MODE”, you may find that your Showdown performs better under a wide variety of conditions when in “ICE MODE”.

The best way to find your lure on the Showdown 5.6 screen is to simply drop your lure down to bottom, then reel it up about a foot. You should see a single solid band appear above bottom to signify your lure.
