Important

As with all other advanced instruments, there are a few important things that you must be
aware of.
When the echo sounder is not used
When you do not use the ES70, switch off the display and the computer. You may switch
of the transceiver too.
When docking your vessel
It is very important that no one tries to use the ES70 when the vessel is in dry dock. If
the transducer is activated when out of water it may be damaged beyond repair. To
ensure that this can not happen, remove the power supply to the either the computer or
the transceiver - or both! You may also remove circuit breakers. Do this before the
vessel is placed in the dry dock!
