operate safe (typically referred to as your vessel's "Draft")
For Example: If your boat's draft is 3 feet, the Keel Offset feature should be set
to 3 feet. The device will then subtract 3 feet from the actual depth reading and
display this figure as the depth. If the water depth is 5 feet and the Keel Offset is
set to 3 feet, the depth will be displayed as 2 feet, indicating to the operator that
there is 2 feet of safe operating water.
The maximum Keel Offset setting is 20 FT (6.1 M), and can be set in .1 (1/10th)
Feet or Meter increments. The unit will read "---" when a negative value occurs
due to the Keel Offset subtraction.
If you are unsure of the Draft of your vessel, please consult with the
vessel's manufacturer before setting the Keel Offset. An improper
Keel Offset setting can cause accidentally grounding of the vessel
and may cause severe damage to the vessel and its passengers.

To set the Keel Offset:

1. Press and hold the "UP" and "DOWN" keys
until the K/O indicator begins to blink.
(approximately 6 seconds).
2. Release the Keys.
3. Press the "UP" key to increase the Keel Offset
value. Press the "DOWN" key to reduce the
value.
4. The display will return to the normal operation
mode after five seconds if no keys are pressed.
5. "K/O" will remain illuminated in the top left hand
corner indicating that the depth readings are
adjusted to the Keel Offset setting.
