(http://www.eiae.org/) for the correct method of disposal. How to discard a used battery Some FURUNO products have a battery(ies). To see if your product has a battery, see the chapter on Maintenance. Follow the instructions below if a battery is used. Tape the + and - terminals of battery before disposal to prevent fire, heat generation caused by short circuit.
A warning label is attached to the processor unit. Do not remove the label. If the label is missing or No one navigation device should ever damaged, contact a FURUNO agent or dealer be solely replied upon for the about replacement.
FURUNO Electric Company thanks you for purchasing the FURUNO SC-110 THD Satellite Compass. (Hereafter, for sake of brevity, we refer to SC-110 as Satellite Compass.) We are confident you will discover why the FURUNO name has become synonymous with quality and reliability.

INSTALLATION Mounting Considerations 1.1.1 Antenna unit General Keep the length of the antenna cable in mind when selecting a mounting location. Installing the antenna above superstructures The antenna must be mounted above all other structures on the vessel to obtain an unobstructed view of the satellites regardless of vessel heading. Failure to do so will cause shadows and multipath reflection problems.
Page 14
1. INSTALLATION The horizontal separation between the antenna and masts must be as follows: Mast diameter Separation distance (minimum) 10 cm 1.5 m 30 cm ° ° SC-series Antenna ° Less than 10 Mast, etc. Separation degrees Keep the length of antenna cable in mind when selecting a mounting location. The cable comes in lengths of 15 meters (standard supply), or 30 m or 50 m (optional lengths).
1. INSTALLATION Location influenced Radar Antenna by reflected wave. Reception blocked by mast. SC-series Antenna Bridge Example of antenna installed below superstructures 1.1.2 Display unit, processor unit Choose a location where vibration and shock are minimal. Install the units well away from locations subject to rain and water splash. Locate the units away from air conditioner vents.
1. INSTALLATION Installing the Antenna Unit Note: “Bird-repellent fixtures” may be attached to each antenna element and the center cover to prevent birds from alighting on them. If it is more convenient to attach them before fixing the antenna unit to the mounting location, do step 7 before fixing the antenna unit.

This equipment contains complex modules in which fault diagnosis and repair down to component level are not practical (IMO A.694(17)/8.3.1. Only some discrete components are used. FURUNO Electric Co., Ltd. believes identifying these components is of no value for shipboard maintenance; therefore, they are not listed in the manual. Major modules can be located on the parts location photo on this page.
