Section 1: Read Me First! 
How this manual can get you out on the water, fast! 
Welcome to the exciting world of digital sonar! We know you're anxious 
to begin finding fish, but we have a favor to ask. Before you grab your 
unit and begin installing it, please give us a moment or two to explain 
how our manual can help you get the best performance from your com-
pact, wide-screen, fish finder. 
First, we want to thank you for buying a Lowrance sonar. Whether 
you're a first time user or a professional fisherman, you'll discover that 
your unit is easy to use, yet capable of handling demanding sonar 
tasks. You won't find another sonar unit with this much power and this 
many features for this price! 
Our goal for this book is to get you on the water fast, with a minimum 
of fuss. Like you, we'd rather spend more time boating or fishing and 
less time reading the manual! 
So, we designed our book so that you don't have to read the whole thing 
from front to back for the information you want. At the start (or end) of 
each segment, we'll tell you what content is coming up next. If it's a 
concept you're already familiar with, we'll show you how and where to 
skip ahead for the next important topic. We've also made it easy to look 
up any tips you may need from time to time. Here's how: 
The manual is organized into 6 sections. This first section is an intro-
duction to the sonar unit. It tells you the basics you need to know be-
fore you can make the unit look below the surface to find some fish. 
Section 2 will help you install your unit and the transducer. We'll also 
tell you about some of the available accessories. 
Section 3 covers Basic Sonar Operation. It will show you how easy it is 
to run your sonar, right out of the box. This section features a one-page 
Sonar Quick Reference. (If you've already jumped ahead and fig-
ured out how to install the unit yourself, and you just can't
 wait 
any longer, turn to the Quick Reference on page 43 and head 
for the water with your sonar unit!)
 
After you've gained some experience with your sonar, you'll want to 
check out Section 4, which discusses more advanced Sonar Options and 
Other Features

When you come to a sonar menu command on the unit's screen, you can 
look it up in the manual by skimming over the table of contents or index, 
just flipping through Section 3 or scanning through the sonar options in 
Section 4.
