To successfully operate your Fishfinder 400C, you must properly 

install the fishfinder and all of its related parts. Compare the contents 

of this package with the packing list on the box. If any pieces are 

missing, contact your Garmin dealer immediately. Before you begin 

the installation:

•  Read and follow the instructions to install the unit.
•  Gather the appropriate fasteners and tools.
•  Verify that all cables can reach the unit mounting location and 

the transducer.

•  Wear safety goggles and a dust mask when drilling, cutting, or 

sanding.

1  Select a location for the fishfinder.
2.  Mount the fishfinder.
3.  Install the transducer.
4.  Install the wiring harness.
5.  Test the installation.

Consider the following when you select an installation location: 

•  Provides optimal viewing as you operate your vessel.
•  Allows easy access to the unit’s keypad.
•  Is strong enough to support the weight of the fishfinder and 

protect it from excessive vibration or shock.

•  Allows room for the routing and connection of the power/data 

and transducer cables. There should be at least a 3-inch (8 cm) 

clearance behind the case. 

DO NOT mount the unit in an area that is exposed to extreme 

temperature conditions.

  NOtE: The temperature range for the Fishfinder 400C is 5°F 

to 131°F (-15°C to 55°C). Extended exposure to temperatures 

exceeding this range (in storage or operating conditions) may 

cause failure of the LCD screen. This type of failure and related 

consequences are NOT covered by the manufacturer’s limited 
warranty.
