Proper transducer installation is key to getting the best performance 

from your new unit.  If the transducer lead is too short, extension cables 
are available from you GARMIN dealer.  DO NOT cut the transducer lead 
or any part of the transducer cable, as this will void your warranty.  The 
cable cannot be spliced and connected to any existing (GARMIN or non-
GARMIN) transducer cables.

Following are some tips and basic installation instructions for the 

optional dual frequency transducer and speed sensor.  Detailed installation 
instructions are provided in the transducer kits.

Dual Frequency Transom Mount Transducer (with depth/temp). 

DO NOT mount the transducer behind strakes, 
struts, fi ttings, water intake or discharge ports, or 
anything that creates air bubbles or causes the 
water to become turbulent.  It is important that 
the transducer be in calm, non-turbulent water for 
optimal performance. 

Do not mount transducer directly in the 
path of the prop.  The transducer can cause
cavitation that may degrade the boat's performance 
and damage the prop.

Make sure that the transducer is
below water level when the boat 
is on plane at high speed

Mount the transducer cable cover
well above the waterline.

Transducer should extend 1/8" below
fiberglass hull or 3/8" below aluminum hull

Apply marine sealant to all
screw threads to prevent water
from seeping into the transom.

Mount the transducer parallel with the bottom.

OK
