Garmin International Inc C02834 Manuel D’Utilisation

®

Failure to follow these warnings and cautions could result in 

personal injury, damage to the vessel, or poor product 

performance.
See the Important Safety and Product Information guide in the 

product box for product warnings and other important 

information.
This device must be installed according to these instructions.
Disconnect the vessel's power supply before beginning to install 

this product.
Before applying power to this product, make sure it has been 

correctly grounded, following the instructions in the guide.

Always wear safety goggles, ear protection, and a dust mask 

when drilling, cutting, or sanding.

When drilling or cutting, always check what is on the opposite 

side of the surface.

You must read all installation instructions before beginning the 

installation. If you experience difficulty during the installation, 

contact FUSION Product Support.

For best results, you should update the software in all FUSION 

devices at the time of installation to ensure compatibility.
Go to 

latest software. Software updates and instructions are available 

on your device product page.

• Phillips screwdriver
• Electric drill
• Drill bit (size varies based on surface material and screws 

used)

• Rotary cutting tool or jigsaw
• Marine sealant (optional)

In high ambient temperatures and after extended use, the 

device enclosure may reach temperatures deemed dangerous 

to touch. As a result, the unit must be installed in a location 

where it cannot be touched during operation.

This device should be mounted in a location that is not exposed 

to extreme temperatures or conditions. The temperature range 

for this device is listed in the product specifications. Extended 

exposure to temperatures exceeding the specified temperature 

range, in storage or operating conditions, may cause device 

failure. Extreme-temperature-induced damage and related 

consequences are not covered by the warranty.

When selecting a mounting location for the black box device, 

observe these considerations.
• The device must be mounted in a location where it is not 

submerged.

• The device must be mounted in a location with adequate 

ventilation where it is not exposed to extreme temperatures.

• The device should be mounted so the cables can be 

connected easily.

• To achieve IPX3 water ingress protection and optimal heat 

sink cooling, the device must be mounted on a vertical 

surface with the connectors pointing downward.

• The device can be mounted on a horizontal surface, but such 

positioning might not achieve IPX3 water ingress protection.

• To avoid interference with a magnetic compass, the device 

should be installed at least 15 cm (5.91 in.) away from a 

compass.

When selecting a mounting location for the remote control, 

observe these considerations.

• The remote control must be mounted in a location where 

there is at least 70 mm (2.75 in.) of clearance behind the 

mounting surface and you can access the controls after it is 

mounted.

• If you need to mount the remote control outside the cabin, it 

must be mounted in a location well above the waterline, 

where it is not submerged.

• If you need to mount the remote control outside the boat, it 

should be mounted in a location where it will not be damaged 

by a docks, pilings, or other pieces of equipment.

If you are mounting the device in fiberglass, when drilling the 

four pilot holes, it is recommended to use a countersink bit to 

drill a clearance counterbore through only the top gel-coat layer. 

This will help to avoid any cracking in the gel-coat layer when 

the screws are tightened.

NOTE: Stainless-steel screws may bind when screwed into 

fiberglass and overtightened. It is recommended to apply an 

anti-seize lubricant to the screws before installing them.
NOTE: Screws are included with the device, but they may not 

be suitable for the mounting surface.
Before you mount the device, you must select a mounting 

location and determine what screws and other mounting 

hardware are needed for the surface.

Place the device in the mounting location and mark the 

location of the pilot holes.

Drill a pilot hole for one corner of the device.

Loosely fasten the device to the mounting surface with one 

corner and examine the other three pilot-hole marks.

Mark new pilot-hole locations if necessary, and remove the 

device from the mounting surface.

Drill the remaining pilot holes.

Secure the device to the mounting location.

At the mounting location, use a 57 mm (2.25 in.) hole saw to 

cut through the mounting surface.

Apply marine sealant around the cutout (optional).

Place the gasket on the back of the remote control.

Feed the attached cable through the cutout.

Place the remote control in the cutout.
