Garmin fishfinder 300c Manuale Utente

  NOTE: Although it is possible to perform some checks with the boat on a trailer, the boat should be in the water to properly test the installation. 

Press and hold the   POWER key until the Fishfinder 300C beeps. Use ROCKER and SELECT to highlight and select menu items on the 

Fishfinder 300C.
The first time you turn your Fishfinder 300C on, you must configure a series of initial settings.

1.

Language—select the on-screen language.

2.

Units—select

3.

Color Scheme—select

or

as the background on sonar screens.

4.  Select

to return to the Home screen.

The Home screen appears after you select your configuration options.

  NOTE: If the transducer is not detected, a “Transducer Disconnected, Sonar Turned Off” message appears.

The transducer must be in the water to work properly. You cannot get a depth or distance reading when the transducer is out of the water. 
When you place your boat in the water, check for leaks around any screw holes that were added below the water line. Do not leave your boat in 

the water for an extended period of time without checking for leaks.

1. Begin testing the installation at a slow speed. If the sonar appears to be working properly, gradually increase boat speed while observing

sonar operation. If the sonar signal is suddenly lost, or the bottom return is severely degraded, note the speed at which this occurs.

2.  Return the boat to the speed at which the signal was lost. Make moderate turns in both directions to see if the signal improves.
3.  If the signal strength improves while turning, adjust the transducer so that it extends another 1/8" (3 mm) below the transom of the boat. It

might take several adjustments to eliminate the degradation.

4. If the signal does not improve, you might have to move the transducer to a different location.

  NOTE: When adjusting the depth of the transducer, make the adjustments in small increments. Placing the transducer too deep can adversely affect 

boat performance and put the transducer at greater risk of striking underwater objects.
