INSTRUCTIONS

Important Safety Information

WARNING

Failure to follow these warnings, cautions, and notices could result in personal injury, damage to the vessel or device, or poor product performance.

See the Important Safety and Product Information guide in the product box for product warnings and other important information.

When connecting the power cable, do not remove the in-line fuse holder. To prevent the possibility of injury or product damage caused by fire or overheating, the appropriate fuse must be in place as indicated in the product specifications. In addition, connecting the power cable without the appropriate fuse in place voids the product warranty.

CAUTION

Always wear safety goggles, ear protection, and a dust mask when drilling, cutting, or sanding.

To avoid possible personal injury or damage to the device and vessel, disconnect the vessel's power supply before beginning to install the device.

To avoid possible personal injury or damage to the device or vessel, before applying power to the device, make sure that it has been properly grounded, following the instructions in the guide.

NOTICE

For the best possible performance, the device must be installed according to these instructions.

When drilling or cutting, always check what is on the opposite side of the surface to avoid damaging the vessel.

Read all installation instructions before proceeding with the installation. If you experience difficulty during the installation, contact Garmin® Product Support.

Mounting Considerations

NOTICE

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, you should observe these considerations.

•The location should provide optimal viewing as you operate your boat.

•The location should allow for easy access to all device interfaces, such as the keypad, touchscreen, and card reader, if applicable.

•The location must be strong enough to support the weight of the device and protect it from excessive vibration or shock.

•To avoid interference with a magnetic compass, the device should not be installed closer to a compass than the compass-safe distance value listed in the product specifications.

•The location must allow room for the routing and connection of all cables.

•The location must not be a flat, horizontal surface. The location should be in a vertical angle.

The location and viewing angle should be tested before you install the device. High viewing angles from above and below the display may result in a poor image.

Bail Mounting the Device

NOTICE

If you are mounting the bracket on fiberglass with screws, 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 cracking in the gel-coat layer when the screws are tightened.

You can use a bail mount bracket (not included) to bail mount the device on a flat surface.

1Using the bail-mount bracket as a template, mark the pilot holes.

2 Drill the pilot holes.

3Using appropriate mounting screws (not included), secure the bail-mount bracket to the mounting surface.

4 Install the bail-mount knobs on the sides of the device.

5Place the device in the bail-mount bracket and tighten the bail-mount knobs.

Flush Mounting the Device

NOTICE

Be careful when cutting the hole to flush mount the device. There is only a small amount of clearance between the case and the mounting holes, and cutting the hole too large could compromise the stability of the device after it is mounted.

The included template and hardware can be used to flush mount the device in your dashboard.

1Trim the template, and make sure it fits in the location where you want to mount the device.

2 Secure the template to the mounting location.

3Using a 14 mm (9/16 in.) drill bit, drill one or more of the holes inside the corners of the solid line on the template to prepare the mounting surface for cutting.

4Using a jigsaw or a rotary tool, cut the mounting surface along the inside line on the template.

5 Place the device in the cutout to test the fit.

6If necessary, use a file and sandpaper to refine the size of the cutout.

7Use a pry tool, such as a flat piece of plastic or a screwdriver, to carefully pry up the corners of the trim caps, slide the pry tool to the center, and remove the trim caps.

NOTICE

Use a plastic pry tool when possible. Using a metal pry tool such as a screwdriver can damage the trim caps and the device.

8After the device fits correctly in the cutout, ensure the

mounting holes on the device line up with the larger 6 mm (1/4 in.) holes on the template.

9If the mounting holes on the device do not line up, mark the new hole locations.

10Select an option:

•If you are using a nut plate, drill a 6 mm (1/4 in.) hole in the larger hole location.

•If you are not using a nut plate, drill 3.2 mm (1/8 in.) holes in the larger hole locations.

11Starting in one corner of the template, place a nut plate over the larger hole drilled in the previous step.

If you are using a nut plate, the smaller hole on the nut plate should line up with the smaller hole on the template.

12If the smaller hole on the nut plate does not line up with the smaller hole on the template, mark the new hole location.

13If you are using a nut plate, drill a 3.6 mm (9/64 in.) hole in the smaller hole location.

14Repeat to verify placement of the remaining nut plates and holes on the template.

15Remove the template from the mounting surface.

16Starting in one corner of the mounting location, place a nut plate on the back of the mounting surface, lining up the large and small holes.

The raised portion of the nut plate should fit into the larger hole.

17Secure the nut plates to the mounting surface by fastening the included M3 screws through the smaller 3.6 mm (9/64 in.) holes.

18Install the foam gasket on the back of the device.

The pieces of the foam gasket have adhesive on the back. Make sure you remove the protective liner before installing them on the device.

19If you will not have access to the back of the device after you mount it, connect all necessary cables to the device before placing it into the cutout.

NOTICE

To prevent corrosion of the metal contacts, cover unused connectors with the attached weather caps.

20Apply marine sealant between the mounting surface and the device to properly seal and prevent leakage behind the dashboard.

21If you will have access to the back of the device, apply marine sealant around the cutout.

22Place the device into the cutout.

23Secure the device to the mounting surface using the included M4 screws .

24Wipe away all excess marine sealant.

25Install the trim caps by snapping them in place around the edges of the device.
