INSTALLATION PRECAUTIONS
If you are connecting your G-DEK for the first time or have just reconnected your boat battery and you are experiencing problems with the unit’s operation, we recommend you reset the unit. The reset button is located under the lid to the right of the SD card slot. Gently press the reset button with a paper clip or similar object.
The preset station memories and clock time are retained only while the yellow ‘Memory B+’ lead is connected (see Electrical Wiring and Connections Section). If the yellow ‘Memory B+’ is disconnected or switched off at the master switch or the unit is removed from the vessel, the station memories will be lost and the clock will need to be reset.
LOCATION
The G-DEK remote head can be either gimbal mounted or installed directly to a flat panel in an accessible position near your vessels steering position. GME recommends that the location should be free from direct sunlight and excessive vibration.
INSTALLATION
The G-DEK multimedia hub can be mounted nearby or installed

allow access for connecting your MP3 music source via iPod/ iPhone, USB memory stick, SD card or generic MP3 player.
MOUNTING THE REMOTE HEAD
The G-DEK remote head can be neatly flush mounted on a bulkhead or gimbal mounted using the gimbal brackets supplied. The G-DEK rremote head is supplied with a cabin cover. When the G-DEK is not in use the cabin cover should be fitted to protect it from the elements.
Gimbal Mounting
The gimbal mount can be used to mount the remote head above or below a shelf. It can also be used to mount the remote head on flat surface or vertical bulkhead where flush mounting is not possible due to limited access behind the bulkhead.
