Introduction
About this Manual
• This manual is a reference guide for installing a Lowrance HDS System.
• The information in this manual at the time of printing is correct to the best of our
knowledge. Navico can not be liable for any inaccuracies or missing information.
• Due to the constant improvement of Navico’s products. Navico cannot be liable for

Important Safety and Warning Information
Please read carefully before use.
When navigating the vessel, use the Lowrance HDS system only as a
navigational aid. Proper navigation of the vessel is the sole responsibility of the
vessel operator.
The electronic chart used by the HDS System is an aid to navigation only and
is designed to supplement, not replace, ofcial government charts. Only ofcial
government charts supplemented by notices to mariners contain the information
required for safe and prudent navigation. Always supplement the electronic
information provided by the Lowrance HDS with other plotting sources such
as observations, depth soundings, radar and hand compass bearings. Should the
information not agree, the discrepancy must be resolved before proceeding any
further.
Never operate the HDS in Simulate Mode while you are underway. It is the
user’s responsibility to ensure that Simulate Mode is used only in safe situations
such as when you are moored in a marina.
The Global Positioning System (GPS) is operated by the US Government which
is solely responsible for its operation, accuracy and maintenance. The GPS
system is subject to changes which could affect the accuracy and performance
of all GPS equipment anywhere in the world.
The accuracy of the Sonar depth display can be limited by many factors,
including the type of transducer, the location of the transducer, and water
conditions. Ensure that the transducer is installed correctly and the Sonar is used
correctly.
HDS units intended for sale and operation in the America’s region DO NOT
include full functionality outside of the America’s, dened as 30 degrees west
longitude and 180 degrees west longitude. Units are restricted to operate in
English language only with imperial (non-metric) units only.
For full use around the globe an International unit must be purchased from
outside of the America’s region.

Display Installation
Mounting location
Choose the mounting locations carefully before you drill or cut. The display should be
mounted so that the operator can easily use the controls and clearly see the display screen.
Be sure to leave a direct path for all of the cables. The display screen is high-contrast and antireective, and is viewable in direct sunlight, but for best results install the display out of direct
sunlight. The chosen location should have minimal glare from windows or bright objects.
Ensure that any holes cut are in a safe position and will not weaken the boat’s structure. If in
doubt, consult a qualied marine electronics installer.
The mounting location should be at least 100 mm (4”) away from the compass, at least 300
mm (12”) away from any radio transmitter and at least 1.2 m (4 ft) away from any antenna.
Before cutting a hole in a panel, make sure that there are no hidden electrical wires or other
parts behind the panel.
Do not mount any part where it could be used as a hand hold, where it might be submerged or
where it will interfere with the operation, launching or retrieving of the boat.
If bracket mounting, chose a at area where the display will not be subjected to excessive
vibration.
Leave sufcient clearance space behind the display to connect all relevant cables.
Good ventilation is required behind the mounting panel. Poor ventilation may cause the
display to overheat. The display is designed to operate in temperatures from -15° C to +55° C
(+5° F to +131° F).
For overall width and height requirements, please see the drawings at the back of this manual.

Bezel Removal
1: To removing the bezel from the 5 and 7-inch models the card slot door must be open
2: To remove the bezel use a at head screwdriver.
3: Insert screwdriver into the bezel release slots and pry out and away from the unit. The
bottom of the bezel will release from the unit. Push up to release the top bezel catches.
For 8 and 10-inch models
1: While pulling the lower left or right corner of the bezel toward the outside of the unit
2: Push up towards the top of the unit to release the top bezel catches.
Note: All models have four adhesive strips behind the bezel. These strips should be kept free
of dust and other foreign material when the bezel is not attached to the unit.
10
Panel Mount
1: Attach the ush mounting template
to the selected mounting position
using adhesive tape.
3: Use a hole saw to cut the four corner
radius
2: Drill pilot holes for the four hole saw
cuts and for the four self tapping
screws used to secure the display.
4: Cut along the dotted line and remove
the shaded area.
5: Connect all cables to the rear of
the unit before placing the unit
into the console. Secure using the four
provided #6-20 x 1-1/2” screws
6: To nish off the installation rmly
clip the front bezel in place
11
Bracket Mount
An alternative to ush mounting the HDS display is to bracket mount the unit. This method
has the advantage that the display can be easily removed when not in use and may be tilted to
achieve the best possible viewing angle.
1: Loosely screw securing knobs to the
Display unit.
3: Make sure the display can be
adjusted to the correct angle without
interfering with the surrounding.
Allow space for cables attached to
the rear of the unit
2: Temporarily mount the display unit
in the bracket
4: Remove the display unit and use the
mounting bracket as a template to
mark the four positions of the screw
holes and optional center cable hole.
5: Drill a pilot hole for the four screws
and an optional hole large enough
for the cables to emerge from.
6: Secure the bracket to the surface
7: Connect the cables.
12
8: Slide the display into the mounting
bracket and secure in place with the
bracket knobs.
9: Attach the bezel. Firmly clip the
front bezel in place.
13
Transducer Installation
Recommended Tools and Supplies
Tools and Supplies (not included)
If you plan to route the transducer cable through the transom, you will need either a 1” drill
bit or a 5/8” drill bit depending on the size of the transducer cable connector. Each transom
mount requires a high quality, marine grade above- or below-waterline sealant/adhesive
compound. The following installations also call for these recommended tools and supplies.
One-piece Bracket Transom Installation
Tools: two adjustable wrenches or socket wrench, drill, #29 (0.136”) drill bit, screwdriver.
Supplies: none.
Two-piece Bracket Transom Installation
Tools: two adjustable wrenches or socket wrench, drill, #20 (0.161”) drill bit, screwdriver.
Supplies: four, 1” long, #12 stainless steel wood screws.
TMB-S Bracket Trolling Motor Installation
Tools: two adjustable wrenches or socket wrench, screwdriver. Supplies: plastic cable ties.
Skimmer Transducer Shoot-through Hull Installation
Supplies: alcohol wipes, 60 and 160 grit sandpaper, and marine grade above- or below-
waterline epoxy adhesive.
Pod Transducer Shoot-through Hull Installation
Supplies: alcohol wipes, 60 and 160 grit sandpaper, and marine grade above- or below-
waterline epoxy adhesive.
14
Skimmer Installation Instructions
Transducer location and installation is one of the most critical steps in sonar installation.
Select a transducer location
To function properly the Skimmer transducer must be in the water at all times and in a
location that has a smooth ow of water when the boat is moving.
Good location
Poor location
Good location
Poor location
Note: Aluminum boats with strakes or ribs on the hull can create large amounts of
turbulence at higher speeds. A good transducer location on these types of boats is between the
ribs closest to the engine.
If the transducer is not placed in a smooth ow of water, interference caused by bubbles and
turbulence may show on-screen in the form of random lines or dots. The unit also could lose
bottom signal when the boat is on plane.
Note: When mounting the transducer, make sure it does not interfere with the hauling of the
boat.
Do not mount the transducer
closer than approximately one
foot from the engine’s lower
unit. This will prevent cavitation
interference from the prop.
