SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Electr nic charts displayed by the chart pl tter are believed t be
accurate and reliable, but they are n t intended t replace fficial
charts which sh uld remain y ur main reference f r all the matters
related t the executi n f a safe navigati n. F r this reas n we w uld like t
remind y u that y u are required t carry n b ard and use the fficially published
and appr ved nautical chart.
Please read thr ugh this manual bef re the first perati n. If y u have any
questi ns, please c ntact the cust mer service r y ur l cal dealer r distribut r
Extensive exp sure t heat may result in damage t the chart pl tter.
C nnecti n t the p wer s urce with reversed p larity will damage the chart
pl tter severely. This damage is n t c vered by the warranty.
D n t disassemble. The chart pl tter c ntains danger us high v ltage circuits
which nly experienced technicians must handle
Exp sure f the display t UV rays may sh rten the life f the liquid crystals used
in y u pl tter. This limitati n is due t the current techn l gy f the LCD display.
Av id verheating which may cause l ss f c ntrast and, in extreme case, a
darkening f the screen. Pr blems which ccur fr m ver heating are reversible
when temperature decreases.
Screen Cleaning Precautions
Cleaning y ur chart pl tter screen is a very imp rtant perati n and must be d ne
carefully. The f ll wing is the cleaning pr cedure.
Y u use a tissue r lens tissue and a cleaning spray c ntaining ls pr pan l (a

2-1 Mounting the Unit
The AdvanSea is supplied with patented quick release bracket. Y u can ch se a meth d f
installati n acc rding t y ur preference.
2-1-1 Bracket Mounting
Bef re installing ensure the area the bracket is m unted t is str ng en ugh t supp rt the
weight f the GPS chart pl tter. After the l cati n is f und, attach the m unting base t the
area using the supplied hardware.
Mounting the display Unit:
1 H ld the display unit and find a gr ve
j int between the display unit and bracket.
2 Gently push the display unit int the
gr ve f bracket; push the display unit as
far as it can g .
Removing the display unit:
1 Turn the unit ff
2 Push the t p side f bracket ut.
3 Pull the display unit ut.
Note
The AdvanSea chart pl tter with internal GPS
antenna is designed t be bracket m unting and
flush m unting. H wever, if y u flush m unt inside f
y ur b at, GPS perf rmance can be reduced.
