•Anti-spook IR LED lighting that
is not visible by sh or people.
A fully charged battery can operate the Aqua-Vu continuously for up to 10 hours. For
longer viewing time the unit may be powered by a larger external 12-volt battery
using one of the following:
•Power cord with cigarette adapter (included)
•Power cord with alligator clips (purchased separately, see accessories)
Follow these simple rules for prolonged battery life and efcient use of your Aqua-Vu
Underwater Viewing System:
•Fully charge the battery as soon as possible after purchase.
•Recharging is recommended after every use. When not in use, recharge monthly.
•Store battery between 30 and 70 degrees F. Service life is shortened by temperatures
above 80° and below 0° F.
•Fasten battery securely in its compartment and minimize shock to the battery.
•Charge battery according to proper procedures. Continuous overcharging or under-
charging is detrimental.
The battery charger (included) will charge the battery from very low (10 volts) to
fully charged in about 24 hours. A voltmeter helps determine charge in the battery.
Immediately after charging, a voltmeter might read 14 volts or more. Peak performance
often occurs at 13 to 13.5 volts. Without a voltmeter, a general rule is to charge the
battery for a minimum of 12 hours but no more than 24 hours.

In most waters, sh relate to bottom structure. So, while drifting or slow-trolling, you’ll
need to guide the camera over the ups and downs of bottom contours. You will quickly
learn how to “swim” the camera over bottom terrain. With cable in hand, simply raise or
lower the camera, paying out more or less cable, depending on depth and boat speed. As
you move along, you should see on your monitor screen a continous picture of the passing
bottom and the sh-holding zone just above it.
To our knowledge there are no restrictions that
regulate the use of Aqua-Vu underwater viewing
systems. Aqua-Vu is an approved pre-shing tool in
B.A.S.S. and for other tournament trails across the
