board if water leaks into the equipment or smoke
or fire is coming from the equipment.
Failure to turn off the equipment can cause fire or
electrical shock.
Do not open the equipment.
Only qualified persons can work inside the equipment.
The fish finder picture is not refreshed when the
picture advance setting is “OFF”.
Do not steer the boat according to the depth indication
in this state, to prevent grounding and damage to boat
or crew.

FOREWORD
A Word to the Owner
Congratulations on your choice of the Multi-Function Display SMD7/SMD9. We are confident you
will see why the SUZUKI name has become synonymous with quality and reliability.
This equipment is designed and constructed to meet the rigorous demands of the marine environ-
ment. However, no machine can perform its intended function unless operated and maintained
properly. Please carefully read and follow the recommended procedures for operation and main-
tenance.
We would appreciate hearing from you, the end user, about whether we are achieving our purpos-
es.
Thank you for considering and purchasing SUZUKI equipment.
About the eGuide
• The eGuide provides abbreviated operating procedures for the SMD7/SMD9. Text appears at
the center of the screen. The table of contents appears on the left panel. The back button (“<“)
at the top left corner goes to the previously viewed screen.
• The names of menu items and on-screen indications appear in brackets. For example, the “Set-
tings menu” is shown as “[Settings] menu”.
• The words “tap” and “select” are interchangeable.
• In some procedures, the step-by-step format is replaced with only the necessary actions, sep-
arated by an arrow.
For example, the procedure to access the [General] settings of the radar is written as “Tap
[Home] => [Settings] => [Radar] => [General]”. This means, do the following four steps:
1. Tap the [Home] button to show the [Home] screen.
2. Tap [Settings] to open the [Settings] menu.
3. Tap [Radar] to open the radar settings menu.
4. Tap [General] to open the [General] radar settings menu.
• Colors and settings shown in this manual are based on factory default settings.
• For the latest version of this manual, access the official FURUNO website at: www.furuno.com
Program version numbers
• eGuide version number: OME-45040-**
• Boot/App version number: 2.0.0R**
“**” indicates minor version number.

1. SYSTEM INTRODUCTION
1.1 How to Turn the Power On/Off
The power button is located on the lower-left side of the outer edge of the screen.
Press and hold the button to turn the power on. A short “beep” sound is released to
indicate that the power is on, then the start-up procedure begins. The splash screen
appears, followed by a message regarding chart usage. Tap the [OK] button to con-
tinue.
The last used screen is now displayed (for first time users, the Plotter screen is dis-
played) and the [Quick Guide on Startup] pop up appears. Tap [Yes] to view the quick
guide, [Not now] to view the quick guide at a later time. To hide the quick guide at start-
up, tap the toggle box at the bottom-left of the pop up to show [OFF].
To turn the power off, press and hold the power button. A pop up window with a
countdown timer appears and a three second countdown begins. Keep the power but-
ton pressed until the countdown ends.
Note: If one of the following error messages appears when you start the system, con-
sult your local dealer to purchase updated charts. Your current charts are old and
should be updated.
• "OBSOLETE CHART"
• "BASE SEGMENT FOUND WARNING"
• "MAX SEGMENT FOUND WARNING"
1.2 Brilliance/Color Adjustments
Press the power switch at the left-side of the display unit. The [Brilliance] pop up win-
dow appears.
To adjust the screen brilliance, do one of the following:
• Press the power key several times;
• Drag the slide-bar at [Brilliance], in the pop up window;
• Tap the [+] or [-] icon at [Brilliance], in the pop up window
To change the color palette in use, tap [Day] or [Night] as appropriate.
To close the pop up window, tap the cross at the top-right of the pop up window.
