The power pack and portable transducers expand the uses for your so-
nar. You can use your Cuda 242 sonar unit on your boat or take it to
the dock, on a float tube, on an ice fishing trip or use it as a second so-
nar in a friend's boat.
The PPP-12 package includes the power pack, battery adapter and a port-
able transducer. The transducer can be stored inside the power pack. The
PPP-12 requires eight AA alkaline batteries. Batteries are not included.
To use a portable power pack, you install the batteries and then attach
the sonar unit to the power pack's bracket. Plug in the
power/transducer cable and you're ready to fish.
The PPP-12 has a quick-release mounting bracket built into the case.
Installing the Batteries

Insert eight "AA" size batteries into the battery adapter and place it in
the battery compartment. Slip the battery cover tabs into the slots in
the case wall, then close the battery cover with the thumb screw.
