Appropriate arrow flashes during

Note 1: The transducer is automatically retracted into the tank if the [POWER] switch is

Note 2: After changing settings, wait at least one minute before turning off the equipment to
allow the equipment to memorize settings, and start up with them at the next powering
of the equipment. No harm will result to the equipment if this not done.
