Caring for the Fishnder 160C
The Fishnder 160C's case is constructed of high-quality materials
and does not require user maintenance except cleaning.
Caring for the Screen
The Fishnder 160C's lens is coated with a special anti-reective coating that
is sensitive to skin oils, waxes and abbrasive cleaners. Cleaners containing
amonia, alcohol, abrasives, or anti-grease detergents will harm the anti-
reective coating. It is important to clean the lens using an eyeglass lens
cleaner (that is specied as safe for anti-reective coatings) and a clean, lint-
free cloth.
Cleaning the Case
Clean the unit’s outer casing (except for the screen) using a cloth dampened
with a mild detergent solution, and then wipe dry. Avoid chemical cleaners and
solvents that may damage plastic components.
Water Immersion
The Fishnder 160C is waterproof to IEC Standard 60529 IPX7. It can
withstand immersion in 1 meter of water for 30 minutes. Prolonged submersion
can cause damage to the unit. After submersion, be certain to wipe and air dry
the unit before reuse.
Storage
Do not store the Fishnder 160C where prolonged exposure to temperature
extremes may occur (such as in the trunk of a car) because permanent damage
may result.
