Portable Transducer

Maintenance
If your boat remains in the water for long periods of time, algae and other
marine growth can reduce the effectiveness of the transducer. Periodically
clean the face of the transducer with hot water. Pivoting the transducer up in
the bracket may allow better access for inspection or cleaning.
If your boat remains out of the water for a long period of time, it may take
some time to wet the transducer after it is returned to the water. Small air
bubbles can cling to the surface of the transducer and interfere with proper
operation. These bubbles will dissipate with time, or you may wipe the face of
the transducer with your fingers after the transducer is in the water.

Humminbird® Service Policy
Even though you'll probably never need to take advantage of our incredible
service policy, it's good to know that we back our products this confidently.
We do it because you deserve the best. We will make every effort to repair
your unit within three business days from the receipt of your unit at our
factory. This does not include shipping time to and from our factory. Units
received on Friday are typically shipped by the following Wednesday, units
received Monday are typically shipped by Thursday, etc.
All repair work is performed by factory-trained technicians to meet exacting
factory specifications. Factory-serviced units go through the same rigorous
testing and quality control inspections as new production units.
After the original warranty period, a standard flat rate service charge will be
assessed for each repair (physical damage and missing parts are not
included). Any repairs made after the original warranty will be warranted for
an additional 90 days after service has been performed by our factory
technicians. You can contact our Customer Resource Center or visit our
website to verify the flat rate repair fee for your product (visit the Product
Support section):

parts are no longer available or impossible to obtain. This Service Policy is

change without notice.
