INstallatIoN precautIoNs
if you are connecting your GD9600 for the first time or have
just reconnected your boat battery and you are experiencing
problems with the unit’s operation, we suggest you try
resetting the unit. the reset button is located under the
volume face panel. Gently press the reset button with a
paper clip or similar object.
the preset station memories and clock time are retained
only while the yellow ‘memory 12 V+’ lead is connected
(see Electrical Wiring section). if the battery is disconnected
or switched off at the master switch, or the unit is removed
from the vessel, the station memories will be lost and the
clock will need to be reset.
haNdlINg compact dIscs
• Handle the cD/DVD by it’s edge, avoid touching the
disc surface.
• store your discs away from direct
sunlight or heat sources. Keeping
the disc in it’s original case will
help to avoid damage.
• clean the disc with a soft cloth
from the centre to the outer edge,
(see diagram) rather than in a
circular motion. Do not use solvents.
moIsture coNdeNsatIoN
Your GD9600 uses optical laser technology. occasionally
damp or humid conditions may cause condensation to
appear on the lenses inside the unit. should this occur, the
unit might not operate correctly. simply eject the disc and
leave the unit turned on for a while until the
moisture evaporates.
locatIoN
the GD9600 is available in a range of mounting
configurations to enable it to be installed in the most
convenient position. GmE recommends that the unit should
be mounted in a position that is free from direct sunlight
and excessive vibration.
note. the GD9600 should not be mounted at angles
greater than 30° above or below the horizontal.
flush mouNtINg - gd9620
the GD9620 can be neatly flush mounted into a panel or
bulkhead so that just the controls and the protective cover
are visible.
using the template provided, select a suitable location on a
panel or bulkhead. Examine behind the panel to determine
the best method of support. if the thickness of the panel is
not sufficient to support the unit, it will be necessary to use
the strap supplied (see following diagrams).
