Control Head Maintenance
It is important to consider the following precautions when using your control head.
WARNING!
Do not use a chemical glass cleaner on the screen.
Chemicals in the solution may cause
cracking in the lens of the unit.
Δ
Chemicals, such as those found in bug spray and sunscreen, may cause permanent damage to the
control head screen. Such damage is not covered by the warranty.
Δ
Never leave your Humminbird ICE unit in a closed car or trunk — the high temperatures generated
in hot weather can damage the electronics.
Use the following information to keep the control head and screen clean.
Δ Screen:
When cleaning the LCD protective screen, use a chamois and nonabrasive, mild cleaner.
Be careful to avoid scratching the lens.
NOTE:
Do not wipe the screen while dirt or grease is on the screen.
Δ Control Head:
If the unit comes into contact with salt spray, wipe the affected surfaces with a cloth
dampened in fresh water.
