Introduction
Thank you for buying a Lowrance
LCF-1440 In-Dash Flasher! Your
unit is a high-quality flasher sonar designed for both professional and
novice fishermen. All Lowrance sonars have an automatic mode that
finds and displays the bottom, fish, underwater structure and more –
right out of the box. All you have to do is press the on (
PWR
) key.
However, if you want to fine-tune your unit, press the
MENU UP
key. The
sonar has several powerful features you can control by scrolling through
easy-to-use menus with the arrow and menu keys.
To get started with your Lowrance sonar, first read the installation
section. It contains instructions for mounting the sonar unit. If
necessary, also consult the accompanying transducer installation
instructions.
Following recommended installation practices will pay off in optimum
performance of your Lowrance sonar. Improper installation can cause
problems down the road, especially if the transducer is badly mounted.
After you've read the installation instructions, install the unit and
accessories. Then, read the rest of the manual. The more you know
about your sonar, the better it will work for you.
Take advantage of the Simulator feature. It allows you to practice
operating your sonar before you get it in the water. And when you finally
head for your favorite fishing hole, take this manual along for reference.
