vertical surface, using the supplied bracket to fit and orient the
unit horizontally.
• Location must be at least 1 m (3 ft.) away from any source
of magnetic interference, such as compasses and electrical
cables.
• Safe from physical damage and excessive vibration.
• Away from any source of heat.
• Away from any potential flammable hazard, such as fuel
vapors.
• Must be mounted with the arrow on the top of the unit in
parallel alignment with the vessel’s longitudinal axis. Position
the arrow on the unit facing forward in the direction of the
