6. Using Bottom-Lock; 
Factory setting: OFF 
 
 

Bottom-Lock provides an up-close view like Zoom, 

except that in this case the zoomed view automatically mo ves 
up or down to stay on the bottom. To use this feature, select 
BOTTOM LOCK and press ON-OFF. The BL indicator and the 
range of the display are shown when BottomLock is on. 
 
 

This is an ideal feature for finding structure or locating 

fish near the bottom. 
 
 

Remember: If Bottom-Lock is the last function 

selected, you can use the ON-OFF button to switch Bottom-
Lock on and off without having to press SELECT first. 
 

 
 
 
 
7. Using Bottom-Hardness: 
Factory setting: OFF 
 
 

Bottom-Hardness provides a special display at the 

top of the screen that shows the relative hardness of the 
bottom surface. Hard surfaces are indicated by a full vertical 
bar, and soft surfaces are indicated by a shorter vertical bar. 
 

To use this feature, select BOTTOM HARDNESS 

and press ON-OFF. 
 

NOTE: Bottom-Hardness is factory set for average 

bottom hardness. You can adjust the scale so a known bottom 
will read as hard, medium or soft; this will aid in comparisons 
of other "unknown" terrain. 
 

To adjust the bottom hardness scale, use the Up and 

Down arrows to move the sliding display. The bottom-
hardness scale is not displayed in the straight-on view. 
 
 
 

8. Setting Display Speed; 
Factory setting: Maximum 
 
 

The Dimension 3 display is "updated" (advances 

across the screen) as you move through the water. The speed 
at which the display is updated depends on the Display Speed 
setting. To adjust it, select DISPLAY SPEED, and press the 
Up arrow for a faster setting or the Down arrow for a slower 
setting. 
 

In general, higher Display Speed settings provide 

faster updates, while slower Display Speeds provide more 
detailed information. 
 
 

Display speed affects how much "history" is shown; 

slower display speeds will increase the distance of bottom on 
screen.
