Chapter 5: Navigation & Communication Equipment
The owner’s packet contains manuals for all navigation & communication equipment installed on your boat.
Thoroughly read and understand these manuals before using these systems for the first time and observe
the following:
Gauges
Cleaning Gauges
Gauge Fogging
• Moisture may occasionally find its way into the gauges causing lens fogging.
• Turning on the gauge lights will help dry the lenses.
• Fogging will not harm the gauges.
Fuel Gauge
It is normal for the pointers on your fuel gauges to bounce as fuel sloshes back and forth in the fuel tanks.
VHF Radio (If Equipped)
Your boat may include a VHF (Very High Frequency) radio. The VHF radio can be used to access weather reports,
summon assistance or contact other vessels as permitted by the FCC (Federal Communications Commission).
Contact the FCC for licensing, rules and regulations concerning VHF radio usage.
Radio Transmission Interference
VHF or other radio transmissions may cause brief erratic readings on tachometers. This will not damage these gauges
or affect their accuracy when not transmitting.
PRODUCT or PROPERTY DAMAGE HAZARD!
• Use only mild soap and water to clean the gauge lenses and bezels.
• Use of other cleaners, including common window cleaning solutions, may cause the lenses
to crack.
• Lenses cracked in this manner will not be covered by our warranty.
