Press the POWER MENU key until SIDEFINDER FILTER appears The sidefinder filter is used to reduce false markings from submerged objects like pier poles and submerged branches The filter is best used around docks and other shoreline structures where false markings might occur In most situations and especially in open water the best performance is obtained with the filter turned off Select either Off on On Off On Default Off Maintenance Your Fishin Buddy is designed to provide years of trouble free operation with virtually no maintenance Follow these simple procedures to ensure your Fishin Buddy continues to deliver top performance If the unit comes into contact with salt spray wipe the affected surfaces with a cloth dampened in fresh water Do not use a chemical glass cleaner on the lens this may cause cracking in the lens When cleaning the LCD protective lens use a chamois and non abrasive mild cleaner Do not wipe while dirt or grease is on the lens Be careful to avoid scratching the lens If your transducer remains in the water for long periods of time marine growth can reduce the effectiveness of the transducer Periodically clean the face of the transducer with liquid detergent UAUDESAUSESKGSESEDAGaEEaaeseSEaSESH DEES DESL ESAAEESA DEEL ESESLOSESESSOSESESAESESEESESATSEGESLSSESESSTSESSESEGESSSSESENSESESSSSESASSESLSSTSESSESESLSLESESESSESEALSLSSESESSOSERESEESESEDSESNDEESESLSSESESSESESSESEDENESESINSESESSSESLSSE

9. build beds near the shoreline Direct experience with each shoreline will teach you the Fishin Buddy s capabilities The best way to understand how your Fishin Buddy sees is to imagine that the transducer is a flashlight and the water is clear If you are trying to see into weeds the ability of your flashlight beam to penetrate depends on the thickness of the weeds If the weeds are thin your flashlight beam will penetrate further If you are trying to see past an underwater rise to view the shoreline it is a question of how high the rise is You can see the shore if you can shine your flashlight beam above the rise and illuminate the shore in the background Occasionally the Fishin Buddy may falsely mark objects other than fish This can occur with air bubble streams from nearby boats or air filled swim ladders This can also occur when the Fishin Buddy is aimed at a cement or rock wall due to a double reflection effect The 100 Series Fishin Buddy is designed to eliminate false readings especially with the filter on Due to the strength of the signal it is possible to fool and thus get an occasional false reading if the unit is working from a Stationary non moving boat or a pier The SideFinding filter allows the Fishin Buddy to be much more selective in marking fish Use the filter around docks and other structures in the water The Fishin Buddy will display fewer fish with the filter on
