.Battery Information Battery Warnings

WARNING

Failure to heed the following warnings could result in death, serious injury, or property damage. A lithium-ion battery is used for this device.
If these guidelines are not followed, batteries may experience a shortened life span or may present a risk of damage to the device, fire, chemical burn, electrolyte leak, and/or injury.

  • Use only the external battery charger provided by Garmin®.
  • Only use the battery with Garmin approved products.
  • KEEP BATTERIES AWAY FROM CHILDREN.
  • Do not directly or indirectly short any wiring, terminals, or contacts of the battery.
  • Do not disassemble, modify, remanufacture, puncture or damage the battery.
  • Do not expose the battery to fire, explosion, or other hazard.
  • Do not use a sharp object to remove or tamper with the battery or parts of the battery.
  • Do not immerse or expose the battery to water or other liquids. Do not allow the battery to get wet.
  • Do not store the battery in your vehicle or in high temperature areas. Do not leave the battery exposed to a heat source or in a high-temperature location, such as in the sun in an unattended vessel. To prevent the possibility of damage, remove the battery from the vessel or store it out of direct sunlight.
  • Do not attempt to charge the battery outside of the following range: from 10° to 45°C (from 50° to 113°F).
  • Do not operate (discharge) the battery outside of the following temperature range: from -20° to 60°C (from -4° to 140°F).
  • When storing the battery for an extended time period, store within the following temperature range: from 20° to 40°C (from 68° to 104°F).
  • Do not connect any cables to the battery that are not approved for this battery by Garmin.
  • Only replace the battery with the correct replacement battery. Using other batteries presents a risk of fire or explosion. To purchase a replacement battery, see your Garmin dealer or buy.garmin.com.
  • Do not leave the battery unattended while charging.
  • Do not leave the battery charging near wood, carpet, paper, or other flammable materials.
  • Check the battery charger connections for correct polarity before charging.
  • Recharge the battery promptly after it is discharged, ideally within 24 hours. Charge battery every six months during long term storage to maintain peak performance.
  • Do not operate or charge a battery that has been dropped or damaged in any way.

Charging the Battery

WARNING

Do not connect any cables to the battery that are not approved for this battery by Garmin. Only use the included all-in-one cable and charger to charge the battery.
Ensure that you connect the correct connector to the correct battery terminal. Damage to the battery or device, or bodily harm may occur if the device is improperly connected to the battery.

  1. Remove the battery terminal covers.
  2. Connect the red and black spade connectors from the all-in-one cable onto the corresponding battery terminals.
  3. Remove the charger port cap on the all-in-one cable.
  4. Connect the all-in-one cable to the charger.
  5. Connect the charger to a power outlet.
  6. Check the status of the LED on the charger.
LED Color Status
Green Outside of charging temperature range or fully charged
Red Charging

If the indicator LED is red, the battery is charging. It takes up to 8 hours to fully charge a fully discharged battery, depending on the internal battery temperature.
When the indicator LED is green, the battery is fully charged or outside of the charging temperature range. The battery charges when it is within the charging temperature range of 10° to 45°C (50° to 113°F).
During long term storage, charge the battery every 6 months to maintain peak performance.

Assembling the Panoptix™ Ice Fishing Mount
You need a Phillips screwdriver and the included 5 mm hex wrench to assemble the ice fishing mount and attach the transducer.

  1. Insert the Phillips head sheet metal screws into the four corners of the ice mount base.
    The screws protrude from the bottom of the base to help stabilize the mount when it is on the ice.

  2. Locate the handle and the top pole segment.

  3. Place the base 1  between the handle 2  and the top pole 3, and screw them together.

  4. Determine how many of the three middle pole segments you need to use, based on the thickness of the ice.
    TIP: The top of the transducer must be below the bottom of the ice for best performance.

  5. Screw together the needed segments, with the shortest segment on the bottom of the pole.

  6. Refer to the transducer installation instructions and follow the steps for mounting the transducer on a shaft.

  7. After mounting the transducer on the pole, use the hook and loop straps to secure the transducer cable to the pole.

  8. Position the transducer for the desired view.

  9. Place the mount base around the hole in the ice.

  10. Rotate the handle to aim the transducer.

Effective Forward and Down Range

NOTE: Water conditions and bottom conditions affect the depth and range performance of the transducer. You should use caution and observe the water depth and range, especially when your unit is operating in manual range or depth mode.
When operating in LiveVü Forward mode, the transducer has an effective forward range of between five and eight times the depth of the water. For example, in 3 m (10 ft.) of water, the effective forward range is between 15 and 24 m (between 50 and 80 ft.). Water conditions and bottom conditions affect the actual range.
When operating in LiveVü Down mode, the fore/aft range is equal to the depth of the water. For example, in 10 m (33 ft.) water depth, the screen will display 5 m (16 ft.) fore and 5 m (16 ft.) aft of the transducer. Deeper water provides a greater fore and aft range.
