After power-on, "550" is initially displayed in the FORE-AFT ship's

alternates between "H" (High) and "L" (low).  After the elapse of 
about one minute, the display mode changes to normal display.

that you can read the screen easily.

brighter. The brightness levels can be adjusted in six 
increment. 
 
 
The brightness level “H”  and  ”L”  are AUTO-DIMMER mode. 
Depending on the amount of external light, the AUTO-DIMMER 
automatically controls illuminance via the photosensor provided in 
the panel.  At the "H" setting, illuminance is controlled for brighter 
display, and at the "L" setting, illuminance is controlled for darker 
display. 
 
A press of the DIMMER switch on the panel displays the current 
setting of the brightness level for three seconds in the DISTANCE 
display window.  A re-press of the switch during the display updates 
the current setting by one level.
