Installation
Mounting location
Choose the mounting locations carefully before you drill or cut. The unit should be mounted
so that the operator can easily use the controls and clearly see the screen.
Do not mount the S2016 in an outside location exposed to direct sunlight, it is intended for
pilothouse installation only. The S2009 may be mounted both inside, or outside in direct
sunlight due to its high brightness screen.
Ensure that any holes cut are in a safe position and will not weaken the boat’s structure. If in
doubt, consult a qualified boat builder, or marine electronics installer.
Before cutting a hole in a panel, make sure that there are no hidden electrical wires or other
parts behind the panel.
Check that it is possible to route cables to the intended mounting location.
Leave sufficient clearance to connect all relevant cables.
Do not mount any part where it can be used as a hand hold, where it might be submerged,
or where it will interfere with the operation, launching, or retrieving of the boat.
For overall width and height requirements, refer to "Dimensional drawings" on page 50.
Good ventilation is required. Choose a location that will not expose the unit to conditions
that exceed the specifications - refer to "Technical specifications" on page 48.
Warning: When installing, ensure appropriate safety equipment is used.
For example, ear muffs, protective glasses, gloves and a dust mask. Power
tools may exceed safe noise levels, and can cast off dangerous projectiles.
The dust from many materials commonly used in boat construction may
cause irritation or damage to eyes, skin, and lungs.
