Chapter 1: Important information

Safety notices

Warning: Ensure safe navigation

This product is intended only as an aid to navigation

and must never be used in preference to sound

navigational judgment. Only ofcial government

charts and notices to mariners contain all the current

information needed for safe navigation, and the

captain is responsible for their prudent use. It is the

user’s responsibility to use ofcial government charts,

notices to mariners, caution and proper navigational

skill when operating this or any other Raymarine

product.

Warning: Product installation and

operation

This product must be installed and operated in

accordance with the instructions provided. Failure to

do so could result in personal injury, damage to your

boat and/or poor product performance.

Warning: High voltages

This product contains high voltages. Do NOT remove

any covers or otherwise attempt to access internal

components, unless specically instructed in this

document.

Warning: Touchscreen display

When exposed to prolonged periods of direct sunlight,

the touchscreen display can get very hot. In such

conditions, avoid using the touchscreen display and

use the unit’s physical keys and buttons instead.

Warning: Autopilot control

The autopilot functions available on the multifunction

display do NOT replace the autopilot control head.

You must have a pilot control head installed before

you enable or engage the autopilot.

Warning: Sonar operation

• NEVER operate the sounder with the boat out of

the water.

• NEVER touch the transducer face when the sounder

is powered on.

• SWITCH OFF the sounder if divers are likely to be

within 7.6 m (25 ft) of the transducer.

Warning: Radar scanner safety

Before rotating the radar scanner, ensure all personnel

are clear.

Warning: Radar transmission safety

The radar scanner transmits electromagnetic energy.

Ensure all personnel are clear of the scanner when

the radar is transmitting.

Important information

Caution: Care of chart cards

To avoid irreparable damage to and/or loss of data

from chart cards:

• Ensure that chart cards are tted the correct way

around. DO NOT try to force a card into position.

• DO NOT save data (waypoints, routes, and so on)

to a chart card, as the charts may be overwritten.

• DO NOT use a metallic instrument such as a

screwdriver or pliers to remove a chart card.

• Safe removal. Use the Remove Card menu option

before removing the chart card.

Caution: Ensure chart card door is

securely closed

To prevent water ingress and consequent damage to

the display, ensure that the chart card door is rmly

closed. This can be conrmed by an audible click.

Caution: Cleaning

When cleaning this product:

• Do NOT wipe the display screen with a dry cloth, as

this could scratch the screen coating.

• Do NOT use abrasive, or acid or ammonia based

products.

• Do NOT use a jet wash.

TFT LCD Displays

The colors of the display may seem to vary when viewed against

a colored background or in colored light. This is a perfectly normal

effect that can be seen with all color Liquid Crystal Displays (LCDs).

In common with all Thin Film Transistor (TFT) LCD units, the screen

may exhibit a few (less than 7) wrongly illuminated pixels. These

may appear as black pixels in a light area of the screen or as colored

pixels in black areas.

Water ingress

Water ingress disclaimer

Although the waterproof rating capacity of Raymarine products

exceeds that called for by the IPX6 standard, water intrusion

and subsequent equipment failure may occur if any Raymarine

equipment is subjected to commercial high pressure washing.

Raymarine will not warrant equipment subjected to high pressure

washing.

prudent use. It is the user’s responsibility to use ofcial government

charts, notices to mariners, caution and proper navigational skill

when operating this or any other Raymarine product. This product

supports electronic charts provided by third party data suppliers

which may be embedded or stored on memory card. Use of such

10 E-Series Widescreen User reference
