vi Introduction The Fishfi nder 160 Blue is capable of displaying a variety of useful information about the underwater environment. Below are a few things the unit will help you see. Water Depth T he unit displays water depth and can provide a warning for shallow or deep-water conditions .
1 Installation T ransducers T ransducers The transducer acts as the eyes and ears of your new sonar . Proper transducer selection and installation are critical to the operation of your unit. Included in the Optional Package is a 200/50kHz frequency (10°/40° cone angle), depth and temperature sensing, transom mount transducer .
2 Installation Mounting the T ransducer Proper transducer installation is key to getting the best performance from your new unit. If the transducer lead is too short, extension cables are available fr om you GARMIN dealer . DO NOT cut the transducer lead or any part of the transducer cable, as this will void your warranty .
3 Installation Mounting the T ransducer In-Hull Installation T o avoid drilling a hole to mount a thru-hull transducer , a transom mount transducer may be used with epoxy inside a boat (also called “shoot- thru-hull” installation).
4 Installation Mounting the T ransducer/ Speed Sensor In-Hull Installation (continued) Installing the T ransducer: 1. Lightly sand the surface of the hull and face of the transducer with 400 grit wet or dry sandpaper . 2. Build a dam using strip caulk about 1/4” tall.
5 Installation Installing the Wiring Harness Wiring Harness Installation The Fishfinder 160 Blue comes with a wiring harness that connects the unit to power and the transducer with one easy-to-remove connection. Make sure the wiring harness will reach the unit before beginning installation.
6 Installation Wiring Harness Installation (continued) If your boat does not have a fuse block, the unit can be wired directly to the battery . Make sure the 2-Amp in-line fuse supplied with the unit is installed. The Fishfi nder 160 Blue can be connected to another piece of NMEA- compatible electronic equipment.
7 Installation Installing the Display Display Installation (Surface Mount) The Fishfi nder 160 Blue can be mounted to a fl at surface using the supplied Surface Mount Bracket. Surface Mounting the Display: 1. P osition the Surface Mount Brack et in the desired location.

On the W ater 31 On the W ater T ransducer Coverage T ransducer Cover age The area covered by the transmitted sound waves is determined by the cone angle of the transducer and the water depth. The 50kHz frequency provides a 40° cone angle, with a coverage width that is appr oximately 2/3 of the water depth.
32 On the W ater On the W ater Understanding the Chart Understanding the Chart It is important to understand that the unit does not display a 3-D representation of the underwater envir onment. The unit can display mul- tiple things at the same time, but cannot determine from wher e the return originated.
On the W ater 33 On the W ater Understanding the Chart Whiteline The Fishfi nder 160 Blue can help you to determine if the bottom is hard or soft. When the sonar soundwaves are refl ected back by the bottom, a har d bottom will return a str onger signal than a soft bottom.
34 On the W ater On the W ater Understanding the Chart Thermoclines A rough defi nition of a thermocline is a break in water wher e the water temperature changes at a faster rate than the water above it. The thermocline is usually displayed as a gray level, as shown below .
