vi Introduction The Fish fi nder 160 is able to display 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 Selecting a T ransducer 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. The transducer transmits sound waves toward the bottom in a cone shape.
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, this will void your warranty .
3 Installation Mounting the T ransducer In-hull Installation The 010-10224-00 transducer is designed to be mounted inside a fiberglass hull. The standar d plastic transom mount transducer can also be mounted in this fashion using this method. If using a temperature sensing transducer , the temperature displayed will reflect the hull temperature.
4 Installation Slide clamp band through slot in bracket Clamp Band Cable Ties Worm Gear Mounting the T ransducer T rolling Motor Installation Included in the 010-10251-00 transducer kit you should have: • Worm Gear Clamp • Cable Ties • T ransducer Mounting the T ransducer: 1.

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 Fish fi nder 160 can be connected to another piece of NMEA com- patible electronic equipment.
7 Installation Installing the Display Display Installation (Surface Mount) The Fish fi nder 160 can be mounted to a fl at surface using the supplied Surface Mounting Bracket. Surface Mounting the Display: 1. Position the Surface Mount in the desired location.
8 Installation Installing the Display Display Installation (Flush Mount) The Fish fi nder 160 can be mounted fl ush against a dash or electronics rack that is no more than 1/4 ” thick. Flush Mounting the Display: 1. Remove the Surface Mount Brack et and Knobs .

This section is intended to help the novice user gain some understanding of how the Fishfinder 160 operates and how it can help improve their fishing pr oductivity .
29 On the W ater 29 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. Using Garmin ’ s standard 20 ° transducer , the coverage is approximately 1/3rd of the water depth.
30 On the W ater 30 On the W ater Understanding the Chart Understanding the Chart It is important to understand that the unit does not display a 3-D repre- sentation of the underwater environment. The unit can display multiple things at the same time, but can not determine where the return originated only when it was received.
31 On the W ater 31 On the W ater Understanding the Chart Whiteline The Fish fi nder 160 can help you to determine if the bottom is hard or soft. When the sonar soundwaves are re fl ected back by the bottom, a hard bottom will r etur n a stronger signal than a soft bottom.
32 On the W ater 32 On the W ater Understanding the Chart Thermoclines One of the unique features of fered by GARMIN is See-Thru ® technol- ogy . See-Thru ® technology allows the Fishfinder 160 to see through thermoclines and helps locate fish where they live, and fish love the thermocline.
33 On the W ater 33 On the W ater Simulator Mode Simulator Mode The Fishfinder 160 comes with a built-in simulator mode that will allow the user to practice and learn the operation of the unit at home rather than on the water . T o start the simulator mode, turn the unit on without a transducer installed.
