2.1 Maintenance

Servicing and safety

Raymarine equipment should be serviced only by authorised Rayma-
rine service technicians. They will ensure that servicing procedures
and replacement parts used will not affect performance. There are no
user-serviceable parts in any Raymarine product.

Some products generate high voltages, and so never handle the
cables/connectors when power is being applied to the equipment.

When powered up, all electrical equipment produces electromag-
netic fields. These can cause adjacent pieces of electrical equipment
to interact with one another, with a consequent adverse effect on oper-
ation. In order to minimise these effects and enable you to get the best
possible performance from your Raymarine equipment, guidelines
are given in the installation instructions, to enable you to ensure min-
imum interaction between different items of equipment, i.e. ensure
optimum Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC).

Always report any EMC-related problem to your nearest Raymarine
dealer. We use such information to improve our quality standards.

In some installations, it may not be possible to prevent the equipment
from being affected by external influences. In general this will not
damage the equipment but it can lead to spurious resetting action, or
momentarily may result in faulty operation.

Instrument

Certain atmospheric conditions may cause condensation to form on the
instrument window. This will not harm the instrument and can be cleared
by increasing the illumination setting to Level 3.

Periodically clean your ST60 instrument with a soft damp cloth. Do NOT
use chemical and abrasive materials to clean the instrument.

Transducers

Refer to the Installation and Maintenance instructions supplied with the
transducers.
