2.12.2 Manual reverse mode

The transducer train direction is reversed manually, thereby emphasizing possible fish

2. Press the [TARGET] key to reverse the transducer train direction when a fish school

appears. “REVERSE” momentarily appears at the screen top when the key is pressed
and then the transducer train direction is reversed.
