Installation Overview
Following are instructions for the installation of this accessory. Before you start installation, we encourage you to read these
instructions carefully in order to get the full benefit from your Humminbird® accessory.
Areas of Possible Turbulence
If you find that any items are missing from your installation kit, call our Customer Resource Center at 1-800-633-1468 or
NOTE: This accessory requires drilling a hole in the hull of the boat; therefore, installation should be performed by a qualified
marine technician.
In addition to the hardware supplied with your accessory, you will need a drill, a small drill bit for a pilot hole, a 2" hole saw,
a level, and marine-grade silicone sealant.
Installation
Perform the procedures in the following sections to install the Temp/Speed Gauge on your boat.
Rivets
Transom
Hull
1.
Testing the Temp/Speed Gauge Prior to Installation
Strakes
Prior to installation, test the Temp/Speed Gauge to make sure that no damage occurred during shipping.
1. After connecting the temp/speed gauge to the control head, hold the gauge in the water over the side of the boat to
confirm proper operation. If the gauge is working properly, the control head will begin displaying water temperature
immediately.
Stepped Hull
2.
Locating the Temp/Speed Gauge Mounting Position
You must first determine the best location on the transom to install the Temp/Speed Gauge. It is very important to locate the
gauge in an area that is relatively free of turbulent water, constantly submerged, and positioned to allow you to trailer the
boat without damaging the gauge.
The best location will be aft midship, as close to the centerline of the boat as possible. The gauge should be mounted
forward of the prop(s) on inboard boats, and separate from other transducers, strakes, rivets, ribs, or other protrusions.
Rib
Step
Inside the boat, there must be room to access the mounting location for installation and cable routing. Notice that the
Temp/Speed Gauge is removable from the threaded housing - adequate overhead space must be available to remove
this insert.
3.
Attaching the Temp/Speed Gauge
1. From the outside of the hull, drill a small pilot hole (smaller than the centering bit of your drill bit or hole saw), at the
mounting location you selected in procedure 2.
2. Use the pilot hole (from the outside of the hull) to drill a 2" hole.
3. Thoroughly clean and deburr the drilled hole and clean the outside of the hull.
4. Disassemble the temp/speed gauge and wing nut from the threaded housing.

Maintenance
Humminbird® Service Policy
If your boat remains in the water for long periods of time, algae and other marine
growth can reduce the effectiveness of the Temp/Speed Accessory. Periodically
clean the face of the Temp/Speed Accessory with hot water.
Even though you'll probably never need to take advantage of our incredible
service policy, it's good to know that we back our products this confidently. We do
it because you deserve the best. We will make every effort to repair your unit
within three business days from the receipt of your unit at our factory. This does
not include shipping time to and from our factory. Units received on Friday are
typically shipped by the following Wednesday, units received Monday are
typically shipped by Thursday, etc.
If your boat remains out of the water for a long period of time, it may take some
time to wet the Temp/Speed Accessory after it is returned to the water. Small air
bubbles can cling to the surface of the gauge and interfere with proper operation.
These bubbles will dissipate with time, or you may wipe the face of the
Temp/Speed Accessory with your fingers after the gauge is in the water.
All repair work is performed by factory-trained technicians to meet exacting
factory specifications. Factory-serviced units go through the same rigorous testing
and quality control inspections as new production units.

90 days after service has been performed by our factory technicians. You can
