20.1 Maintenance procedures
At regular intervals, carry out the following servicing procedures:
• Routine checks.
• Cleaning the Display.
Do not attempt any other servicing procedures.
Servicing and Safety
• Raymarine equipment should be serviced only by authorized
Raymarine service technicians. They will ensure that service
procedures and any replacement parts used will not affect
performance. There are no user serviceable parts in any
Raymarine product.
• Some products generate high voltages, so never handle the
cables or connectors when power is being supplied to the
equipment.
• When powered on, all electrical equipment produces electro-
magnetic fields. These can cause adjacent pieces of electrical
equipment to interact with one another, with a consequent
adverse effect on operation. In order to minimize these effects
and enable you to get the best possible performance from your
Raymarine equipment, guidelines are given in the installations
manual, to enable you to ensure minimum interaction between
different items of equipment, i.e. ensure optimum Electromag-
netic 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. Gener-
ally this will not damage the display, but it can lead to spurious
re-setting action, or momentarily may result in faulty operation.
• At the end of the useful working life of this product, it should
disposed of in accordance with local regulations.
Routine checks
Carry out the following tasks on a regular basis:
• Examine all cables for signs of damage, such as chafing, cuts
or nicks.
• Check that all cables are securely connected.
Cleaning the display
Please read these instructions carefully. Failure to follow
the correct cleaning procedure may damage your display
window and invalidate your warranty.
Window coating
A coating is applied to the plastic window of your display. This
makes it water repellent and prevents glare. To avoid damaging this
coating, the recommended cleaning procedure must be followed.
Recommended cleaning procedure
1. Power off the Display.
2. Rinse the window with fresh water, to remove all dirty particles
and salt deposits.
3. Allow the window to dry naturally.
4. If any smears remain, very gently wipe the window with a clean
microfiber cleaning cloth (provided with the Display or available
from opticians).
20.2 Resetting the monitor
You can reset the G-Series system in one of two ways:
Do not use any abrasive materials including a dry cloth.
Do not use any cleaning solutions, polishes or sprays.
Do not use a jet wash.
