ROUTING UNIVERSAL SONAR
Your trolling motor may be pre-installed with a Universal Sonar transducer system. For compatibility and more information on Universal
Sonar, please visit minnkotamotors.com. Your trolling motor may also be pre-installed with i-Pilot. To learn more about the GPS capabilities
available with your i-Pilot navigation system, please refer to the corresponding Owner's Manual by visiting minnkotamotors.com.
Universal Sonar requires cables to be connected to an output device. This connection is present on the trolling motor inside the Control
Head. The i-Pilot system does not need an external wired connection. If a connection is present, it is to connect the Universal Sonar.
Please follow the Minn Kota recommendations on routing the cables to optimize mobility and maximize functionality. The routing will be
the same regardless of the number of cables present. Use the following instructions to properly route cables.
The Universal Sonar Cables are shielded to minimize interference. To protect this shielding the cables should not be pulled tight against
sharp angles or hard objects. If using cable ties, do not over-tighten. Any excess cable should be bundled in a loose loop of no less than 4"
in diameter.
To minimize trolling motor interference, ensure that the fish finder and trolling motor are powered by separate batteries. Please refer to the
Battery & Wiring Installation and Motor Wiring Diagram sections of this manual for correct rigging instructions.

a. Place the motor in the stowed position.
b. Locate the Universal Sonar, at the base of the
Control Head.
CAUTION
Not following the recommended wire routing for the i-Pilot
Link cable, if equipped, may cause damage to the product
and void your product warranty. Route cables away from
pinch points or other areas that may cause them to bend
in sharp angles. Routing the cables in any way other than
directed may cause damage to the cables by being pinched
or severed.
c. The Universal Sonar Cable should be fed all the way
through the Coil Cord. It should exit the Coil Cord
at the bottom of the Coil Cod, where it connects to
the Mount.

NOTICE:
After the Universal Sonar Cable exits the Coil
Cord, it should be routed through an established routing
system on the boat, in an area with minimal interference.
Inspect the selected route carefully to ensure that there
are no sharp edges, obstacles, or obstructions that may
damage the cables.
