FF718LiCD color fish finder Operations Manual
FF718LiCD color fish finder Operations Manual
This amazing product is especially designed for amateur and professional
fishermen alike, to find out the location of fish ,depth and bottom contour
of water. The unit can be used in ocean, river or lake and is fantastic for
detecting schools of fish in any particular area. Using amazing and
innovative technology, this fish finder is the ideal tool to bring the fish to
you !
The FF718LiCD has Three different user modes: 200KHz; 83KHz;
200KHz/83KHz
Use the Transducer Mode menu choice to change between these three
user modes.
USER MODE
200KHz
USER MODE
200KHz/83KHz
200KHz : This user mode allows you to operate the in 200KHz
frequency. When you use 200KHz mode, the can indicate fish
found in the wide (20°) beam when the fish icon mode is turned on.
83KHz: This user mode allows you to operate the in 83KHz
frequency. When use 83KHz mode , the can indicate fish
found in the wide (60°)beam when the fish icon mode is turned on.
200KHz/83KHz: This user mode allows you to operate the
in 83KHz/200KHz frequency. When you use 200/83KHz mode, the
can optimized to show the greatest bottom definition using a
narrow(20°)beam yet can still indicate fish found in the wide(60°) beam
area when the fish icon mode is turned on.

The is the easiest to use fish finder ever. For most anglers,
all you'll ever need to do is power on and fish! The
automatically determines depth and makes adjustments to keep the
bottom and fish visible on the display.
The uses sonar technology to send sound waves from the
transducer into the water. The returned “echoes” are plotted on the display,
creating a very accurate picture of the underwater world, including distance
to underwater objects such as the bottom, fish and structure.

When used with the Portable Cable transducer,
the uses a 200/83KHz Dual Beam
sonar system with a wide(60°) area of coverage.
When use 83KHz mode , the can
indicate fish found in the wide (60°)beam when
the fish icon mode is turned on. When you use
200KHz mode, the can indicate fish
found in the wide (20°)beam when the fish icon
mode is turned on. When you use 200/83KHz
mode, the can optimized to show the
greatest bottom definition using a narrow(20°)
beam yet can still indicate fish found in the wide
(60°) beam area when the fish icon mode is turned
on. Dual Beam is ideal for a wide range of
conditions-from shallow to very deep water in both
fresh and salt water. Boat speed, wave action, bottom
hardness, water conditions and transducer installation
can all affect depth capability.

Display View
The displays underwater information in an easy-to-understand
format. The top of the display corresponds to the water surface at the
transducer, and the bottom of the display corresponds to the Depth Range
automatically selected for the current water depth. The Bottom Contour
varies as the depth under the boat changes. Digital readouts provide
precise information for depth, fish and water temperature.
As the boat moves, terrain and bottom composition variations are displayed.
Fish, baitfish and the rmoclines (underwater temperature changes) are
displayed when detected. Underwater conditions vary greatly, so some
experience and interpretation is needed to realize all the benefits of the
use the picture as a guide to the most common conditions
and practice using the over known bottom types.

SIMULATION
Press the POWER-MENU key until SENSITIVITY appears. Sensitivity
controls how much detail is shown on the display. Increasing the sensitivity
shows more sonar returns from small baitfish and suspended debris in
the water; however, the display may become too cluttered. When operating
in very clear water or greater depths, increased sensitivity shows weaker
returns that may be of interest. Decreasing the sensitivity eliminates the
clutter from the display that is sometimes present in murky or muddy water.
If Sensitivity is adjusted too low, the display may not show many sonar
returns that could be fish. (1 –9).
Press the POWER-MENU key until DEPTH RANGE appears. Automatic
is the default setting. When in automatic, the lower range will be adjusted
by the unit to follow the bottom. (Auto, 1 to 100 Meet)
NOTE: In manual operation, if the current depth is greater than the depth
range settings, the bottom will not be visible on the display. Select AUTO
to return to automatic operation.
Press the POWER-MENU key until ZOOM appears. Select Auto to magnify
the area around the bottom in order to reveal fish and structure close to
the bottom that may not be visible during normal operation. When ZOOM
is set to Auto, the upper and lower Depth Ranges are automatically
adjusted to keep the area above and below the bottom on the display.
Select Off to return to normal operation. (Off, 1 to 100 Meet)
There is also a series of manual ranges which can be selected. The
manual depth ranges are determined by the present depth conditions.
Press the POWER-MENU key until DEPTH ALARM appears. Select OFF
for no Depth Alarm, or select 1 to 100 Meet to set the alarm depth. An
audible alarm sounds when the depth is equal to or less than the setting.

Maintenance
Follow these simple procedures to ensure your continues to
deliver top performance.
If the unit comes into contact with salt spray, wipe the affected surfaces
with a cloth dampened in fresh water.
Do not use a chemical glass cleaner on the less - this may cause cracking
in the lens.
When cleaning the LCD protective lens, use a chamois and non-abrasive,
mild cleaner. Do not wipe while dirt or grease is on the lens. Be careful to
avoid scratching the lens.
If your boat remains in the water for long period of time, marine growth can
reduce the effectiveness of the transducer. Periodically clean the face of
the transducer with liquid detergent.
FF718LiCD
If your boat remains out of the water for a long period of time, it may take
some time to wet the transducer when returned to the water. Small air
bubbles can cling to the surface of the transducer and interfere with proper
operation. These bubbles dissipate with time, or you can wipe the face of
the transducer with your fingers after the transducer is in the water.
Never leave the unit in a closed car or trunk - the extremely high
temperatures generated in hot weather can damage the electronics.
Trouble
Many requests for repair received by LUCKY involve
units that do not actually need repair.
1.Nothing happens when I turn the unit on.
Check and ensure the power is full.If not full,pls charge battery first.
2.There is no transducer detected.
The has the ability to detect and identify that a transducer is
connected. When powering on, make sure that an appropriate transducer
connector is plugged into the unit. In addition, inspect the transducer cable
from end to end for breaks, kinks, or cuts in the outer casing of the cable.
FF718LiCD
Also make sure that the transducer is fully submerged in water. If the
transducer is connected to the unit through a switch, temporarily connect
it directly to the unit and try again. If none of these action identifies an
obvious problem, the transducer itself is probably at fault. Be sure to
include the transducer if returning the unit for repair.
3.There is no bottom reading visible on the display.
In very deep water, it may be necessary to increase the sensitivity setting
manually to maintain a graphic depiction of the bottom. Inspect the
transducer cable from end to end for breaks, kinks, or cuts in the outer
casing of the cable. If none of these actions identifies an obvious problem,
the transducer itself may be at fault. Be sure to include the transducer if
returning the unit for repair.
4.When in very shallow water, I get gaps in the bottom reading and
inconsistent digital depth indication.
The FF718LiCD will work reliably in water 3 feet (0.9 meters) or deeper.
Remember that the depth is measured from the transducer, not from the
surface of the water.
5.The display shows many black dots at high speeds and high sensitivity
settings.
You are seeing noise or interference caused by one of several sources.
Noise can be caused by electronic devices. Turn off any nearby electronics
and see if the problem goes away. Noise can be caused by the the engine.
If engine noise is causing the interference, the problem will intensify at
higher RPMs. Increase the engine speed with the boat stationary to isolate
this cause. Propeller cavitation can also appear as noise on the display.
If the transducer is mounted too close to the propeller, the turbulence
generated can interfere with the sonar signal. Make sure that the
transducer is mounted at least 15” (380mm) from the propeller.
