Why does my depth finder keep beeping? Follow

If the unit is beeping it probably has a depth alarm set.

TO DISABLE THE ALARM:

Shallow Water Alarm:  The shallow alarm function can be set for depths ranging from 3 to 200 feet and triggers an alarm when the depth is less than the setting. You must be in the “Depth Sounder” mode to adjust this setting. To set the SHALLOW ALARM (upper alarm):

1. Press the "UP" key to access the shallow water alarm setting. The icon will illuminate and the indicator will blink.
2. Pressing the "UP" key will increase the selected value. Pressing the "DOWN" key will reduce the value. (you want to set to 0 to disable the alarm)
3. Pressing and releasing the key will change the value in 1-foot increments per second.
4. Holding down the key will change the value in 9-foot increments per second.
5. After the desired setting is achieved, the display will return to normal operation after 5 seconds. 6. The and indicators will now be illuminated to indicate that a shallow water alarm is set. When triggered, the alarm sounds an audible buzzer for ten seconds while flashing the warning LED and the and icons on the display. After 10 seconds, the audible alarm mutes and the warning LED and the and icons continue to blink until the depth increases, or the alarm is reset.
