4.10.3 Suppressing interference and noise
You may encounter occasional noise or intermittent interference on the display. This is
mostly caused by electrical equipment, engine, propeller noise from own ship, or noise from
other sonars being operated nearby. If interference appears, turn on the interference
rejector in the COM1 menu to suppress it. Note that the interference rejector cannot be
turned on/off independently for each frequency in case of the dual-frequency display.
