2.5.1 Chart card overview
Your unit reads FURUNO and NavCharts (NAVIONICS) charts, or C-MAP
charts, depending on the type of display unit you have.
When you insert a suitable chart card in the slot and your boat is near any
cartographic object, a chart appears. If a wrong card is inserted or a wrong chart
scale is selected, landmasses will appear hollow. Chart icons appear at the top
of the display to help you select a suitable chart scale. The table below shows
the chart icons and their meanings.
