See the Important Safety and Product Information guide in the compatible Garmin display device box for product warnings and other important information. Caution: Always wear safety goggles, ear protection, and a dust mask when drilling, cutting, or sanding. notiCe: When drilling or cutting, always check the opposite side of the drilling or cutting surface. Needed Tools and Supplies • Heat-shrink tubing and a heat gun • Cable ties • Additional NMEA 2000 cabling and connectors (optional) July 2009 190-01081-06 Rev. A Printed in Taiwan Determining an Installation Location When you are selecting a location to install the GFL 10 adapter, consider the following: • During installation, you connect the GFL 10 adapter to the analog gauge (or directly to the fluid-level sensor), and to the NMEA 2000 network. Therefore: . Choose a location that is within 173 in. (4.4 m) of the analog gauge (or the fluid-level sensor) to avoid splicing bare wires. . Choose a location between the NMEA 2000 backbone and the analog gauge (or the fluid- level sensor). . If you cannot connect the adapter directly to the NMEA 2000 network, add a drop cable. See page 3 for more information. • The adapter is IEC 60529 IPX7 waterproof, and can be submerged up to 30 minutes at 1 meter. Do not install the adapter in a location where it will be submerged regularly, though the location can be subject to wash-down. • You can use cable ties (not included) to secure the adapter to an existing structure on your boat. • You can use mounted-head cable ties (not included) and screws (not included) to secure the adapter to a bulkhead or other suitable surface on your boat. • Install the adapter at least 2 in. (5 cm) from a magnetic compass to prevent electromagnetic interference, which can cause inaccurate compass readings. Wiring the GFL 10 Adapter Connect the GFL 10 adapter either to an analog gauge or to the sender directly using the bare wires on the wiring harness. Wiring the GFL 10 Adapter to an Analog Gauge If your boat has an analog gauge representing the fluid level, you can wire the GFL 10 adapter directly to the gauge. Consult the owner’s manual provided by your boat or sensor manufacturer to determine the ground, sensor, and power (ignition) connections on the gauge. Typically, the power (ignition) connector is labeled with a “+”, a “+12V”, an “I”, or an “IGN” marking. The ground connector is typically labeled with a “-”, a “ ”, or a “G” marking, and the sensor connector is typically labeled with an “S” or a “G” marking. Do not remove any wires from the back of the gauge, and wire the GFL 10 adapter to the gauge according to the following table. Wiring the GFL 10 Adapter Directly to a Fluid-Level Sensor If your boat does not have an analog gauge representing the fluid level, you can wire the adapter directly to the fluid-level sensor. Consult the owner’s manual provided by your boat or sensor manufacturer to determine the sending and ground terminals on the sensor. Typically, the sending terminal is labeled with an “S” marking for sensor or a “G” marking for gauge, and the ground terminal is typically labeled with a negative sign (-). Wire the GFL 10 adapter to the sensor according to the following table.

This will reduce the risk of sparks near the fuel tank. notiCe: After connecting the adapter to the gauge or sensor, cover any exposed wires with heat- shrink tubing.
