Introduction

See the Important Safety and Product Information guide in the

product box for product warnings and other important

information.

You are responsible for the safe and prudent operation of your

vessel. The autopilot is a tool that will enhance your capability to

operate your boat. It does not relieve you from the responsibility

of safely operating your boat. Avoid navigational hazards and

never leave the helm unattended.

Always be prepared to promptly regain manual control of your

boat.

Learn to operate the autopilot on calm and hazard-free open

water.

Use caution when operating the autopilot near hazards in the

water, such as docks, pilings, and other boats.

The autopilot system continuously adjusts the steering of your

boat to maintain a constant heading. In addition to the basic

heading-hold functionality, the system allows manual steering

and several modes of automatic-steering functions and

patterns.

You can operate the autopilot system using the helm control

device. Using the helm control, you engage and steer, set up,

and customize the autopilot system.

For information about installing, see the installation instructions

for each device.
