not avoided.
CAUTION
Indicates a condition that can cause minor or moderate injury if
not avoided.
Warning, Caution
Mandatory Action
Prohibitive Action
Please read these safety instructions before you operate the equipment.
Do not open the equipment unless
you are well familiar with electrical
circuits.
Only qualified personnel should work
inside the equipment.
Do not set the course changing
speed too high.
The boat will be turned too sharply at
the course change, which could create
a very dangerous situation.
Do not use the autopilot in the
following situations:
- Harbor entrance or narrow channel
- Where vessels change course often,
such as a cape or small island
Observe the following cautions when
using the autopilot:
- Maintain a vigilant watch
- Watch for drifting of vessel
In an emergency, manually steer the
vessel.
The autopilot cannot avoid vessels, etc.
automatically.
Do not use the SIMULATION mode on
the boat.
The rudder may move suddenly. This is
a special-purpose mode for technicians.
WARNING
WARNING
WARNING LABEL
A warning label is attached to the processor unit.
Do not remove the label. If the label is missing or
damaged, contact your dealer about replacement.
WARNING
To avoid electrical shock, do not
remove cover. No user-serviceable
parts inside.
Name: Warning Label (1)
Type: 86-003-1011
Code No.: 100-236-231
WARNING
WARNING
Do not use the ORBIT mode in rough
seas.
Because the boat turns a 360°circle
around the waypoint, a large wave or
strong wind can cause the boat to
capsize.
For the figure-eight mode, confirm that
no object is in the general vicinity
of the waypoint.
The distance from the waypoint to the
turning point depends on boat's speed.
CAUTION
In case of power failure, turn off the
autopilot or manually steer the vessel.
Leaving the equipment in the AUTO or
NAV mode during power failure will cause
wear on the rudder mechanism.
Use the correct fuse.
Use of a wrong fuse can cause fire or
damage the equipment.
