2.2 Using Auto mode
CAUTION:
Before using Auto mode, make sure that the pilot has been
correctly commissioned.
Engaging the autopilot (Auto mode)
To engage the autopilot:
1. Steady the boat on the required heading.
2. Press auto:
• in Auto mode, the display shows the locked autopilot heading
CAUTION:
Autopilot course control makes it easier to sail a boat, but it is
NOT a substitute for good seamanship. ALWAYS maintain a
permanent watch by the helm.
Disengaging the autopilot (Standby mode)
Press standby to disengage the autopilot:
• in Standby mode, the display shows the boat’s current compass
heading.
• the last heading is memorized and can be recalled (see page 11).
