USING CRUISE CONTROL

Cruise control can be activated while in heading lock mode or route playback mode

to maintain a constant trolling speed. It will automatically adjust the motor speed to

correct for current and wind conditions to maintain a constant speed.

!

WARNING

Avoid serious injury from colliding with other boats, running aground, or striking

objects in the water. The Pinpoint GPS system cannot detect other boats, shallow

water, or objects in the water. Always beware of possible obstructions to navigation

when operating in any Pinpoint GPS mode.

Setting Cruise Control

While in heading lock mode or route recall mode, you can set the cruise control by

pressing the cruise control button. The trolling motor will emit one ascending chirp

to indicate that the cruise control has been activated. The system will automatically

set a trolling speed of 1.0 mph (1.6 kph) and will compensate for current and wind

conditions to maintain this speed. Pressing the cruise control button again will turn

the cruise control off, indicated by a descending chirp from the trolling motor.
While cruise control is turned on, the GPS speed over ground can be adjusted by

pressing the increase speed (+) or decrease speed (–) buttons. Pressing either

button once will adjust the speed by 0.1 mph (0.16 kph) accordingly. For example, to

set the cruise control at 1.3 mph (2.1 kph), press the cruise control button, then

press the increase speed (+) button three times.
IMPORTANT: If the trolling motor loses the GPS signal while in any GPS mode, the

trolling motor will emit an error tone and automatically return to manual mode.
