Safety

You are responsible for the safe and prudent operation of your vessel. Your

TR-1 Gold autopilot and wireless remote is a tool that will enhance your

capability to operate your boat and catch fish. It does not relieve you from the

responsibility for safe operation of your vessel. You must avoid hazards to

navigation and never leave the helm unattended.

You must always be prepared to promptly regain manual control of your

kicker. The autopilot steering and throttle actuators can fail and hard over.

Learn to operate your autopilot on calm and hazard free waters.

Simultaneous operation of several radio-controlled autopilots in near

proximity may cause the autopilot to fail to respond to keypad button presses.

The near boat transmitter may jam your boat’s receiver but will not control

your autopilot or render the wired remote useless.

The Wireless remote will not respond as quickly to multiple button presses as

the wired remote.
On occasion, the wired remote will erroneously leave an indicator light on

the throttle up/down and idle resume indicators. If this creates a problem for

you, we can load an updated software version on your ECU to eliminate the

erroneous indicators.
There is a remote possibility that talking on a cellphone may interfere

with, and possibly jam the radio receiver. Please use caution.

Note:

The wireless remote keypad is not waterproof. Do not expose the remote

to rain or water spray. Water in the remote will cause it to malfunction

and possibly cause throttle runaway. In the event the remote does get

wet, remove the battery from the remote immediately. If the remote is

subject to salt-water incursion, remove the battery and gently rinse the

disassembled unit with clean alcohol and let it dry out before re-assembly

and reuse.
