Use the radar only as a navigation aid. The final
navigation decision must always be made by the operator
him/herself. Making the final navigation decision based
only on the radar display may cause accidents such as
collisions or running aground.
CAUTION
When using the [AUTO RAIN] function, never set the
suppression level too high canceling out all image noises
from the rain or snow at close range.
Detection of not only echoes from the rain or snow but
also targets such as other ships or dangerous objects will
become inhibited.
When using the [AUTO RAIN] function, make sure to
choose the most appropriate image noise suppression
level.
When the chart position is corrected, the display will be
shifted away from the actual position. With this in mind,
navigate your ship with attention to the surroundings.
Otherwise, this may cause accidents.
