Changing the Cruise Control Mode
There are two modes of cruise control: RPM mode and speed
mode. To use the vessel speed to control the cruise function, a
paddle wheel must be installed, or a SmartCraft GPS puck must
be installed. Using the engine RPM to control the cruise function
will cause the vessel speed to vary based on the conditions the
vessel encounters: wind, waves, or current. Using the vessel
speed to control the cruise function will cause the engine RPM to
fluctuate more, based on the conditions the vessel encounters:
wind, waves, or current. Changing the cruise control mode can
be done when the troll control is turned on or off.
1. To change the mode of cruise control, press and hold the
"MODE" button until the screen changes the mode of cruise
control.

2. The operation of the cruise control in speed mode is the
same as RPM mode. Shift the drive unit into forward gear.
The throttle must be above the set cruise speed for the
"Smart Tow" cruise to function. When the throttle is moved
below the set cruise engine speed, the engine RPM will
decrease with the throttle movement.
3. Press the "–" button to decrease the speed. Press the "+"
button to increase the speed.
