could result in poor product performance, personal injury
and/or damage to your boat.

WARNING: Calibration
We supply this product calibrated to default settings that should

WARNING: Navigation aid
Although we have designed this product to be accurate and
reliable, many factors can affect its performance. As a result, it
should only be used as an aid to navigation and should never
replace common sense and navigational judgement. Always
maintain a permanent watch so you can respond to situations as
they develop.
Your Raymarine autopilot will add a new dimension to your boating
enjoyment. However, it is the skipper’s responsibility to ensure the
safety of the boat at all times by following these basic rules:
• Ensure that someone is present at the helm AT ALL TIMES, to
take manual control in an emergency.
