Before the AA550 is used for anchoring, it is important to test it in a calm,
safe environment as follows: After the calibrations are saved, follow the in-
structions to raise and lower the anchor using both manual and automatic
operation. See Part 3 of this Manual. If the AA550 does not count, stop,
start or operate exactly as specified in the instructions or any diagnostic
messages appear on the LCD, refer immediately to Troubleshooting (Part 4
in this Manual) or to your supplier for assistance.
