Operator Warning!
An Autopilot is an aid to navigation only. It is not intended or designed to
replace the man on watch. Always be in position to monitor the boat’s heading
and to watch for navigational hazards. Be prepared to revert to manual steering
immediately, if an undesired change of heading occurs, if the heading is not
maintained within reasonable limits, or when navigating in a hazardous
situation.
Always remember: Whenever underway, a qualified man on watch is required.
It is the skippers responsibility to provide for a power safety switch, mounted
within reach for the helmsman, and to brief all crew members that the Nexus
Autopilot must be turned off with the red push-button
KEY
, to enable manual
steering.
