Raymarine EV-100, Руководство по установке

Страница: 4 / 40

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.
• Make sure that all members of crew know how to disengage the
autopilot.
• Regularly check for other boats and any obstacles to navigation –
no matter how clear the sea may appear, a dangerous situation can
develop rapidly.
• Maintain an accurate record of the boat’s position by using either
a navigation aid or visual bearings.
• Maintain a continuous plot of your boat’s position on a current
chart. Ensure that the locked autopilot heading will steer the boat
clear of all obstacles. Make proper allowance for tidal set – the
autopilot cannot.
• Even when your autopilot is locked onto the desired track using a
navigation aid, always maintain a log and make regular positional
plots. Navigation signals can produce significant errors under
some circumstances and the autopilot will not be able to detect
these errors.
