autopilot is in Auto mode. Check that the display shows

2. Turn the course change knob clockwise. Check that the rudder
moves to starboard a few degrees and then stops.

Note: If the rudder overshoots and has to drive back or starts to hunt
back and forth, you will need to increase the rudder damping level as
described in Step 5 (see page 45).
