8.2.3 Before travelling
Observe the following points before each use of your Torqeedo system to ensure
a safe trip.
•
Familiarise yourself with the travel area before setting off, as the range
shown in the onboard computer does not take into account wind, current
and direction of travel, and plan a sufficient buffer for the required range.
•
If there is visible damage to components or cables, the Cruise system must
not be switched on.
•
Ensure that everyone on board is wearing a lifejacket.
•
Attach the emergency stop magnetic pin lanyard or kill switch cord to the
skipper's wrist or lifejacket before launching.
•
The battery state of charge must be checked at all times while on the move.
•
Only apply the emergency stop magnetic chip or the kill switch cord when
there are no more people in the water (e.g. after bathing breaks), or remove
it immediately if people fall into the water to stop the drive.
•
Also observe all information from the “Safety” and “Before use” sections.
