WARNING!
Danger to life from a boat which is not manoeuvrable!
This can result in severe physical injuries or death.
■
Before starting a trip, inform yourself of the intended travel area, and take
note of the predicted weather and water conditions.
■
Depending on the size of the boat, keep the typical safety equipment ready
(anchor, paddles, means of communication, auxiliary drive if necessary).
■
Check the system for mechanical damage before setting out on a trip.
■
Do not use the system unless it is in proper working order.
6.1 System start
In order to start the DEEP BLUE system, the remote throttle lever must be brought
into the neutral position. If the Emergency Stop Switch was previously triggered,
then it must again be placed in the initial position.
The system starts after the key switch has been turned. The remote throttle
lever beeps once and the Select LED (6) lights up. With a double remote throt-
tle lever, Select LEDs (4) and (6) light up in red,
see "Fig. 36: Display overview",
page 35
. The colour changes to orange within five seconds.
The drive is available, and runs in emergency mode (
see Chapter 6.3.1, "Emergency
mode"
), until the further system functions are ready and the colour of the Select LED
(6) changes to green. With a double remote throttle lever, the Select LEDs (6) and (4)
light up in green. This should not take longer than 20 to 30 seconds.
If the Select LEDs continue to flash red, an error has occurred. It may be possible to
correct this error by restarting the system.
