Safety notices

WARNING: Product installation

This equipment must be installed and operated in accordance with the

instructions contained in this handbook. Failure to do so could result in

poor product performance, personal injury and/or damage to your

boat.

CAUTION:

Before installing the SmartPilot computer and drive unit, check that

they are the correct voltage for your boat’s supply.

As correct performance of the boat’s steering is critical for safety, we

STRONGLY RECOMMEND that an Authorized Raymarine Service

Representative fits this product. You will only receive full warranty benefits

if you can show that an Authorized Raymarine Service Representative has

installed or commissioned this product.

WARNING: Electrical safety

Make sure the power supply is switched off before you make any

electrical connections.

WARNING: Calibration

We supply this product calibrated to default settings that should provide

initial stable performance for most boats. To ensure optimum

performance on your boat, you must complete Chapter 2: SmartPilot

Commissioning.

WARNING: Navigation aid

Although we have designed this product to be accurate and reliable,

many factors can affect its performance. As a result, it should only be

used as an aid to navigation and should never replace common sense and

navigational judgement. Always maintain a permanent watch so you

can respond to situations as they develop.

Your SmartPilot 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 man-

ual 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 mat-

ter how clear the sea may appear, a dangerous situation can develop rap-

idly.
