Maintaining Your Heading

Before you can use autopilot features, you must calibrate the trolling motor (Calibrating the Trolling Motor Compass).

You can activate Heading Hold to keep your boat moving in the same compass direction. The motor may adjust your heading automatically to compensate for drift caused by factors such as wind and currents.

  1. Steer the boat in the direction you want to go.
  2. Press Heading hold icon.
NOTE: You can adjust the direction by pressing Left arrow and Right arrow , or by using gesture controls (Gesture Controls).
TIP: While using this autopilot mode, you can also maintain your speed using cruise control (Maintaining Your Speed).

To disable Heading Hold and return to manual mode, you must select Heading hold icon or Manual mode icon.
