You are responsible for the safe and prudent operation of your vessel. The autopilot features on the trolling motor are tools that enhance your capability to operate your boat. They do not relieve you of the responsibility of safely operating your boat. Avoid navigational hazards and never leave the motor controls unattended.

WARNING

Always disconnect the motor from the battery before handling or working with the propeller, propeller drive motor, electrical connections, or electronics enclosures to avoid serious injury or property damage.

Always keep the remote control on your person when using the trolling motor. If the operation of the trolling motor needs to be changed or stopped at any time, you can press prop icon on the remote control, press on the foot pedal, or press Power button on the mount to stop the propeller.

CAUTION

When using the autopilot features, be prepared for sudden stops, acceleration, and turns.
