ii ST7002 SmartPilot Controller Operating GuideYour Raymarine 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 alltimes by following these basic rules:• Ensure that someone is present at the helm AT ALL TIMES, to take manualcontrol 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 matterhow clear the sea appears, a dangerous situation can develop rapidly.• Maintain an accurate record of the boat’s position by using either a naviga-tion aid or visual bearings.• Maintain a continuous plot of your boat’s position on a current chart. Ensurethat the locked autopilot heading will steer the boat clear of all obstacles.Make proper allowance for tidal set – the autopilot cannot.• Even when your autopilot is locked onto the desired track using a navigationaid, always maintain a log and make regular positional plots. Navigation sig-nals can produce significant errors under some circumstances and the autopi-lot will not be able to detect these errors.Product disposalWaste Electrical and Electronic (WEEE) DirectiveThe WEEE Directive requires the recycling of waste electrical andelectronic equipment.Whilst the WEEE Directive does not apply to some of Raymarine's products, wesupport its policy and ask you to be aware of how to dispose of this product.The crossed out wheelie bin symbol, illustrated above, and found on our productssignifies that this product should not be disposed of in general waste or landfill.Please contact your local dealer, national distributor or Raymarine TechnicalServices for information on product disposal.EMC ConformanceAll Raymarine equipment and accessories are designed to the best industrystandards for use in the recreational marine environment.
