For maximum benefit, please read this manual carefully before installation and use. This manual describes how to use and set up the G-PILOT 3380 and the associated equipment. This manual also explains how to operate the G-PILOT 3380 effectively and provides troubleshooting and performance tips. Important Notice: • It is the owner’s sole responsibility to install and use the instrument and transducer(s) in a manner that will not cause accidents, personal injury or property damage. The user of this product is solely responsible for observing safe boating practices. It is vital to the performance of the G-PILOT that the transducers are installed in the best location. Please follow the installation instructions very carefully. The choice, location, and installation of all components in any G-PILOT system is critical. If installation is not correct, the unit can not perform at its designed potential. If in doubt, consult your Navman dealer. Ensure that any holes that are cut are in a safe position and will not weaken the boat’s structure. If in doubt, consult a qualified boat builder. • • • • Using the G-PILOT 3380: • • • • The G-PILOT 3380 is intended to aid a helmsman from having to steer for long periods of time, not as the main means of steering the boat. The G-PILOT 3380 is not intended for use in extreme weather, in adverse conditions or in water near other boats, dangerous waters or land. The G-PILOT 3380 can not control the boat better than a helmsman. In adverse conditions steer the boat manually. Never leave the helm unattended. Keep a watch at all times. The helmsman should always monitor the course of the boat and the G-PILOT 3380 and be ready to resume steering the boat manually. The performance of the G-PILOT 3380 can be affected by the failure of a part, environmental conditions, improper installation and use. • Note: The User is to be aware that when the G-PILOT is powered on, the Control Dial and Dodge keys are active and can operate the rudder at any time (see Power Steering modes 1-1-3) NAVMAN NZ LIMITED DISCLAIMS ALL LIABILITY FOR ANY USE OF THIS PRODUCT IN A WAY THAT MAY CAUSE ACCIDENTS, DAMAGE OR THAT MAY VIOLATE THE LAW.
