Follow an Offset Distance from a Contour

You can set Contour Offset to maintain a set distance from a contour line. Contour Offset is a distance setting only, and does not
measure water depth. Input the Contour Offset based on your knowledge of the water depth in your current area.
If you have an AutoChart ZeroLine Map Card, and want to navigate along a bank or shoreline, use Contour Offset to maintain a safe
distance from the shoreline.
WARNING! Contour Offset does NOT account for changes in water depth. It is important to be aware of depth variations in your
current location and selected navigation route, and adjust the Contour Offset as needed.
1. Use the Cursor Control key to select a position on a contour line.
2. Press the GO TO key.
3. Select Follow the Contour. Press the RIGHT Cursor key.
4. Select Contour Offset.
5. Press the RIGHT or LEFT Cursor keys to set a distance from the contour line.
To remove the offset, set Contour Offset to 0 (zero).
6. Select a navigation direction from the submenu. Press the RIGHT Cursor key.
The navigation direction is previewed in orange or blue on the Chart View.
CAUTION! Be prepared for boat movement as the prop will automatically be enabled and the prop speed will automatically adjust
to move the boat to the contour. If the boat does not move, confirm the prop is turned on in the menu system (see
Propeller Controls).
