AutoWake ® AutoWake* is a patented system that will manipulate the ballast levels in order to achieve and maintain the best possible wake for surfing and wakeboarding.

To activate AutoWake, press the first display button twice on the unit.

If the display is powered down, it will come back with AutoWake off. AutoWake Countdown: Once all conditions are met in the AutoWake Inactive state, a countdown of 10 seconds will begin.
