TROLLING MOTOR INSTALLATION AND OPERATION
Rotating propellers can cause serious injury or death. Never start or
operate the motor out of water.
2. Use the left turn and right turn buttons to steer the unit so that it is
facing straight ahead, parallel with the keel of the boat, with the nose cone
of the lower unit facing forward and the propeller facing aft.

3. Once the lower unit is positioned as close to parallel with the keel as
possible, press and hold the manual mode button, then press and
release the 1, 1, then 2 buttons in sequence. The trolling motor will emit
an audible tone, flash the status indicator light, and then return to manual
mode, completing the mounting angle calibration.
COMPASS CALIBRATION
IMPORTANT: This calibration is completed at the factory. It should be repeated
at the time of installation, if the Pinpoint GPS system is not performing as
expected, or if you have traveled a long distance from the last point of
calibration. This calibration may be done with the boat in the water using the
primary propulsion engine, or with the boat on the trailer. If the boat is on the
trailer, tow the boat in two circles. Two beeps will occur when very close to
completing the second circle. Listen for the tone to acknowledge a successful
calibration. The GPS light will turn off after command M111 is accepted. The
GPS light will turn on and a beep will occur, signaling a successful calibration.
IMPORTANT: A fixed GPS position is required to complete the compass
calibration. The Pinpoint GPS system will emit an audible tone once it has
acquired a fixed GPS position (in the default audio mode), and the GPS status
indicator light will illuminate.
