PRODUCT INSTALLATION AND OPERATION

USING CRUISE CONTROL

Cruise control can be activated while in heading lock mode or route playback mode
to maintain a constant trolling speed. It will automatically adjust the motor speed to
correct for current and wind conditions to maintain a constant speed.
Avoid serious injury from colliding with other boats, running aground, or striking
objects in the water. The Pinpoint GPS system cannot detect other boats, shallow
water, or objects in the water. Always beware of possible obstructions to navigation
when operating in any Pinpoint GPS mode.

Setting Cruise Control

While in heading lock mode or route recall mode, you can set the cruise control by
pressing the cruise control button. The trolling motor will emit one ascending chirp
to indicate that the cruise control has been activated. The system will automatically
set a trolling speed of 1.0 mph (1.6 kph) and will compensate for current and wind
conditions to maintain this speed. Pressing the cruise control button again will turn
the cruise control off, indicated by a descending chirp from the trolling motor.
While cruise control is turned on, the GPS speed over ground can be adjusted by
pressing the increase speed (+) or decrease speed (–) buttons. Pressing either
button once will adjust the speed by 0.1 mph (0.16 kph) accordingly. For example, to
set the cruise control at 1.3 mph (2.1 kph), press the cruise control button, then
press the increase speed (+) button three times.
IMPORTANT: If the trolling motor loses the GPS signal while in any GPS mode, the
trolling motor will emit an error tone and automatically return to manual mode.
