Steering Wheel
Your Regal utilizes a power steering system controlled by a steering
wheel. While in forward gear, to turn your bow to starboard, rotate
the steering wheel clockwise to starboard from the straight position.
To turn to port while moving forward, simply rotate the steering wheel
counter-clockwise. In reverse, rotation of the wheel achieves the same
effect, only it controls the stern of the boat. A button on the bottom
locks/unlocks the steering wheel tilt which can be manipulated for
maximum comfort while boating.
Typical Steering Wheel
Ignition Panel
The ignition switch features four positions; off, run, start, and auxiliary
(aux.) The start position is spring loaded and the key should be held
in this position to engage the starter. Once the engine has started,
release the key from the start position. It will then be energized in
the run position. Be a smart skipper and remove the ignition key
from the ignition switch, especially with children aboard and when
there are persons in the water. The ignition switch auxiliary position
is used when the engine is “off ”. With the key in the far left auxiliary
position, the stereo can be activated without sending current through
the engine wiring circuit. It supplies power only to the stereo unit.
