Dodging is useful in situations where you need to quickly take
control of the helm to steer around an obstruction, and then
resume the previous set heading. Dodging is activated by a quick
double press on the TURN/DODGE/INFO button.
When in DODGE mode the displayed set course is the last one
set prior to activating the dodge function. When DODGE is
displayed, the autopilot is no longer in control of the steering,
and you must either manually steer the boat in STBY mode or
take control using Non Follow Up or Follow Up steering. On
manual steering (STBY mode) the clutch or bypass valve in the
drive unit will be disengaged. The autopilot will remain in the
DODGE mode until you exit DODGE by a second press on the
TURN/DODGE/INFO button or select a mode.
