NOTE: When using Auto Guidance, a gray segment within 

any part of the magenta line indicates that Auto Guidance 

cannot calculate part of the Auto Guidance line. This is due 

to the settings for minimum safe water depth and minimum 

safe obstacle height.

Follow the magenta line, steering to avoid land, shallow 

water, and other obstacles.

The Auto Guidance feature is based on electronic chart 

information. That data does not ensure obstacle and bottom 

clearance. Carefully compare the course to all visual sightings, 

and avoid any land, shallow water, or other obstacles that may 

be in your path.
