Raymarine Autopilot S1000 - Manual (Page 30)

30 Raymarine S1000 Autopilot
Safety alarm
When activated, the Safety alarm will sound 3 times at 1 second intervals.
This occurs when the autopilot is in control of your boat and:
• the S1000 loses contact with all of its controllers (including wired
controllers),
OR
• the S1000 loses GPS signal.
In both instances, the S1000 will revert to STANDBY and you will need to
take the helm.
General maintenance
Routine checks
The S1000 computer and S100 controller do NOT contain user-serviceable
parts. If you remove the main cover you will invalidate the warranty. It
should be serviced only by authorized Raymarine service technician.
As a result, user maintenance is limited to the following checks
• make sure all cable connectors are firmly attached and free of
corrosion
• examine for signs of wear or damage – replace any damaged
cables
• replace batteries when necessary
Cleaning the S1000 and S100
Take care when cleaning the display. Avoid wiping the display screen with a
dry cloth as this could scratch the screen coating. If necessary, only use a
mild detergent.
Never use chemical or abrasive materials to clean the computer or
controller. If it is dirty, wipe it with a clean, damp cloth.
