Do not rely on depth sounder to avoid sub-
merged objects. Depth sounders provide a
relative indication of water depth only.
Keep emergency stop switch lanyard free from
obstructions that could interfere with its opera-
tion. Do not modify or remove emergency
stop switch or bypass its safety features. The
proper use of the emergency stop switch will
prevent a runaway boat situation which can
cause severe personal injury or death.
NOTICE
DO NOT depend solely upon the depth
sounder for water depth. It is important to have
navigational charts of the waters in which you
are operating.
