### **Use of the Autopilot**

The autopilot is intended as an aid to steering a vessel, but it **never replaces the responsibility of the skipper or crew**. The system depends on the proper functioning of sensors, power supply, network connections, and external data sources (such as GPS and wind information).

The manufacturer or supplier **is not liable for any damage, injury, or loss** resulting from the use or failure of this autopilot, regardless of the circumstances.

The user is at all times responsible for:

* actively monitoring the vessel’s heading and surroundings;
* intervening in a timely manner when the situation requires it;
* properly installing and configuring the system.

Use the autopilot **only under appropriate weather and sailing conditions**, and make sure to test and understand how the system behaves before relying on it.
