• If the turns in the Auto Guidance line are too wide, select

Settings > Preferences > Navigation > Auto Guidance

> Shoreline Distance > Near.

If you selected Near or Far in step 6, review the placement of

the Auto Guidance line, and determine whether the line

safely avoids known obstacles and the turns enable efficient

travel.

Auto Guidance maintains a wide clearance from obstacles in

open water, even if you set the Shoreline Distance setting to

Near or Nearest. As a result, the chartplotter may not

reposition the Auto Guidance line, unless the destination

selected requires navigation through a narrow waterway.

Select an option:

• If the placement of the Auto Guidance line is satisfactory,

select Menu > Navigation Options > Stop Navigation,

and proceed to step 10.

• If the Auto Guidance line is too close to known obstacles,

select Settings > Preferences > Navigation > Auto

Guidance > Shoreline Distance > Farthest.

• If the turns in the Auto Guidance line are too wide, select

Settings > Preferences > Navigation > Auto Guidance

> Shoreline Distance > Nearest.

If you selected Nearest or Farthest in step 8, review the

placement of the Auto Guidance line, and determine

whether the line safely avoids known obstacles and the turns

enable efficient travel.

Auto Guidance maintains a wide clearance from obstacles in

open water, even if you set the Shoreline Distance setting to

Near or Nearest. As a result, the chartplotter may not

reposition the Auto Guidance line, unless the destination

selected requires navigation through a narrow waterway.

Repeat steps 3 through 9 at least once more, using a

different destination each time, until you are familiar with the

functionality of the Shoreline Distance setting.
