30 ST8001+ Smartpilot Controller Operating Guide
3.2 General maintenance
Routine checks
CAUTION:
The SmartPilot computer and controller do not contain any user
serviceable parts. It should be serviced only by authorized Raymarine
service technician.
The SmartPilot computer does NOT contain user-serviceable parts. If you
remove the main cover you will invalidate the warranty. The controller is also
a sealed unit. As a result, user maintenance is limited to the following checks
• make sure all cable connectors are firmly attached
• examine for signs of wear or damage – replace any damaged cables
Note: Do not use chemical or abrasive materials to clean the SmartPilot
computer. If the case is dirty, wipe it with a clean, damp cloth.
Cleaning the display
CAUTION:
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 controller. If it is
dirty, wipe it with a clean, damp cloth.
• In certain conditions, condensation may appear inside the display screen.
This will not harm the unit, and you can clear it by switching on the illu-
mination for a short time.
EMC advice
• When powered up, all electrical equipment produces electromagnetic
fields. These can cause adjacent pieces of electrical equipment to interact
with one another, with a consequent adverse effect on operation.
• To minimize these effects and enable you to get the best possible perfor-
mance from your Raymarine equipment, guidelines are given in the
installation instructions, to enable you to ensure minimum interaction
between different items of equipment, i.e. ensure optimum Electromag-
netic Compatibility (EMC).
• Always report any EMC-related problems to your nearest Raymarine
dealer. We use such information to improve our quality standards.
