2.Release the key pressed to return to the previous mode (AUTO or NAV). You can operate the autopilot with the status before the DODGE mode.

Note: On Auto mode, the [PORT] and [STBD] keys can be used to change the course degree by 5º, 10º or 20º steps depending on the installation setting. It is useful when you need to change the large course degrees angle rapidly. However, the DODGE mode cannot be used when this function is available. For detail, ask your serviceman.
