Using the Start Panel, you can turn on the ignition and
start/stop the engine(s) without using a traditional key.

1. Check that all main power switches are turned “ON”.
2. Enter the PIN code (the factory-set code is 1-2-3-4) (LED flashes GREEN every 3 seconds).
3. Press the “ON/OFF” button to turn on the ignition (LED flashes ORANGE).
4. Press the “START” button to start the engine(s).
5. If you have a remote control (2-button or 5-button FOB) connected to the system and this FOB is not detected, a warning sound will be heard. (LED flashes ORANGE).

NOTE! This is to make you aware that the wireless kill switch function is not activated, since the system has no connection with the FOB.

6. Press a button on the FOB to connect it.
7. The warning sound on the Start Panel stops. (LED shows GREEN)
8. If you do not have the FOB with you, the beeping will stop after 5 beeps.

(The LED will stop flashing ORANGE and then show RED)

NOTE! In this case the kill switch function will not be active, but the boat can still be used as normal. Remember to use the manual kill switch lanyard.

9. Press the “ON/OFF” button to stop the engine(s) and turn off the ignition.

NOTE: If your boat was delivered with the standard PIN code 1-2-3-4, remember to change it to a code of your own choosing to prevent unauthorised persons from starting the boat. See how under “Changing the PIN code” later in this booklet.

NOTE: If the “ON/OFF” button is not pressed within 60 seconds of entering the PIN, the panel will lock and the PIN code must be entered again.

NOTE: The Start Panel has backlighting in the buttons. The backlighting turns on when the main power is switched on and then each time a button is pressed. The backlighting turns off after 60 seconds.

· The CoastKey system must only be used on board the vessel it is fitted in and within a radius of 6-10 metres from the helm position.

· The FOB must always be activated and attached to the captain for MOB (Man Overboard) to work.

· If you have several remotes (FOBs), only one must be active while under way.

· The remote (FOB) should only be in the water in a genuine man-overboard situation.

· The CoastKey system will only stop the engine(s) if the captain falls overboard with the FOB attached to them. CoastKey will NOT stop the engine(s) automatically if you fall over on board the boat.

· The FOB unit is designed to float if it falls into the water. Note that adding weight attached to the FOB unit will cause the FOB unit to sink.

· If there are several wireless systems on board the vessel, this may affect the operating stability of the CoastKey system.

· External radio interference may affect the operating stability of the CoastKey system.

· The CoastKey system may interfere with electronically operated medical equipment. Contact your authorised healthcare professional and carefully read the instructions from the manufacturer of your medical devices before using the CoastKey system near pacemakers or other similar electronically operated medical equipment.

· The FOB must not be near metal surfaces or carbon during use, as this will degrade the radio signals.

· If the system behaves abnormally, you must switch off the main power switch immediately.

Read through all instructions, the disclaimer and warnings in full before using this product. By using this device you accept all the guidelines and information provided in this document.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION

The CoastKey system generates, uses and radiates radio frequency (RF) energy, and if it is not installed and used correctly in accordance with the instructions, it may cause interference to radio communications and other electronic equipment.

It is not permitted to disassemble or modify the hardware or software of the CoastKey system. CoastKey devices are designed and manufactured to communicate only with CoastKey devices. External RF signals may affect incorrectly installed or inadequately shielded electronic operating systems, entertainment systems and personal medical equipment.

While most modern electronic equipment is shielded against external RF signals, you should contact the manufacturer or contact CoastKey for support. For personal medical equipment (such as pacemakers, cardiac stimulators and hearing aids), contact your doctor or the manufacturer to find out whether they are adequately shielded against external RF signals.

In the unlikely event that you experience interference with other electronic devices, you can contact customer support at: www.coastkey.no or contact the manufacturer of the respective electronic device. The CoastKey system must not be used in areas where you are not permitted to use mobile devices. There are some places where RF signals may pose a hazard, such as healthcare facilities and construction sites. If you are unsure, look around for signs indicating that two-way radios or mobile phones should be switched off, or simply stop using the device until you are away from these areas.

The operating stability may be affected by signals from other wireless systems present on the vessel. The operating stability may also be affected by signals from external electromagnetic sources.

Portable electronic devices, including CoastKey devices, emit radio signals that may interfere with aircraft communication or aircraft control, navigation and other electronic equipment on board, and should be switched off during flights.

OPERATING YOUR BOAT RESPONSIBLY

· Operate the boat responsibly.

· You are responsible for the safe and proper operation of the vessel.

· Check the general condition of the boat before leaving the harbour and ensure that all applicable safety equipment is operational.

· Review the operation of the CoastKey system with all passengers on the vessel. Make sure they understand how to restart the boat in the event of a “man overboard” situation.

· Always follow all operating instructions from the boat manufacturer.

· Know and follow all local maritime rules and regulations.

· Do not overload your boat.

· Life jackets must always be worn.

· Never operate a boat under the influence of alcohol.

· Always check the local weather forecast before a trip.

· Complete a trip plan before boarding the boat and share it with a trusted person who will notify the Coastguard, or another rescue agency, if you do not return or check in as planned. If your plans change or you will be delayed, inform the person holding your trip plan.

· Do not leave the helm unattended.

· The CoastKey system is intended to enhance your safety while operating the boat, but it does not relieve you of responsibility for the safe operation of the vessel. The system is not intended to fully replace the physical kill cord.

IMPORTANT PRODUCT AND SAFETY INFORMATION

The CoastKey system will switch off the engine within 2 seconds and give an alarm signal if the captain falls into the water or is outside the wireless range. The CoastKey system will not switch off the engine if the captain falls over on board the boat within the wireless range. In this case the captain can manually switch off the engine by pressing and holding the “ON/OFF” button on the FOB. Always test the wireless range on board the boat before use. The wireless range may vary from 6 – 30 metres depending on the wireless environment around the boat.

Always make sure that the system is working properly before leaving the quay (see the user manual for these instructions).

Always check the battery level of the FOB before using the vessel (see the user manual for more information).
