With CoastKey, you also have the option to control up to four engines at the same time. It is recommended that the CoastKey system is installed by a professional, with good knowledge of electrical connections. Please read the user manual carefully before using the CoastKey system. Keep the user manual for future reference. Radio range The CoastKey system will normally provide you with a safety range of 6-10 meters from the location of the start panel. Keep in mind that the range will depend on the surroundings around the boat and where the start panel is placed. Therefore, the exact safety range will vary. It is important that you get familiar with the range after the system is installed. We recommend that you do a test of the safety range on board your boat. This should be done in open sea while you move around the boat. 3 1 3 2 5b Figure 1 Start Panel Figur 2 Master FOB 5a 4 6 Brief description of button features Start Panel 1. AUX1 up / number 1 2.
