2. Precautions
To avoid damage to your DOCKMATE and hurting yourself or others, you
should read the following safety precautions before using the device. Keep
these safety instructions in an area where all users can read them.
When in doubt, contact PPA-Electronics regarding the use or operation of the
unit.
PPA-Electronics is not responsible for injuries or damage caused as a result of
improper use or installation by a non-qualified technician.
2.1. Before taking command with Dockmate make sure that all levers
controlling the engines and thruster are in neutral position
2.2. The transmitter is sensitive to magnetic fields. Keep
it at least 1m from any devices that generate
magnetic fields like compasses. Otherwise the
operation of the joystick can be disturbed.
2.3. Your Dockmate transmitter has been designed to seamlessly interact
with a Dockmate Cradle (wireless charger) powered by the Dockmate
Receiver. If your Dockmate Cradle is not powered by the receiver but
directly by the mains or if you’re using another Qi
certified charger do not put the transmitter that is
switched on onto the wireless charger. Always
switch it off first, before charging. The charger
generates a magnetic field, that will disturb the joystick
when it is turned on.
2.4. Do not disassemble the transmitter or receiver.
Touching the internal parts may lead to injuries. Repairs may only be
performed by licensed technicians.
2.5. Do not use near flammable gases or liquids.
This may cause an explosion or fire.
