losecontroloftheremote-controlledmodels!For2.4GHzremotecontrolsystems,alwayscheckthat
concurrent operation of two or more remote control systems in direct proximity is possible without interfer-
ences.
 • Regularlycheckthefunctionalreliabilityofyourmodelandtheremotecontrolsystem.Watchoutforany
visible damage such as defective plug connections or damaged cables. All moving parts on the model
must run smoothly but must not have any tolerance in the bearing.
 • Chargethedrivebattery,whichisnecessaryforoperation,aswellastherechargeablebatterythatmay
be inserted in the remote control according the manufacturer's instructions.
 • Ifbatteriesareusedasatransmitterpowersupply,makesurethattheyhavesufcientremainingcapacity
(batterychecker).Ifthebatteriesareempty,alwaysreplacethecompleteset,neverindividualcellsonly.

unexpected reactions of the receiver system may occur and the ship propeller might start up unintention-
ally! Danger of accident and injury!
 • Alwaysalignthetransmitteraerialsothattheaerialtippointsupwardsasverticallyaspossibleinthe
transmitter position favoured by you to operate your model. Otherwise, the transmitter may not send its
control signals as well as possible, which may cause considerable reduction of the range.

 • Selectasuitablebodyofwatertooperateyourmodelin.Indoubt,askthepersonresponsibleforthebody
of water whether operation of your model is permitted there.
 • Theselectedbodyofwatermustbefreeofclimbers(e.g.seaweed)foroperationofyourmodel.There
alsomustbenoobjects(e.g.branches)oatinginthewater.
