Low Battery Alert

• The bait boat features a low battery warning system. Pay attention to any visual or audible alerts from the boat or remote control.
• When a low battery alert is triggered, immediately return the boat to shore to avoid losing it.

Maintenance

• Cleaning: After each use, especially in saltwater, rinse the boat thoroughly with fresh water to remove any debris, salt, or bait residue. Wipe dry with a soft cloth.
• Battery Care: Store batteries in a cool, dry place. Do not store fully charged or fully depleted for extended periods. Charge them to about 50-60% for long-term storage.
• Propeller Inspection: Regularly check the propellers for any fishing line, weeds, or other obstructions. Remove them carefully to prevent damage to the motors.
• Seals and Gaskets: Inspect all seals and gaskets around battery compartments and other openings to ensure they are intact and free from damage, maintaining the boat's waterproof integrity.
• Remote Control: Keep the remote control dry and clean. Remove batteries if storing for an extended period.

Troubleshooting

• Boat not responding to remote:
  - Ensure both the boat and remote are powered on.
  - Check battery levels for both devices.
  - Ensure you are within the 300m operating range.
  - Re-pair the remote and boat if necessary (refer to specific pairing instructions if provided with your model, typically involves powering on in a specific sequence).
• Boat not moving straight:
  - Use the Left/Right Trim buttons on the remote control to adjust the boat's tracking.
• Bait hoppers not opening:
  - Check for any obstructions in the hopper mechanism.
  - Ensure the boat has sufficient power.
• Short operating time:
  - Ensure batteries are fully charged before use.
  - Consider upgrading to a higher capacity battery (e.g., 12000mAh or 18000mAh) for longer runtime.
• Lights not working:
  - Press the Lighting Button on the remote to cycle through modes.
  - Check for physical damage to the LEDs.

User Tips

• Pre-check: Always perform a quick visual inspection of the boat and remote before each outing. Check for any loose parts, propeller obstructions, or signs of damage.
• Range Awareness: While the boat has a 300m range, always operate within a comfortable visual distance to react to unexpected situations.
• Battery Management: Carry a spare charged battery for the boat, especially for longer fishing sessions, to maximize your time on the water.
• Practice: Familiarize yourself with the remote control functions and boat handling in calm waters before attempting complex maneuvers or bait drops.
