2. On the remote, press and hold the 'Turtle' (speed down) button.
3. Simultaneously, on the motor's control head, press and hold the 'magnifying glass' (pairing) button for 5 seconds.
4. You will hear three beeps, indicating a successful connection. Release both buttons.

2.4 Pairing the Wireless Foot Control

To pair the 2.4G wireless foot control with the motor:

1. Ensure the motor is connected to a power source.
2. On the foot control, press and hold the 'Turtle' (speed down) button.
3. Simultaneously, on the motor's control head, press and hold the 'magnifying glass' (pairing) button for 5 seconds.
4. You will hear three beeps, indicating a successful connection. Release both buttons.

3. Operating Instructions

3.1 Speed Control

The motor features one-way stepless speed control, allowing for smooth and precise adjustments to your desired speed. Use the speed up/down buttons on your remote or foot control to increase or decrease thrust.

3.2 Steering and Maneuvering

Steer the motor using the directional buttons on your wireless remote or foot control. The motor offers responsive steering for effective navigation. For optimal performance, ensure the motor is adequately submerged.

3.3 Tilting the Motor

The motor can be tilted from 0 to 85 degrees. This feature is useful for adjusting the propeller's depth, navigating shallow waters, or lifting the motor out of the water when not in use or for transport.

4. Maintenance

4.1 Battery Care

Regularly check the LED battery meter on the motor's control head to monitor power levels (100%, 50%, 20%). Ensure the battery is fully charged before each use and stored properly when not in use to prolong its lifespan.

4.2 General Care

After each use, especially in saltwater, rinse the motor with fresh water to prevent corrosion. Inspect the propeller for any debris or damage and clean as necessary. Store the motor in a dry, protected area.

5. Troubleshooting

If your trolling motor is not functioning as expected, consider the following common issues:

• Motor Not Responding: Ensure the battery is fully charged and all electrical connections are secure. Re-attempt the pairing process for both the wireless remote and foot control.
• Steering Issues: If the motor struggles to maintain a straight line or steering inputs are excessive, verify that the motor is properly mounted and the shaft is vertical. Check for any obstructions around the propeller or steering mechanism.
• Foot Control Unresponsive: Confirm the foot control's battery is charged and it is correctly paired with the motor. Some users have noted the foot pedal design may require significant foot movement for precise control; practice may improve usability.
