• Always ensure the boat's hatch is fully assembled and sealed before placing it in water to prevent water ingress.
• Do not touch the jet pump intake or outlet when the boat is powered on.
• Avoid operating the boat in extreme weather conditions such as strong winds or heavy rain.
• Always remove batteries from both the boat and the remote controller when not in use.

Setup

1. Charging the Boat Battery

Connect the boat's Lithium Polymer battery to the USB charging cable. Plug the USB cable into a compatible USB power source (e.g., computer USB port, USB wall adapter). The indicator light on the charger will show the charging status. Charge until the light indicates a full charge.

2. Installing Boat Battery

Carefully open the boat's top hatch. Connect the fully charged battery to the boat's power connector. Secure the battery within the compartment. Ensure the hatch is properly closed and sealed to prevent any water from entering during operation.

3. Installing Remote Controller Batteries

Open the battery compartment on the back of the 2.4Ghz remote controller. Insert 4x AA batteries (not included), ensuring correct polarity. Close the battery compartment securely.

4. Pairing the Remote

First, turn on the boat by connecting its battery. Then, turn on the remote controller. The remote should automatically pair with the boat. If pairing fails, turn both devices off and repeat the process. Refer to the remote's specific instructions if issues persist.

Operating Instructions

1. Launching the Boat

Gently place the boat into the water. The boat is equipped with safety sensors and will only activate its propulsion system when it detects contact with water.

2. Controlling Speed and Direction

Use the throttle trigger on the remote controller to control the boat's forward speed. Pull the trigger to accelerate. Use the steering wheel to turn the boat left or right. The jet pump propulsion system provides precise maneuverability.

3. Self-Righting Feature

In the event the boat capsizes, its self-righting hull design allows it to automatically flip back over. If it doesn't right itself immediately, try gently manipulating the throttle and steering on the remote to assist the recovery.

4. Water Cooling System

The UDI023PRO is equipped with an automatic water cooling system. This system circulates water around the motor to dissipate heat, ensuring optimal performance and extending the lifespan of the KV3500 brushless motor.

5. LED Lights

The boat features controllable front navigation and tail lights. These lights enhance visibility, making it easier to track your boat, especially during low-light conditions or at dusk.

6. Low Battery Alarm

The remote controller will provide an audible alarm when the boat's battery level is low. This serves as a warning to return the boat to shore before the battery is completely depleted, preventing loss of control.

Maintenance

1. After Each Use

• Remove the boat from the water immediately after use.
• Open the top hatch and carefully drain any accumulated water.
• Thoroughly dry the boat's interior and exterior with a soft, clean cloth.

2. Cleaning

• Inspect the hull and jet pump intake for any debris such as weeds, sand, or small particles. Remove any obstructions carefully.
• Clean the exterior of the boat with a damp cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals or solvents.

3. Battery Care

• Always disconnect and remove batteries from the boat and remote when storing.
• Store batteries in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures.
• Do not overcharge or completely over-discharge the Lithium Polymer batteries.

4. Storage

Store the boat in a dry, cool environment. Use the provided display stand to keep the hull elevated and prevent deformation.

Troubleshooting

Boat Not Responding

• Ensure both the boat's battery and the remote controller's batteries are fully charged and correctly installed.
• Verify that the boat is placed in water, as its propulsion system activates only upon water contact.
• If necessary, turn off both the boat and remote, then turn them back on to re-establish the connection.

Boat Capsizes Frequently

• Ensure you are operating the boat in calm waters, especially during initial uses.
• Practice the self-righting maneuver as described in the operating instructions.

Water Ingress into Hull

• Check that the double covers and hatch are properly sealed after battery installation.
• Inspect the hull for any visible cracks or damage that might compromise its waterproof integrity.

Reduced Speed or Performance

• Check the boat's battery charge level; low battery will reduce performance.
• Inspect the jet pump intake and outlet for any obstructions (e.g., weeds, debris) that might hinder water flow.
• Ensure the water cooling system intake is clear and functioning correctly.
