3. Wind Line: After setting the parameters, carefully wind your fishing line onto the spool. Ensure even tension to prevent issues during casting.

4.3 Charging the Reel

The reel is equipped with a USB Type-C charging port. Connect the provided USB cable to a compatible power source to charge the internal battery. Ensure the waterproof plug is securely closed after charging to protect the port from water ingress. Some models may also feature a solar panel for trickle charging.
