Always boat responsibly. Before starting, know your boat and waterway rules. Always follow your
boat manufacturer’s procedures of operation. Never overload the boat and be sure to wear your
life jacket at all times. Check your boat for all required safety equipment and never operate a
boat under the influence of alcohol. Check your local weather forecast before
leaving the dock and always provide a float plan to your marina, member of your family or friend.

EMC Installation Guidelines
FELL equipment and accessories are designed to the best industry standards for use in the
recreational marine environment. Their design and manufacture conforms to the appropriate
Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC) regulations, but correct installation is required to ensure
that performance is not compromised.
The guidelines given here describe the conditions for optimum EMC performance, but it is rec-
ognized that it may not be possible to meet all of these conditions in all situations. To ensure the
best possible conditions for EMC performance within the constraints imposed by any location,
always ensure the maximum separation possible between different items of electrical equipment.
For optimum EMC performance, it is recommended that wherever possible:
• FELL equipment and the cables connected to it are:
• At least 3 ft. (1 m) from any equipment transmitting or cables carrying radio signals e.g. VHF
radios, cables and antennas. In the case of SSB radios, the distance should be increased to
7 ft. (2 m).
• More than 7 ft. (2 m) from the path of a radar beam. A radar beam can normally be assumed to
spread 20 degrees above and below the radiating element.
• If possible the product is supplied from a separate battery from that used for engine start.
Power supply voltages below the minimum specified for a product, and starter motor transients,
can cause the product to reset. This will not damage the product, but may cause the loss of
some information and may change the operating mode.
• FELL specified cables are used. Cutting and rejoining these cables can compromise EMC
performance and must be avoided unless doing so is detailed in the installation manual.
Important information and caution
Read all instructions carefully before use of this product.
FELL Marine equipment and accessories are designed to the best industry standards for use in
the recreational marine environment. Their design and manufacture conforms to the appropriate
Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC) regulations, but correct installation is required to ensure
that performance is not compromised. Please see section EMC Installation Guidelines in the
User Manual for optimum EMC conditions.
Within the wireless range MOB+ will not shut down the engine automatically e.g. if you fall in
your boat within the wireless range the engine will not stop automatically. In this event, you
can shut down the engine by pressing the button on your MOB+ xFOB or on the MOB+ xHUB.
Always check your wireless range before use.
Make sure that the system is working properly before leaving the dock. Refer to the next page
in this User Manual for instructions on how to use the system and information about normal
system operations.
Always make sure to check the battery level sign on the xHUB before driving the boat. Confer
with section xFOB Battery in this User Manual to check how many hours there are left of battery
life on the xFOB.
Never attempt fast speed or dangerous maneuvers of the boat, especially if battery level is low
on the xFOB. Battery depletion of xFOB can cause sudden engine stop and result in loss of
control or maneuverability of the boat.
Never attempt any service of inside components in either the xHUB or the xFOB.
Warranty, Important Product- and Safety Information
For products sold in the US/CAN
Failure to avoid the following potentially hazardous situations could result in an accident or
collision resulting in death or serious injury.
Disclaimer
By using this device you agree upon all the following guidelines and information provided in
this document. Read all instructions carefully before using this device. Always boat responsibly.

Marine Operation Warnings
•
You are responsible for the safe and prudent operation of your vessel. This device is a
tool to enable you to enhance your safety while operating your vessel. It does not relieve
you from the responsibility of safely operating your vessel. Avoid navigational hazards and
never leave the helm unattended.
•
Always drive the boat carefully and in accordance with local laws.
•
Use this device only as a safety aid. This device does not replace the cord based kill
switch, and should be used at your own discretion and responsibility, knowing that in the
event that you fall in your vessel the system may not automatically shut down your engine.
•
This device will shut down your engine and give an alarm signal when you are out of
wireless range or falls into the water within 2 seconds. Within the wireless range this
device will not shut down the engine automatically e.g. if you fall in your boat within the
wireless range the engine will not stop automatically. In this event, you can shut down the
engine by pressing the button on your MOB+ xFOB or on the MOB+ xHUB. Always check
your wireless range before use. The wireless range in air may vary from 5 – 40 meters (15
- 120 feet) depending on the wireless environment surrounding your vessel.
•
Make sure that the system is working properly before leaving the dock. Refer to the section
Verify Installation in this User Manual for instructions on how to use the system and
information about normal system operations.
•
Always make sure to check the battery level sign on the xHUB before operating your
vessel. Confer with section xFOB Battery in this User Manual to check how many hours
there are left of battery life on the xFOB.
•
Never attempt fast speed or dangerous maneuvers of the boat, especially if battery level is
low on the xFOB. Battery depletion of xFOB can cause sudden engine stop and result in
loss of control or maneuverability of the boat.
•
Do not leave your xFOB in the boat unobserved, this to prevent easy theft of the boat if
the ignition key is also situated in the vessel. Please refer to the engine manufacturer for
information regarding ignition and starting procedure of the engine.
