Important safety notes
You have acquired a kit that can be assembled into a fully working RC model - when fitted out with suitable
accessories. However, GRAUPNER has no control over whether you observe the instructions for the
installation and operation of the model or the use and maintenance of the associated components. For this
reason GRAUPNER assumes no liability for losses, damage, or costs, which are incurred due to the
incorrect use of our products or due to improper behaviour on the part of the user, or which are connected
with such operation in any way. Unless otherwise prescribed by binding law, the obligation of GRAUPNER
to pay compensation for any reason whatsoever (including personal injury, death, damage to buildings,
damage due to loss of business or turnover, interruption of business, or other direct or indirect consequent
damage) stemming from the operation of the model is excluded.
The total liability in all cases and under all circumstances is limited to the amount of money that you actually
paid for this model.
This model is started up and operated at the sole and exclusive risk of the operator. To avoid injuring
people and damaging property, it is essential to be careful and thoughtful when operating your
model.
Before operating the model for the first time, check whether the operation of model ships of this kind is
covered by your private liability insurance. If necessary, purchase a special RC model liability insurance
policy.
These safety notes must be retained and provided to the buyer if sold to another person.
The following items must be observed:
•
The model is not suitable for children under 14 years old.
•
Because of the high speed,
never
operate the model when people or animals are in the water, because
this represents a great danger of injury to them.
•
Do not operate your model in nature preserves, landscape protection areas, or water conservation
districts. Find out from your local government which waters are approved for model shipbuilders.
•
Never operate the model in salt water.
•
Never operate the model in adverse weather conditions, such as rain, thunderstorm, strong wind, or in
high waves or strong currents, et cetera.
•
Before you fly the model, check that the radio control system is working reliably, and that all connections
are safe and secure.
•
Observe the operating information on the installed remote control system and accessories.
•
Ensure that the channel you intend to use is not already in use. Never operate the model if you are not
certain that your channel is free.
•
Work on the parts of the drive system
only
with the motor power supply disconnected.
•
When the drive battery is connected, you and other persons must
never
get near the ship's propeller,
because it poses a substantial risk of injury.
