Warning and safety notices
This is a model that – together with appropriate accessories – can become a functional RC model. GRAUP-
NER/SJ cannot monitor adherence to the assembly and operating instructions for the model nor can
GRAUPNER/SJ supervise the installation, operation or maintenance of the model and its components.
There-fore GRAUPNER/SJ accepts no liability whatsoever for losses, damage or costs that arise from im-
proper op-eration, improper behavior or which are associated with same in any manner. Unless mandated by
prevail-ing law, the obligation of the GRAUPNER/SJ company to provide damage compensation arising from
the use of the model, regardless of the grounds, is excluded (this exclusion includes personal injury, death,
damage to buildings or structures as well as sales and business losses, consequential damage for business
inter-ruption or other direct and indirect consequential damages).
Total liability under all circumstances and in each case is limited to the amount actually paid for this model.
Attention!
Never reach into a running propeller or attempt to hold the propeller by hand when it is operating.
This leads to hand injuries. Rotational forces can readily cause the propeller to get out of control.
Attention!
Never put objects/foreign materials into a running propeller. Always ensure that objects/foreign
materials can-not get into the propeller when it is running. If this does happen, the propeller‘s sudden
imbalance can cause heavy damage to the model. Persons in the vicinity can be severely injured by
parts hurled through the air.
Attention!
Never dwell in front or back of a propeller. Improper assembly or unforeseen circumstances can
cause the propeller to come off of its shaft. Stop the propeller if unusual noises are heard.
Attention!
The propeller must be securely attached. Do not direct the propeller toward persons or animals, do
not test the propeller in the hand. Never dwell in front of a propeller. Unforeseen circumstances can
cause the propeller to come off of its shaft. Persons in the vicinity can be severely injured by parts
hurled through the air.
Attention!
Do not touch any part of the drive train (i.e. motor + pro shaft) while it is operating as this can
lead to injuries. Allow the motor, shaft, regulator and battery time to cool off after operation before
touching any of these parts!
Warning!
Operating the model while under the influence of medication, alcohol, drugs, etc. is forbidden.
Attention!
Ensure that the operation of model boats is permitted on the given body of water.
Attention!
The operator of a model ship must be aware of the legal stipulations before putting a model ship
into operation because a model ship is subject to applicable laws. Applicable laws are always to be
followed in every case. In this respect, pay attention to the laws applicable in the given country. Be-
fore operating the model for the first time, check if your private liability insurance provides coverage
for model ships of this type. If this is not the case, obtain special liability insurance coverage for RC
models.
