Use recommended number and type of cells for every ignition type 

The product is specified for RC engines only (other use must be approved by the manufacturer) 

Do not take off the plug cap if the ignition is on 

Danger of electric injury (voltage over 20,000V) 

Recharge ignition battery only outside the model 

Because of possible interferences, ignition and battery should be placed at least 25 cm from the receiver

The manufacturer is not responsible for damages caused by not following the manual or by using the ignition for anything 

other than RC engines. Guarantee is void if the high voltage (HV) cable or HV isolation is damaged, the pickup or batteries are

Solution

changing the Ignition Timing

If using the battery test function

- Make sure plug cap is attached to the plug

- Turn on ignition and power up

-  Wait about 90 seconds until sleep mode is active; LED will 

begin flashing once per second

-  If battery test is enabled (jumper is plugged) remove the 

jumper from programming pins

-  Wait about 3 seconds; a flashing sequence changes itself

-  Unplug battery

-  Plug jumper back (to enable battery test)

If not using the battery test function

-  If battery test is disabled (jumper is removed), plug the jumper 

to programming pins

-  Wait about 3 seconds until flashing sequence changes 

-  Unplug battery

-  Unplug jumper back (to disable battery test)

To  change silencer type, repeat the procedure again:  

short muffler 

 tuned pipe 

 short muffler, etc.
