Installation & User Manual, Radio Remote 8980/8981 

       Page 3

  You must always install at least one original Sidepower panel.

  With the boat on land, only run the thruster for a fraction of a second, as without resistance it 

will accelerate very fast to a damaging rpm.

  This manual is intended to support educated / experienced staff and is therefore not suf

fi

 cient 

in all details for the correct installation.

  When installed in boats approved or classi

fi

 ed according to international or special national 

rules, the installer is responsible for following the demands in accordance with these regula-
tions / classi

fi

 cation rules. The instructions in this guide can not be guaranteed to comply with 

all different regulations / classi

fi

 cation rules.

  The transmitter and the receiver have the same factory preset code so no programmng is nec-

essary. When additional transmitters are to be used, the receiver must be programmed again 
for all transmitters (please see programming section on page 7).

  If a Sidepower automatic main switch is 

fi

 tted, the “OFF” button on your transmitter will shut off 

the main switch providing no other control panels are “ON”.
