On contact with the water the status LED next to the ON/OFF-switch lights up con-
tinuously, indicating that a charged battery is being used.
When the boat battery is almost empty, the status LED will start to fl ash regularly.
Please head for the shore immediately and change the battery.
Let’s practise!
GREEN = Ready
RED = Charging
Charging the rechargeable battery
Now you can drive the boat
Installing the rechargeable battery
Fitting in the batteries
Using a screwdriver, remove the cover of the
battery compartment in the Carrera RC boat.
Connect the end of the cable from the
Carrera RC boat with the charged battery.
Put the battery in place.
Replace the compartment cover using
a screwdriver.
Press the release button, then take the
battery compartment out of the controller.
Take care when inserting the batteries that
the polarity is correct. Diff erent types of bat-
teries or new and used batteries are not to
be mixed. Push the battery compartment
back into the controller until it clicks into
place.
First connect the Carrera RC rechargeable
battery to the battery charger supplied. The
connection terminals between the battery
and the charger are designed to prevent
connection with the wrong polarity. Connect
the charger to a power source.
When the battery is properly connected and
charging normally, the red LED is constantly
lit. Once the battery is fully charged, the red
LED switches to green. The battery can now
be disconnected and installed in the Carrera
RC boat.
The boat is now ready for use.
After use, the battery must be allowed to cool
down for at least 20 minutes before it can be
fully recharged. Failure to observe this
pause may damage the battery.
On fi rst using it, the boat must be con-
nected with the controller.
A connection can only be made
when the boat is in contact with the
water.
To do this, you fi rst switch on the con-
troller, plug in the battery to the boat,
switch the boat on and then press the
small button located in the battery com-
partment until the LED lamp lights up
continuously.
Switch on the Carrera RC boat using
the ON/OFF switch.
Caution: this boat can reach speeds
up to 30 km/h.
When fi rst starting, be very careful
when operating the gas pedal. Practice
running slowly for at least two to three
full charges of the battery before you
start practising faster manoeuvres.
• Before launching from the bank, make sure the boat and the controller are con-
nected (see above)
• Avoid constant motor operation.
• When the boat battery is almost empty, the status LED next to the ON/OFF-
switch will start to fl ash regularly. Please head for the shore immediately and
change the battery.
• After use, remove or disconnect the battery.
• Never run more than 2 batteries down one after the other. After running down
two fully-charged batteries, a pause in running for at least 20 minutes is essen-
tial.
•
Always keep the Carrera RC battery stored outside the boat.
• After sailing it, clean the Carrera RC boat carefully
Always recharge the battery immediately after use to prevent its becoming deep
discharged. Recharge the battery occasionally (suggested every 2-3 months).
Failure to treat the battery as described above can lead to its becoming defective.
Rechargeable batteries are only to be charged by adults.
