Activating the Wireless Foot Pedal

Each wireless foot pedal and wireless handheld remote has a unique serial number, and each wireless controller must be
synced individually to the trolling motor receiver. The trolling motor receiver can sync up to 40 wireless controllers. This ensures
that the trolling motor will respond to commands only from designated controllers. Follow the instructions below to activate a
wireless controller with your trolling motor. For erasing and reprogramming information, refer to Section 6—Erasing the
Receiver's Memory and Section 6—Reprogramming the Wireless Foot Pedal or Remote.
IMPORTANT: To activate multiple foot pedals or remotes, the motor must be unplugged from the power source and then
plugged back into the power source between activating each control device.

the battery cables to their terminals, press and hold the propeller and anchor buttons on the wireless foot pedal
simultaneously.
