SYNCING THE REMOTE CONTROL AND SPEEDBOAT
To properly sync the remote control and speedboat, place the speedboat on the surface of the
water. The speedboat will draw in water through its intakes and its motor will engage. Next, turn
on the remote control. This will light the red light and cause the green light to flash. When the
green light stops flashing, the remote control and the speedboat are synced. The speedboat is
now ready for use.
