Please thoroughly read the user manual. Follow all instructions and heed all safety and cautionary notices. Use of this product is only
permitted for persons that have read and understood these user instructions. Minors may use this product only under adult supervision.
You are responsible for the safe and prudent operation of your vessel. We have designed your Minn Kota product to be an accurate
and reliable tool that will enhance boat operation and improve your ability to catch fish. This product does not relieve you from the
responsibility for safe operation of your boat. You must avoid hazards to navigation and always maintain a permanent watch so you can
respond to situations as they develop. You must always be prepared to regain manual control of your boat. Learn to operate your Minn
Kota product in an area free from hazards and obstacles.
This unit uses a magnetic compass to detect direction of travel. The compass can be adversely affected by magnets or large, ferrous
metal objects near (within 24" of) the trolling motor control head.
Obstructions on the propeller may cause excessive vibration of the motor head. This vibration can cause the compass to wander and
erratic steering to occur. Clear the obstruction to return the motor and i-Pilot Link system to normal operation.
It is recommended to only use Johnson Outdoors approved accessories with your Minn Kota motor, such as this i-Pilot Link system.
Using non-approved accessories including to mount or control your motor may cause damage, unexpected motor operation and injury.
Be sure to use the product and approved accessories, including remotes, safely and in the manner directed to avoid accidental or
unexpected motor operation. Keep all factory installed parts in place including motor and accessory covers, enclosures and guards.
When the motor is being controlled by the i-Pilot Link system, the Control Head will continue to perform the last task it was assigned,
even when the remote is not powered "on". Be sure to know how to power the motor "on" and "off", and always be alert for unexpected
motor movement, such as a turning propeller, even when the remote is powered "off". Refer to the Owner's Manual for how to control
the motor without the i-Pilot Link remote and become familiar with it's features including how to turn it "on" and "off".
