C) Before Operation; D) During Use - Reely Mini-Wavebreaker Operating Instructions Manual

c) Before operation

• Ensure that there are no other models operating at the same frequency (2.4 GHz) within range of the
remote control. Always check whether there are any other 2.4 GHz remote controls that may interfere
with the model.
• Conduct regular checks to verify that the model and remote control are safe to use. Inspect the parts
for any signs of damage, such as broken connectors or damaged cables. All moving parts on the model
should move freely, but there must not be any slackness in the bearing.
• The drive battery that is required for operation must be charged before use.
• Make sure that the 9 V block battery in the transmitter has sufficient residual capacity (use a battery
tester).
• When switching on the remote control and the model boat, always follow the procedure described below
in a separate section. This ensures that the transmitter and receiver are connected properly and that
your model responds reliably to remote control commands from your transmitter. Otherwise, the receiver
may react unpredictably and the propellers may accidentally start up. There is a risk of accident and
injuries!
• Check that the propellers are intact and in the correct position before each use.
• Keep objects and body parts away from the propellers when they are moving.

d) During use

• Do not take any risks when using the product! Always use the model responsibly, otherwise you may
endanger yourself and your surroundings.
• Improper use can cause serious injury and damage to property! Always ensure that the model boat is
kept away from people, animals and objects during use.
• Select a suitable body of water to use your model. Make sure you ask the person or organisation respon-
sible for the body of water whether you are permitted to use your model there.
• Ensure that there are no climbing plants (such as seaweed) in the water. In addition, check that there are
no objects (e.g. branches) floating in the water.
• When afloat, pay attention to currents and other adverse conditions that make it difficult or even impos-
sible to operate the model. The model can even be destroyed!
• Only use the model when you are fully alert and able to respond. Fatigue, alcohol and medication can
affect your ability to respond.
• Never drive the model boat directly at people or animals that are swimming in the water.
• The motors, speed controller and drive battery may heat up during operation of the model. For this
reason, wait 5 to 10 minutes before recharging the drive battery or restarting the model with a spare
rechargeable battery. The motors must be left to cool down to the ambient temperature.
• The remote control (transmitter) should always remain switched on as long as the model is in operation.
Always disconnect the drive battery first after use. Only then may the transmitter be switched off.
• In the event of a defect or malfunction, be sure to eliminate the cause of the fault before resuming opera-
tion of the model.
• Do not expose the model or the remote control to direct sunlight or excessive heat for prolonged periods.
• If the running performance decreases, head for the bank immediately. Otherwise there is a risk that the
boat with an empty drive battery will drift uncontrollably on the water and get lost.
