Boating Tips

This boat is intended for use in pools or small ponds
but can be used in any body of water.
• Follow Self-Righting instructions if your boat flips.
• Apply a small burst of throttle if your boat has air in
the jet pump. The boat will start moving under its own
power once the pump is full of water.
• Do not run your boat in water full of people.
WARNING: The boat can cause bodily harm if it
comes in contact with a person's body or hair.
• Do not run your boat directly in to the side of a tile-
lined pool.
• Do not run your boat in a pond with floating debris or
tall grass.
Unlike ruddered steerable boats, jet boats must have
power applied to the motors in order for the boat to turn.
When making turns, decrease the throttle to reduce the
probability of flipping the boat over. The boat will not

Self-Righting

The Jet Jam V2 features an auto self-righting feature.
This feature is most effective at or above half power.
To engage the self-righting feature:
Press and hold the CH3 button on your transmitter, and
the boat will self-right.
Once the boat has flipped upright, release the CH3
button to resume normal operation.
If you are below half power, use the throttle and
brake normally to self-right the boat. Pulse the throttle
and brake alternatively, and the boat will self-right.

When You Are Finished

1. Power off the receiver/ESC.
2. Power off the transmitter.
3. Disconnect and remove the battery
from the boat.
Tip: Always remove the hatches before
storage or moisture may allow mold and
mildew to grow in the boat. If you wish
to display your boat, you can reinstall the
hatches once it is dry.

Never operate your boat in less than 3 inches (7.6 cm)
of water.
CAUTION: Running your boat in shallow water
increases the chance of debris entering the jet
pump. Verify that the jet pumps are free of debris, as
operating the boat with a blocked jet drive for a prolonged
period will damage the motor and ESC.
CAUTION: Never operate your boat in extreme
temperatures or turbulent water.
WARNING: Never attempt to retrieve a downed
boat by swimming unless you are sufficiently
trained and/or there is another person available to
respond in the case of an emergency.
