Turn on Aqua-Vu's invisible infrared camera lights to enhance the viewing of bottom and fish in low-light conditions. However you employ your Aqua-Vu Z unit - for pure fun as a discovery tool, for learning while fishing and observing nature, for watching small children or pets, or for security purposes - you will experience a fascinating new "view."...
Connect the black wire clip to the black terminal on the battery (black to black). You may also power the Aqua-Vu Z via an Auxiliary Power Cord accessory that plugs into a cigarette lighter in vehicle or boat. The unit can operate off any 12-volt power source.

Lower your bait or lure to about 6 inches above bottom. Turn on the Aqua-Vu Z unit and lower the camera through the camera hole. Raise it slightly off bottom so you have a view of the bottom and the water above it.
THE BATTERY AND CHARGER The Aqua-Vu Z model includes a 12-volt, 7-amp sealed and spillproof lead acid battery designed to fit securely in the carrying shuttle. The battery has a one-way relief valve to release excessive gas pressure in case of improper charging.
