Important safety notes and operating information relating to the RC system
Always switch the transmitter on first, and only then the receiver (model)!
•
Always switch the receiver off first, and only then the transmitter!
•
Protect all electronic devices from dust, dirt, damp, vibration and foreign bodies. Never subject them to
•
excessive heat or cold.
Avoid shock and pressure loads on the equipment. Check all units constantly for damage to cases and
•
leads.
Always disconnect plugs and sockets by grasping the insulators; never pull on the wires.
•
Avoid reversed polarity and short-circuits of all kinds. Avoid excessive voltage in the power supply
•
system, as the units are not protected against such errors.
Use only components specified and approved by GRAUPNER.
•
If you wish to use an electronic speed controller, be sure to use one of the types recommended by
•
GRAUPNER: see the recommendations and installation notes at the end of these instructions.
For the transmitter and receiver power supply GRAUPNER recommends the use of dry cells only. We
•
do not advise rechargeable batteries for this purpose; their use is at the modeller's discretion.
Never use batteries consisting of cells varying in condition (i.e. full cells in combination with flat cells),
•
and varying in type or make.
If you use dry cells as the power supply, note that you must never attempt to recharge them. Do not
•
recharge any batteries unless they are specifically described as being 'rechargeable'.
Check that the dry batteries are in an adequate state of charge before operating the boat, and ensure
•
that the range of the radio control system is sufficient. If you are not sure of the state of charge of the
cells, it is always safer to replace the transmitter and receiver batteries.
The transmitter aerial must be securely fitted and extended to its full length.
•
Do not deploy the receiver aerial in the model in any arrangement other than as originally supplied. The
•
aerial should always be located as far away as possible from high-current cables.
If water gets inside any of the RC components, dry them out thoroughly and send them to your nearest
•
GRAUPNER Service Centre for checking (see list of approved Service Centres at the end of these
instructions).
Notes on the RC system
Transmitter power supply
We recommend AA-size alkaline dry cells for the transmitter. We do not recommend the use of rechargeable
cells for this purpose. Take care to maintain correct polarity when fitting the dry cells; the proper arrangement
is engraved in the bottom of the battery compartment. Fitting the cells the wrong way round may ruin the
transmitter. Suitable battery types are listed at the end of these instructions. NOTE: the transmitter features
an integral charge socket, but this must not be used if dry cells are fitted.
Receiver power supply
We recommend AA-size alkaline dry cells for the receiver. We do not recommend the use of rechargeable
cells for this purpose. Take care to maintain correct polarity when fitting the dry cells; the proper arrangement
is engraved in the battery holder. Fitting the cells the wrong way round may ruin the receiver. Suitable
battery types are listed at the end of these instructions.
Receiver aerial
Never shorten the overall length of the wire aerial attached to the receiver, as it is accurately tuned to the
transmitter. Install the aerial as described in the following assembly instructions for the model. If you use a
steel whip aerial, the wire aerial must be shortened by the length of the whip so that the overall length
remains unchanged.
