1. Carefully open the hatch on the boat to access the battery compartment.
2. Gently plug the battery into the battery connector located on the bottom of the boat. Ensure correct polarity.
3. Place the battery onto the battery tray, ensuring it is securely attached, typically with Velcro.
4. After installation, the ship's indicator light will flash, confirming power.

4.2. Transmitter Linking

1. With the boat's battery connected and indicator light flashing, press and hold any trim button on the controller.
2. While holding the trim button, turn "ON" the controller.
3. Arm the motor by moving the left stick from low to high and then back to low.
4. If the green LED on the controller remains on, it indicates successful linking. If not, return to step 1 and repeat the process.

4.3. Sail Rope Restoration

If the rope on the sailboat falls off, please restore it as follows:

1. Locate the loose end of the sail rope.
2. Thread the rope through the designated eyelets and guides on the sail and mast, following the original path.
3. Secure the rope firmly to its attachment point, ensuring it is taut but not overly tight to allow for proper sail movement.

5. Mode d'emploi

5.1. Motor-Powered Operation

For calm days or when precise maneuvering is required, the catamaran can be operated using its motor. Use the remote control's throttle stick to control forward and reverse movement, and the steering stick for rudder control. Ensure the keel adaptor is removed if using the motor.

5.2. Wind-Powered Operation

For an authentic sailing experience, the catamaran can be operated using wind power. Ensure the small keel adaptor is installed if you do not wish to use the motor. The Smart Sail Technology will assist in maintaining stability.

5.3. Smart Sail Control

The Smart Sail Control system is designed to minimize capsizing. When the boat reaches a dangerous angle of inclination in gusty winds, the built-in intelligent angle sensing system automatically releases the sails, allowing the boat to return to the correct position. This feature significantly enhances stability and ease of use.

6. Entretien

6.1. Post-Sailing Inspection

After each sailing session, carefully examine all parts of the catamaran for any signs of damage. This includes checking the hull, sails, rigging, rudder, and propeller. If any damage is found, do not operate the boat until the damage has been properly repaired.

6.2. Cleaning the Propeller

Regularly inspect the propeller for any debris such as weeds, fishing lines, or other foreign objects that may have become entangled. Use tweezers or a small tool to carefully remove any obstructions. A clean propeller ensures efficient motor operation and prevents damage.
