Battery Characteristics and Recharging Tips
Power switch
When playing for the first time after purchase, or after
a long interval, the battery power may be weak. Even after recharging, the running
time can be relatively short. The battery will gradually regain power after 2 or 3 repetitions of usage and recharging. Also, if you keep the iBoat power switch turned ON for
a long time, the battery power will be discharged. Make sure to turn OFF the power
switch immediately after use.

Rudder
If the product is used in low temperatures, the battery duration can be shorter than
normal. This is a characteristic feature of the battery and is not a defect. The situation
can be improved by recharging the battery immediately before playing. The battery
power tends to be weakened as time elapses.

How to Install the Controller Batteries
Use a ballpoint pen to open

Install 2 alkaline
batteries
Wing (charger cover) is opened receiver antenna
Before attaching the boat to the controller, bend the antenna toward you
to keep it from getting in the way

close the lid.
To remove the
bottom battery
more easily, press
the minus (-) end
with your finger
and pull out the
plus (+) end.
Battery installation:
*Install the batteries in the controller.
(This product operates only with size "AA" "UM3" "R6"alalkaline batteries. If you use
manganese or other types of batteries, the nickel metal hydride battery built into the boat
may not be recharged fully. Be sure to use ONLY alkaline dry cell batteries.)
Make sure that the power switch of the controller is turned OFF.
Use a ballpoint pen, pencil or sharp tools to push the release button of the battery lid.
While pressing the button, slide the lid a little bit as shown in the diagram.
*Slide out the lid with your hand and detach.
*Be careful so that the pencil lead will not be broken.
Install 2 size "AA" "UM3" "R6"alkaline batteries, making sure that the (+) and (-) ends
are positioned properly.
Attach the battery lid again. Slide the lid back into position until the release button
clicks. (Lift up the rear end of the battery lid slightly to fit the lid into the groove as
shown in the diagram. Then, keep the lid flat and slide into the groove.)
When recharging, make sure that iBoat on the under side of the controller. If iBoat is on
top of the controller, there is the danger that water might seep into the controller terminal
and cause short circuits.
Fit the claw of the controller into
the hollow pit in the body of iBoat.
Important Point
Make sure that the center marker at the head of
the boat is fitted into the
center marker holder of
the controller as shown
in the diagram.
Follow the correct procedures when recharging.
When the battery starts to run out of power, the LED lamp will grow dim.

The set-up is completed!
Check to see that iBoat does
not fall off.
The green LED lamp lights up.
The ordinary recharging
time is about 2 minutes.
(The LED lamp will go out
when recharging is completed.)
When you have finished recharging, detach iBoat from
the controller and replace the recharger cover and wing.
removal
button
There is a safety hook on the controller to prevent iBoat
from falling off while recharging. When iBoat is fully
recharged, the green LED lamp will turn off. When
this has been confirmed, keep pressing the recharging release button on the side of the controller, and
pull iBoat toward you to detach it from the controller.
CAUTION: Be sure to return the wing (charger cover) to its original
position before starting to operate iBoat.
If the wing is not fully returned to its proper position, water can
seep into the hull or recharging terminal and cause short circuits.
Improper replacement of the wing may damage the stopper clasp
as well.
1.Lift the wing
up so that it
comes directly
over the recharging terminal.
2.Make sure that the drain
hole cap fits into the water
drain hole and push
straight down until the
clasp clicks and fits into position.
Steering Alignment
Rudder If iBoat does not move straight forward or straight
backward, try adjusting the rudder on the botL
tom side of iBoat. If the boat tends to go to the
right, move the rudder toward L. If the boat tends
to go to the left, move the rudder toward R.
* Operation Techniques *
For smooth cornering, move the stick slightly forward or
reverse and then slide it to the left or right. This will
enable smooth left/right turns. If you master this basic
technique, you will be able to make a letter “8”, slalom,
etc. This cornering technique will enable the
user to operate in small pools, etc.
Features of the controller
Single-stick controller enables single-hand
operation for all movements.
Operation mechanism
iBoat is propelled by a 2-motor 2-screw system. When both screws turn at the same
speed, iBoat moves straight forward. When you operate the controller to move to the left/right, the motor on
the side you wish to advance stops to change the direction of the boat. If you want to turn right, the right screw
stops. If you want to turn left, the left screw stops.
Position of the stick
and the direction of
the boat.
*Be careful of the screws!
How to Operate
The screws are very dangerous when spinning.
CAUTION: Before starting to play, make sure
that the antenna is standing vertically upright. If
the antenna is bent to the left or right, it will affect
the balance.
Don’t bring your fingers near the screws!
Extended Operating Time (follow-up recharging)
Recharge the battery once. Without using the
battery, recharge a second time. This ”follow-up
recharging” will lengthen the playing time.
Moreover, if you recharge the battery 3 times in a
row before use, the playing time will be extended
even more.
However, be careful NOT to recharge the battery
more than 3 times in a row.
Also, note that the battery duration differs depending on how you play.
Power switch
* First, turn ON the controller power switch, and then turn ON the iBoat power switch.
* Tilt the controller stick in the direction you wish to move iBoat, and it will start moving.
* If either the antenna on iBoat or the controller is bent, the radio waves will not reach a
long distance. Straighten them before playing.
* When you finish playing, turn OFF the power switch of iBoat and the controller, and be
sure to remove the batteries from the controller.

in the wrong direction.
2 Shorten the distance between the
controller and iBoat.
4 The metal tab touching the controller battery is rusted.
4 Use sandpaper to remove the rust.
iBoat is operated by use of radio waves. If you operate iBoat where it can be affected by
other radio waves, the boat may not respond correctly to your operations, or start to
move even though you are not operating it. In such cases, the boat is not broken.
Operate your boat in a different place or at a different time.
To play safely, observe the following:
*DO NOT operate iBoat where there are water plants, garbage, filth, or other obstacles.
Such obstacles may damage the screws.
*DO NOT play where the water current is strong or when the wind is blowing strongly.
*DO NOT play in ocean water, because salt water can cause rusting.
*DO NOT play in thunderstorms.
*NEVER touch the screws when they are spinning!
*Take iBoat out of the water before the battery power runs out.
*Bring the wing (charger cover) back to its normal position before operating iBoat. If you
operate iBoat with the wing in the recharging position, the recharging terminal can get
wet. This is very dangerous!
*The manufacturer prohibits the user to alter the specifications or to remodel the product
in any way. Those who violate this rule will be prohibited from operating iBoat.
5 The metal recharging terminals of
the controller or boat may be
rusted.
5 Use sandpaper to remove the rust.

8 The antenna of the controller or
iBoat is bent.
8 Straighten the antenna.
Maintenance and Care
If the boat becomes dirty, use a slightly dampened cloth to wipe off the dirt and filth. Then
use a dry cloth to wipe of the moisture. You can also use a small brush to remove filth from
intricate parts.
To remove dust particles, tie a small bit of cloth to the tip of a toothpick, tweezers, etc. and
wipe off.
CAUTION! : BE SURE TO READ THE FOLLOWING PRECAUTIONS:
*DO NOT use chemicals. The body of the boat can melt and cause machine troubles.
*If you keep the boat in a place where the temperature is extremely hot or cold, or
where it is extremely humid (such as in a car or under direct sunlight), the boat can be
damaged and lead to machine troubles.
*Be sure to remove the batteries from the controller when storing the product away.
Keep this Manual of Instructions carefully for future use.
