WARNINGS
Warning: Never drive through sea grass, mud or silt. This can
block the propeller. If something gets into the propeller, remove
the fin from the water, dry it completely and then remove the
foreign object with a tool. Never put your fingers into the pro-
peller.
Warning: Always make sure there is enough draft (> 0.5 m)
before you lower the board with the E-Fin into the water. In the
water, you should always keep an eye on shallows and keep the
minimum distance between the E-Fin and the bottom.
Warning: Do not open or tamper with the electronics housing.
You could get an electric shock. In addition, the warranty would
no longer be valid.
Warning: Always make sure that the screws of the adapter are
tight. Also make sure that the fin is properly stowed in the box
and that the box fixes the fin.
Warning: Be careful not to get your fingers, hair or clothing into
the propeller or other moving parts.
Warning: Always keep the E-Fin out of reach of infants and
small children.
Drive responsibly and respect those around you. How you drive
affects how this new mode of transport is seen by others.
SAFETY INFORMATION

To use it safely, you have to read all warnings and instructions in this
manual.
The E-Fin may lose drive at any time.
This can be caused by radio interference, an empty remote control
battery, accidental adjustment of the power regulator or other
factors. Use the power of the E-Fin on your SUP or kayak only as you
would trust yourself to do without a drive.
Take care of your environment.
Avoid driving near breeding birds, seal banks or similar
animal-inhabited areas.
Riding on water recklessly can lead to death.
Always be careful when you are out on the water. Always drive
defensively and assume that others don‘t see you. Don‘t ride in strong
waves (waves > 0.5 m) or storms. Do not drive in shipping lanes or
cross the course of larger ships. lf possible, avoid paddling through
fog at night or when visibility is poor.
Comply with the local laws.

with the local laws, pay attention to bathing areas and other areas
that are closed to water sports.
