Safety Precautions

A very weak electrical signal is produced when using the reel. This may cause medical equipment such as hearing aids and pacemakers to malfunction, causing the user to have palpitations or become dizzy.
Immediately remove the power cable if you see moisture or water droplets on the inside of the display. If you continue to use the reel in such a situation it may malfunction, break the tip of the rod and cause injury.
Stop using the reel if you see a crack develop in the display or the case. If water penetrates into the case it can cause shorting to occur, which can damage the electronics and make it impossible to control the motor.
Stop using the reel IMMEDIATELY if a burning smell or smoke is emitted from the reel or the display, or if the reel becomes abnormally hot. If you continue to use the reel in this situation then the reel may catch fire.
Disconnect the power connector or the alligator clips from the battery immediately if the motor cannot be stopped.
Do NOT put your finger near the level winding position when fishing as it may get caught and cause injury. If your finger does become caught, turn off the power switch on the reel immediately and disassemble the reel.
Do NOT put your finger in between the handle and the body as it may get caught and cause injury.
Don’t get your finger caught!

Do NOT touch the rotating spool as this can cause injury.
Do NOT touch the rotating spool as this can cause injury.
If the surface of the coating on the reel comes off or if the surface of the material comes off due to a strong impact leaving a sharp edge, do NOT touch that area as it may cause injury.
Caution
Caution: Rotating Objects
Do NOT touch the line when it is being fed out or wound in as the line can cut or even cut off your finger.
Do not get your fingers caught!
CautionCaution
When using the reel, if the display goes off, do not wind the line in manually using the handle as this will mean there will be a difference between the actual line length and the counter. If you do wind the line in manually using the handle, after the display comes back on and you start winding the line in again using the motor the gunwale stop position will be incorrect, which can cause the rig to be wound in too much and even snap off the end of the rod. Therefore, it is important to investigate why the display has gone off and fix the problem and to only wind in the line after the display comes back on.
The display has
gone off.

Please store and use the reel out of the reach of children.
Caution
Do NOT wrap the cable around your body as depending on how the fish is pulled in it may cause you to be thrown into the sea.
Caution
The reel may malfunction if it is dropped and the display damaged due to the impact. Please take care to avoid any such impacts.
Caution
Please secure the reel securely to the rod. Do NOT use the reel if it is cross-threaded or not properly secured as it may come off during fishing and cause injury.

Handling Precautions
This reel can use 12V DC power supply with a nominal voltage of 12~14.8V (lithium-ion batteries, etc.). Do NOT use the reel with any kind of unspecified power supply (e.g. a vessel’s on-board power supply or a AC100 household power supply). NEVER use a battery charger.
•When using a vessel’s on-board power supply, always check that the voltage is
DC12V. (Only use a vessel’s battery if it is 12V or if you use a 24V to 12V DC-DC converter.) If the battery terminals are corroded, the voltage may not be stable, which can cause the reel to malfunction.
•Only use a fully charged battery.
•If a battery is used for a long period of time it loses charging capacity. If that
occurs get a new battery.
•NEVER use an AC power supply as it will destroy the reel’s electronics.
•It may not be possible to properly attach the alligator clips to the terminals of
other batteries from other manufacturers and in some cases using batteries from other manufacturers may cause damage to such batteries.
Always use a genuine Shimano power cord to connect your reel to the power supply.
The power cord is a consumable. Depending on frequency of use, it may need to be changed every 2~3 years.
Caution
Using a power cord other than a genuine Shimano item may cause the reel to malfunction. Please do not treat the power cord in a rough manner, stand on it or fold or bend it as this can cause it to break.

Drop Your Rig Quickly
This is an especially effective technique when fishing for squid.
Technique
Normally, the mechanical brake knob is tightened to slightly brake
the free rotation of the spool to prevent backlash due to the up/down movement of the vessel.
To drop your rig faster, use your finger rather than tightening the
mechanical brake knob.
You can also use the techniques shown below.
This reel has an Auto Casting Function. The motor automatically starts
when the rig is 5m or more past the gunwale stop position and spool resistance is minimized. The motor automatically stops when the clutch is returned.
* As the motor is in operation during Auto Casting, engaging the clutch will cause
the line to be slightly wound in but this is not abnormal.
Point the tip of the rod downward to reduce guide resistance as shown
in the diagram on the right.
(You will want to learn these techniques to improve your catch.)

The counter can be reset to 0m when the rig is on the surface.
If you want to improve your catch you must be able to position your rig accurately at the target depth. Zero setting resets the counter to zero when the rig is on the surface. Zero setting enables you to know the depth of the rig and to accurately position it at the target depth.

A corrosion-resistant metal is densely packed onto the surface of both ends of the spool using surface reforming technique. This creates a stable immoveable layer that ensures constant protection.
Due to highly rust-resistant bearings (A-RB) inside the unit, lowering the hook has become even easier.
That’s why even simple float fishing, said to be troublesome with an electronic reel, can be conquered.
We have also achieved the ideal balance between the safety bar and the level wind, to completely avoid notorious and unwanted line tangles at this crucial point.

Helpful Advice
When fishing with a short rod from the bow of a boat, if zero setting is carried out in the normal way, then the Gunwale Stop Position will be outside of the normal 1~6m range.
In such cases, wind the rig up to the end of the rod and reset zero at that point to ensure that when the motor stops the rig will come to your hand when you raise the rod vertical.
In this particular situation, as zero setting is not carried out on the surface of the water, the actual distance from the end of the rod to the surface of the water will be different.
You can set the reel so that when the motor stops retrieving the line you just need to raise your rod vertical to have the rig come straight to your hand.
* When connecting to a power source for the first time the
Gunwale Stop is set at 6m. From the second time onwards, the position at which the reel is stopped for more than 5 seconds will automatically be remembered by the computer as the Gunwale Stop position. (This feature works within the 1m~6m range. When the depth displayed is less than 1m, in the interests of safety it is set at 1m.)
When the motor stops, just raise your rod vertical and the rig will come straight to your hand.

The Auto Depth Alert can be programmed automatically or manually.
Any depth past 6.1m where the rig stops for more than 6 seconds is automatically saved as the target depth and is shown in the bottom right hand corner of the display when the rig is stopped at the Gunwale Stop Position (the figure shown above inside the square).
If the rig stops for more than 6 seconds more than once, the last depth is saved as the target depth. If the rig stops for less than 6 seconds then the maximum depth will be reached and saved in the memory.
The example shown in the diagram above is for Top­Down Mode. The figures shown on the display are for illustration purposes only.

What is Rakuraku Mode?
Rakuraku Mode maintains line tension at the level you set. In other words, the reel senses the tension (load) on the line and automatically adjusts motor rotation speed to maintain a constant tension.
In other words…
It adjusts motor speed to
compensate for sudden changes in tension caused by the movement of the fish and the vessel.
The motor takes up any
sudden slack in the line when tension decreases due to factors such as when the rod is lowered during pumping.
It avoids the tug of war that
occurs between the motor and the fish.
This is particularly useful when
fishing in rough water where it is impossible to maintain a constant tension on the line manually by using the rod.
It makes reeling your fish in so easy that
you just need to enjoy your fishing.
It also has the following advantages…
It can handle any kind of fishing other than live bait fishing.
Rigs with only a light load can be recovered at maximum speed without having to worry about adjusting motor speed, which makes life easy and means that you can concentrate on fishing.
Adjust tension can quickly and easily using the Technical Lever.
Maximize rig strength by eliminating the tug of war that
occurs between the motor and the fish.
Settings are adjusted using the Technical Lever (see the
previous page for details).
There are

tension settings that can be selected using the Technical Lever. These are displayed as shown in the diagram.

This reel consists of precision electrical components. Please read and follow the instructions below. Proper maintenance after every fishing trip is recommended to ensure that you will be able to enjoy using the reel for many years to come.
Cleaning Your Reel
(When you notice a deterioration in spool rotation.)
If the spool is not rotating as smoothly as usual even after normal
maintenance then this may indicate that there is a build-up of salt in the bearing near the handle.
* Remove the power cord.
Carefully immerse the reel

in freshwater up to spool as shown in the diagram. Do NOT immerse the whole reel. Rotate the spool to dissolve the salt and regain performance.
Immerse up to this point.
way as if the bearings were rusty. It is almost impossible to remove dried salt from inside the bearings and even though Anti-Rust Bearings are used there is no alternative other than to completely replace the bearings. Please bear this in mind when using your reel. We strongly recommend that you have maintenance carried out on a regular basis.
* Please detach the power cord from the reel when in storage.
Remove the reel from the water and hold it up with the connector

If that does not improve the situation, please contact your nearest sales office to have the reel overhauled.
Caring for Your Reel
* Remove the power cord and
make sure that the reel has completely cooled down before you start any maintenance.
Tighten the drag.

place.
* Wash or lightly brush the alligator clips using freshwater to get rid of
any impurities from seawater.
* Salt Build-Up in the Bearings
While Anti-Rust Bearings are especially resistant to salt water, they are not, however, designed to prevent salt water from penetrating inside the bearings. If basic maintenance is neglected, seawater may remain inside the bearings and when it dries it may cause the bearings to run roughly or seize. Although in such a case the bearings will not rust, the reel will run roughly and noisily in the same
Handing Instructions

Precautions
One of the characteristics of powered reels is that even though the
motor is ON, sometimes line will not get wound in if a fish is hooked because the drag is slipping. This is similar to an automobile going along with the handbrake on. If this goes on for a long time, then the oil in the drag will be burn off and eventually the drag will burn out. Take care not to allow this to happen as it could destroy the entire reel.
When the line is caught, do NOT exert excessive force on the rod or
reel. Instead, please cut the line after taking care to minimize the amount of line left in the fishing ground.
Please take care when handling the reel. Never throw it in your bag or
allow it to bang against other items during transportation.
NEVER drop or hit the reel. Treat it carefully.
Take care not to hit the back of the reel or bend the power cord when
putting the reel into a rod stand. Take special care not to trap the power cord between the reel and the gunwale.
Some types of polarizing sunglasses make it difficult to properly view
the display.
After winding in a heavy load, take care when dropping the rig and
winding it in the next time as the rig may get tangled with the tip of the rod.
If the resin footing of the reel is secured to a metal reel mount,
this may damage the resin and can ultimately damage the whole reel. Please make sure the resin protector is properly in place when attaching the reel to a metal mount.
Maintaining Your Reel
Regular Maintenance - Please contact your nearest service center.
The condition of the reel is greatly influenced by not only frequency
of use, but also the environment in which it is used, how it is used and the target species. If any abnormality is detected, please contact your nearest service center through the nearest retailer immediately. A regular professional maintenance check once every six months is highly recommended.
Always remove the power cord from the reel before storing it.
Place the protective cap on connectors when the reel is not in use.
NEVER try to disassemble the reel as this can damage internal
electrical components such as the motor and circuit breaker and may cause the reel to malfunction.
NEVER oil the drag mechanism as this may decrease performance.
Leaving the reel in high temperature, high humidity conditions for a
long period of time may cause deformation or weakness. Always store in a cool, dry place after carrying out regular maintenance.
NEVER immerse the entire reel in water,
especially the display. (Although the display is shower proof it is best to avoid immersing it in order to prevent any trouble.

This happens when the unit is left somewhere at high temperature, such as in a car boot. It will return to normal when the temperature goes down.
Check to see if the (+) and (--) of the power cord are connected properly to the battery. Check to see if the battery has sufficient charge. Check the surface of the alligator clips for foreign objects.
When the LCD display is left in extreme cold (below -15°C), the display will not work for a while even though the power is turned on. Wait until the circuit board inside the unit warms up. When fishing in extremely cold conditions, it is recommended that the reel be kept in the cabin or under cover until it is needed.

Depending on the type of line, sometimes the line gets stretched, which can cause discrepancies on the display.
This is probably due to winding tension or stretched line. Carry out 0 set. Gunwale set is only possible between 1~6m. Settings between 0~1m are rounded up to 1m for safety reasons.
Check if the battery has enough charge. When the battery does not have enough charge, the motor may work at low speed but not at high speed. Charge the battery and test the reel. If that does not improve the situation, you may need a new battery. The motor may not work when the temperature of the reel is below 0°C. When fishing in extremely cold conditions, keep the reel in the cabin or leave it ON until it is needed. Furthermore, the motor does not start when the display shows less than 1m for safety reasons.

Situation What to do Reference
P.14
Make sure all the screws on the power cord connector are at the connector. If the boat’s power supply terminal or the reel’s power cord connector is rusty, the current will not flow properly. Remove any rust and try again. Battery charge should also be checked.
A condenser is installed under the display unit to protect the reel from fluctuating current. The condenser may vibrate and make some noise when the reel is used with an unstable power supply. However, this will not affect reel function so it is OK to keep on using it.
There is a strange sound in the reel even when not winding.
The motor stops while winding.
In order to enjoy fishing, please turn the power on and check the performance of the reel before you go. (The motor does not come on unless the line is fed more than 1.1m.)
If above checks still do not improve the situation, please contact the retailer you purchased the reel from and explain the problem in detail.

INSTRUCTION MANUAL
Please include your telephone number when you send us an inquiry by mail. It is easier to explain some reel mechanisms on the phone rather than in writing.
When the reel needs repairing, please take it to the retailer you purchased
it from together with the guarantee and the power cord. We need to know detail regarding the problem. (E.g. The stopper does not work.)
A charge will be made for the necessary replacement parts and labor. We
cannot compensate for damaged or lost tackle arising from a damaged Shimano product and/or fishing trip expenses.
If you wish to order a part or replacement spool, please order from the place
of purchase or your nearest retailer, specifying product name, merchandise code/product code, part name/number as shown in the component diagram. (We recommend sending in the whole reel for the repair.)
