Setup, Compatibility & Care

To set up your alarm, unscrew the back battery compartment and insert the N-type or LR1 batteries as indicated by the polarity markings. Once powered, use the side-mounted toggle switch to turn the unit on. Use the dedicated buttons to cycle through your volume, tone, and sensitivity presets until you reach your desired configuration.

For compatibility, the alarm fits standard banksticks and rod pod attachments via its threaded base. To ensure longevity, always wipe the unit down with a dry or slightly damp cloth after fishing, especially if exposed to rain or muddy conditions. Avoid submerging the alarm in water. When storing for extended periods, remove the batteries to prevent leakage.
