The Riptide Ulterra trolling motor must be powered “on” manually. The remote
will not turn the motor on. The power button is located on the base of the
motor. Pressing the power button will turn on Riptide Ulterra. The red STATUS

on. 
POWER OFF
To power off Riptide Ulterra, press and hold the POWER button approximately
three seconds, until the green light turns off . Riptide Ulterra has an auto-
shut off as well. It will automatically power off after 1.5 hours of inactivity
in the stowed position.

The red STATUS light indicates:
Solid: Motor is stowed
Flashing: Motor is stowing/deploying
Off : Motor is deployed or off
SYSTEM READY LIGHT
The green SYSTEM READY light will remain lit while Riptide Ulterra is
operating.
If the green light does not remain illuminated after power up, this is an

WARNING:
When the motor is powered off while off the ramps, never turn the lower unit of the motor manually (by hand). This will aff ect the alignment of the motor and cause it to stow improperly.
