Setup, Compatibility & Care
To set up your NGT VX2, simply screw the alarm onto your bankstick or rod pod using the standard thread. Insert the required LRV08 battery into the compartment, ensuring the correct polarity. If using illuminated bobbins, connect the plug into the jack socket located on the bottom of the unit. For care, keep the unit in its protective case when not in use. After fishing in heavy rain, wipe the alarm down with a clean, dry cloth to prevent moisture build-up around the rubber seals. Never submerge the unit fully in water.
