TRIM/STOW RESET PROCEDURE
In the unlikely event Riptide Ulterra will not trim or stow, the following procedure will reset the motor and restore functionality. If Riptide
Ulterra does not reset, repeat the procedure. If the second attempt fails, please contact your local authorized service center or call
Minn Kota service at (800) 227-6433.
TRIM/STOW RESET PROCEDURE
a. Locate the Indicator Panel at the base of
the Mount.
b. Press and hold the Power Button located on the
Indicator Panel to turn the motor off. Make sure
that the motor is off by checking that the green
LED light next to the System Ready Indicator
is off.
c. Press the Power Button until the green LED
illuminates and the motor is turned on.
d. Wait 3 seconds.
e. Press the Power Button 3 times consecutively within
a 2 second period.
f. The red and green LEDs will flash continuously and
the Riptide Ulterra will go through the following
automated sequence:
• The motor will position itself into the
proper orientation.
• The motor will automatically trim up to the Mount
and then trim down approximately 6 inches.
• The flashing red LED next to the System Ready
Indicator will turn off, and the flashing green
LED next to the Status Indicator will become
solid green.
NOTICE: If the Lower Unit of the motor is trimmed within
6 inches of the Mount and the boat Hull is obstructing the
motor’s turning radius, manually turn the Control Head of
the motor so that the Lower Unit is perpendicular to the
Motor Ramps prior to beginning this procedure.
