5.6 Operation on the water surface
Both before and during operation, observe
the safety information given in Chapter 1 as
well as those listed below:
• The water must be at least 1 m deep. Operating the
craft in water that is less than 1 m deep may cause
injury to you or damage to the SEABOB as a result
of hitting underwater objects (particularly if there are
rocky bottoms, reefs and stones).
• Make sure that there are no aquatic plants or floating
objects in the water that could get into the jet chan-
nel and damage or jam the motor or impeller.
• Maintain a safe distance (minimum 5 m) to other per-
sons, watercrafts and obstacles. Danger of collision
and injury!
• Do not operate the SEABOB in strong currents, a
heavy swell, strong wind or impaired visibility.
• Only operate the craft when it is light out and the
weather is good. Always check the weather forecast
before you set out, and pay close attention to local
weather conditions.
5.6.1 How to navigate your SEABOB
1. Lie down on the SEABOB facing forward. Stretch your
arms out completely, and grab on to the Controlgrips
firmly.
2. Use the green and red buttons to select the desired
power in %. To increase the power, tap the green but-
ton (repeatedly). To decrease the power, tap the red
button (repeatedly). The power display increases or
decreases in increments of 10 % (10 power levels).
3. Pull the Powergrip against the Controlgrip, and hold it
there. The motor starts, and the SEABOB begins mov-
ing.
4. If you want to go faster, use your right thumb to tap
the green button on the right Controlgrip. You can
also perform this operation while the craft is mov-
ing. The power increases in increments of 10 % with
every tap of the button (10 power levels) until the
maximum power of 100 % is reached.
