Note. 

After a few days you may find that the Air Swimmer may lose some of its buoyancy, 

therefore you will need to top up the balloon on a regular basis. After several top ups the 

helium inside the balloon may become mixed with air and need to be emptied fully and 

then refilled.

Warning:

 Do not inhale helium. Use only in a well ventilated area. Never use in closed spaces. 

Helium reduces and can eliminate oxygen available for breathing. Inhaling helium can result in 

serious personal injury or death.

Warning: 

DO NOT OVER INFLATE THE BALLOON. 

Only inflate with helium. Do not use other type of gas. 

Do not use any other inflations device such as a foot pump.

Inserting the batteries

Please ensure that batteries are installed by 

an adult.

Pod Track

The pod track (12) requires 1 x AAA battery (14).

1. Unscrew the battery cover using a cross 

  head screwdriver.

2. Insert the battery according to polarity

  shown. Screw the battery cover back

  into place.

Assembling your Air Swimmer

After filling the Air Swimmer balloon, you are ready for assembly. It is recommended two 

people carry out this assembly. 

To empty your Air Swimmer, insert a narrow drinking straw (maximum 6mm / 0.24 ins) into the 

valve by at least 7 inches. Inserting a thicker diameter straw may damage the one way valve.

Controller colour may vary

You can 

store your 

Air Swimmer 

by attaching 

the ribbon to 

the box or 

using the 

hook on 

the controller.
