CARE AND MAINTENANCE 
 

Battery Care 

  The battery should be recharged as soon as possible after each use. 

  If the unit is not used for extended periods, the battery should be removed from the unit and charged overnight 

every three months. 

  Only  use  the  charge  supplied  with  the  sea  scooter.    Replacements  can  be  purchased  from  your  dealer  or 

direct from us at X-Treme. 

  Never place the battery in a sealed container when charging. 

  Never place or store the battery near a radiator, fire, etc. 

  To  store  the  battery,  remove  it  from  the  sea  scooter  or  separate  it  from  the  charger,  insulate  the  battery 

terminals and keep in a place that is cool and dry. 

  Ambient temperature for storage should be within the range of 32° F to 77° F (0°C to 25° C). 

 

Care After Using The Sea Scooter 

  Always rinse the sea scooter in fresh water and allow it to dry before storage. 

  Whenever possible, rinse the sea scooter in fresh water immediately after use. 

  To clean the sea scooter do not use detergents.  Only use a damp cloth to wipe the unit clean. 

  The Battery Housing interior should be kept dry at all times. 

  If the Battery Housing interior ever gets wet, see page 15 

– Accidental Flooding – for procedure. 

  When storing the sea scooter for extended periods of time, open the Vent Plug in the Inner Nose Cone. 

  ALWAYS store your sea scooter vertically when not in use to prevent deformation of the Propeller Nozzle.
