Battery Use

CAUTION

• Your  SEASCOOTER

 is supplied with a battery that 

needs to be treated carefully as it will release 

potentially explosive gases during its normal cycle of 

use (off-gassing). Failure to do so can result in an 

explosion occurring. Please read the entire manual 

thoroughly and follow all instructions.

•  Always remove the battery from your SEASCOOTER

 

when it is not in use and store separately in a well 

ventilated area where it is out of the reach of children 

and away from heat and ignition sources.

• Do not attach the battery in your SEASCOOTER

™ 

until 

prior to using it.

• Before removing/placing the battery, open the nose 

cone and allow two minutes for any explosive gases to 

dissipate.

• Do not use/store/charge the battery in temperatures 

above  40ºC (104ºF) as excessive off-gassing may 

occur. Keep the battery and SEASCOOTER

  in the 

shade when not in use.

• Always ensure the unit is dried thoroughly before 

opening the Nose Cone.

•  Only use the charger supplied with the SEASCOOTER

.
