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
™
.
