5.11 Air transport / transport of the
SEABOB
When transporting Li-Ion accumulators, always
observe the applicable safety regulations and the
specific regulations of the carrier. Be aware that safety
regulations can change from time to time. For up-to-date
information, please contact the manufacturer or your
specialist dealer.
Never transport a fully charged SEABOB by air-
craft or over long distances. The SEABOB should
only be partially charged during transport (charge state
"air transport / storage"). Only switch off the SEABOB
for transport when the aircraft symbol is displayed. If
instructions are disregarded, flammable gases can be
discharged causing serious injury.
For safety reasons, you should always charge the Li-Ion
accumulator cells to the partial charge state "air trans-
port / storage" before transporting the SEABOB over long
distances, particularly by aircraft. Switch off the SEABOB
completely (Off mode) (see Chapter 5.12 "Switching off
the SEABOB for storage or transport").
Be sure to read the information contained in Chapter 5.2
"Charging the SEABOB".
To prepare the device for transport, in particular
transport by aircraft, proceed as follows:
1. Place the SEABOB on a dry and sturdy surface that
will not damage the components.
2. Ensure that the connector, connection port and mains
plug are perfectly clean and dry. If necessary, dry them
off using a soft, clean cloth.
3. Plug the connector of the charger into the connection
port of the SEABOB. Then plug the mains plug of the
charger into the mains socket.
4. The charge display will appear on the SEABOB after a
brief system check. The device is now in Charge mode.
5. Tap the green button to select partial charging of the
SEABOB for air transport / transport. A partially filled
charge symbol will appear in the centre of the display
with an arrow to indicate partial charging ("charge
50 %").
6. When the aircraft symbol appears in the centre of the
display charging is complete and the correct charge
state for air transport / transport has been reached
("complete").
7. To save energy and to reduce maintenance charging,
the display turns itself off automatically 10 minutes
after charging is completed (“complete”). By pressing
any button, the display can be switched on again (for
another 10 minutes).
8. Disconnect the charger from the SEABOB (first pull
the mains plug from the mains socket, then discon-
nect the connector from the connection port of the
SEABOB).
Caution! The charger and connector can get hot
while charging. After you have finished charg-
ing, let the charger and connector cool down before you
touch them.
Accumulator charge state is too high:
The charging process is controlled automatically by the
charger and accumulator management system. If the ac-
cumulator voltage is too low, the charger automatically
recharges until the correct partial charge state has been
reached ("charge 50 %") and then stops the charging
process. You will recognise this process in the display by
the first bars beginning to appear in the accumulator
symbol until the aircraft symbol appears ("complete").
If the accumulator voltage is too high for extended trans-
port / air transport, the charger automatically discharges
until the correct partial charge state has been reached
("charge 50 %") and then stops the charging process.
You will recognise this process in the display by the bars
beginning to disappear in the accumulator symbol until
the aircraft symbol appears ("complete").
Note:
The discharge process can take up to 24 hours.
Alternatively, you can reduce the excessive charge state
Irrespective of the trickle charge, the status of the
charging process must be checked at least every
four weeks.
Note:
Ensure that SEABOB and charger are not exposed
to too high or too low temperatures during trickle charg-
ing. The accumulator management system will temporar-
ily interrupt the charging process at temperatures over
45 °C / 113 °F or below 0 °C / 32 °F. The charging process
will continue as soon as the admissible charging tem-
perature of below 40 °C / 104 °F or over 5 °C / 41 °F
is reached again. If the charging process is interrupted
for a longer period of time due to charging temperatures
which are too high or too low, this can result in the ir-
reparable total discharge of the valuable Li-Ion accumu-
lator cells even if they were constantly connected to an
active charger.
Never expose the SEABOB and the charger to high
temperatures (max. 60 °C / 140 °F) caused e.g. by
open fire, direct sunlight or by storage inside a closed
motor vehicle or boot. If exposed to heat, flammable
gases can be discharged causing serious injury. In addi-
tion, the TFT display may become irreparably damaged if
exposed to heat.
Protect the charger, in particular the connector
and mains plug as well as the connection port on
the SEABOB from damage, dirt, dust, moisture and heat.
Not doing so may result in electric shock!
When storing the SEABOB, never stand it upright
on the front bumper or on the water outlet of the
jet channel. The SEABOB could tip over and be damaged
or damage other objects. Furthermore, this could prove
to be dangerous for any persons in close proximity.
8. You can now disconnect the charger from the SEABOB
(first pull the mains plug from the mains socket, then
pull the connector from the connection port of the
SEABOB).
Caution! The charger and connector can get hot
while charging. After you have finished charg-
ing, let the charger and connector cool down before you
touch them.
9. After the charger is disconnected from the SEABOB,
the system switches off completely (switches to Off
mode) after 5 seconds (system check) if programmed
to partial charging. For safety reasons relating to air
transport, the system can only be switched back on
from Off mode using a connected and active charger.
10. Store the SEABOB on a stable, level surface in a place
that is cool, dry, well ventilated and frostproof. The
optimum storage temperature is +10 to +25 °C / +50
to +77 °F.
High temperatures may shorten the life of the Li-
Ion accumulator cells.
When storing the device for an extended period,
you should repeat the charging process after
4 weeks at the latest to maintain the minimum charge
state required for storage. If this is not done, total dis-
charge may result, causing irreparable chemical damage
to the valuable High-Energy Li-Ion accumulator cells. The
internal accumulator management system will not per-
mit further charging of a totally discharged accumulator
(under 2.5 V per Li-Ion accumulator cell).
For storage exceeding 4 weeks, in particular storage over
the winter, we recommend keeping the activated charger
connected continuously to the SEABOB (trickle charge)
to maintain the required charge state and prevent total
discharge. Before doing this, make sure that you activate
charge state "air transport / storage" in the menu (see
also Chapter 5.3.8 "Charge display"). The charging pro-
cess is controlled automatically by the charger and ac-
cumulator management system.
