GETTING STARTED

CAUTION:
• Never use this seascooter in sandy water condition. Sands will cause damages to the motors and shorten the lifespan of the unit.
IMPORTANT INFORMATION:
Sand or Grit on Seals
Ensure sand/grit does not get on the seals as correct maintenance and care are essential. To remove sand or grit, rinse the seals in fresh water and apply fresh lubricant.
If there is sand inside the battery housing, gently brush the sand from the unit taking care not to scratch the sealing surfaces.
