GETTING STARTED

Before you use the RS series Seascooter for the first time, the battery needs to be charged. Follow the Battery Cautions on page 6 and Charging
instructions on page 7.
Your Seascooter RS1 & RS2 can be used for swimming, snorkeling or diving up to 40m/130ft (by qualified divers).
Your Seascooter RS3 can be used for swimming, snorkeling or diving up to 30m/100ft (by qualified divers).
To use the Seascooter, follow these instructions.
1. Follow instructions on page 7 and charge the battery just before use.
2. Place the Seascooter into the water and rock gently to release trapped air.
3. The RS unit automatically assumes neutral buoyancy. Use the accessory lead ballast weights for making small buoyancy adjustments (see Fig. 23).
4. Slide both clip-on accessory fins onto the rear grille fixture points of your RS unit (see Fig. 24).
5. When ready to set off, switch the Master Switch to the ON position (see Fig. 25).
6. The RS unit can be operated by pushing only one trigger or both triggers at the same time. Push the left or right Trigger to start the Propeller
(see Fig. 26). The Seascooter will accelerate up to speed 1. (There is a short delay before the Propeller begins to rotate).
7. To increase speed at any time, simply pulse the left or right trigger off and on again within half a second. The Seascooter will accelerate up to the next
speed level.
8. When at maximum speed, further pulses will have no effect.
(RS1 & RS2 - 3 speeds, RS3 - 2 speeds)
9. To stop the Propeller, simply release both Triggers.
10. Always set the Master Switch to the OFF position when the RS unit is out of the water. (see Fig. 27)
11. Maintain proper posture to achieve the maximum speed when using the Seascooter.
– see Fig. 28 for the correct position of the Seascooter when using it.
