5. Operation
5.1 Start-up
Before using the SEABOB for the first time, read
through this Operator's Manual carefully, includ-
ing the safety information and the instructions on
proper use.
Only use the SEABOB as intended (see Chapter 2 "Proper
use").
Take the SEABOB and the charger out of the packaging,
and place them on a dry and sturdy surface that will not
damage the components.
Do not throw away the packaging. It can be used later
(for example, when sending the device in for service).
The SEABOB is delivered in a partially charged state. To
avoid total discharge, you should charge the SEABOB
immediately after delivery (within 1 week) to at least
the charge state "Air Transport / Storage". Use only the
charger supplied by CAYAGO AMERICAS INC. or the op-
tionally available Quick Charger to charge the SEABOB.
Charge the SEABOB after each use (within 24 hours) and
continuously during longer periods of storage (trickle-
charge) to at least the charge state "Air Transport / Stor-
age" to avoid irreparable total discharge of the valuable
High-Energy Lithium-Ion batteries. Be sure to read the in-
formation provided in this Operator's Manual on charg-
ing the SEABOB.
5.2 Charging the SEABOB
Never expose the SEABOB and 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 trunk. If exposed to
heat, flammable gases can be discharged causing seri-
ous injury. In addition, the Display Screen may become
irreparably damaged if exposed to heat.
Protect the charger, in particular the connector and mains
plug as well as the connection port of the SEABOB, from
damage, dirt, dust, moisture and heat.
Danger of electric shock!
Charge only in dry, cool and well ventilated locations.
Never use the charger if any cables or plugs are dam-
aged. Doing so can cause electric shock, resulting in se-
vere injury or death.
Only use chargers supplied by CAYAGO AMERICAS INC.
and for each respective specific SEABOB model.
During the charging process, do not place any objects
on the SEABOB or charger to ensure that heat produced
during charging is dissipated properly (convection cool-
ing). Ensure that air can circulate freely, and position
the optionally available Quick Charger on the provided
positioning legs. Should the charger (or Quick Charger)
overheat, it automatically reduces the output current to
prevent thermal overload. If this happens, the charging
process is prolonged accordingly. If the SEABOB is hot,
let it cool down before charging.
To charge the SEABOB, proceed as follows:
1. Place the SEABOB on a sturdy and dry surface that
will not damage the components.
2. Dry the area around the connection port using a soft,
clean cloth.
3. Twist the screw cap on the connection port counter-
clockwise against a slight resistance and remove the
screw cap from the connection port. Check that the
inside of the connection port is perfectly clean and dry.
4. Check that the connector is clean and dry.
