Sand or grit is the enemy of O-ring Seals. To remove sand or grit from the O-ring Seal, rinse the O-ring Seal in fresh water and apply fresh lubricant (Model no.: Vites SG60N00, Vites SG60N0, Vites SG60N1, Vites SG60N2, Vites SG60N3). If there is sand inside the Battery Housing, gently brush the sand from the unit, take care not to scratch the sealing surface.
If an O-ring Seal is damaged, replaced it with a new one and apply fresh lubricant (Model no.: Vites SG60N00, Vites SG60N0, Vites SG60N1, Vites SG60N2, Vites SG60N3) before use.

This situation may happen to the SEA-DOO® sea scooter Explorer as it has a built-in water leakage sensor. When a buzzer is heard or the propeller becomes intermittent, this may means water has entered the housing(s). For safety, turn OFF the master switch, remove the SEA-DOO® sea scooter from the water and check the Battery Pod and Battery Chamber for water ingress. Always observe safe diving practice if this occurs during a dive. If salt water has entered into the chamber, rinse it out with fresh water. Dry the battery pod and battery chamber thoroughly and resemble for use.
If the Battery Pod and Battery Chamber is dry and the water leakage sensor continues to beep then there is a leak in the motor housing. Remove the Battery Pod and contact customer service centre / repair centre for maintenance.
