Precautions
Please read the precautions given in the Blue Swimmer II User Manual.
The precautions must be observed and adhered to.
Â
Please pay particular attention to instructions about re-charging the device batteries.
Always ensure that the charging points are dry before the device is put on charge:
- Your pool water is an ionic solution that will carry an electric current.
- And the electrodes inside the charger connection are made of copper.
- The combination of electric current, copper electrodes, and ionic solution is a recipe for electrolysis.
- Over time, continued recharging while wet will corrode the electrodes and charging points on the device, and they may break off.
Failure to observe and adhere to these precautions may result in the warranty being voided.
