av-2 EVOLUTION

Hands-free riding with the scooter saddle (PATENTED)

Hands-free is an innovative riding style that allows an operator to steer the scooter with body movement; much

like a seal.

This inline body placement is more streamlined to effectively decrease fatigue, reduce air consumption, and

extend your dive time. Go further, get there faster, and have a lot more fun along the way.

The hands-free riding style increases your options while diving.

You are no longer limited to the hands-on riding style required by other vehicles.

The possibilities are endless.

Variable speed control (except for av-2C)

Quick and smooth speed control is now at your fingertip.

Speed adjustments are made via an accelerator lever that changes

the rotational speed of motor while vehicle is in use.

Adjustments are very smooth, allowing user to fine tune speed.

These enhancements are a significant improvement on the apollo vehicle

series.

This new design provides a far more advanced control system than is

available on other underwater scooter.

The apollo underwater vehicle is not heavy burden

The hands-tree riding style decreases fatigue, reduces air consumption, and extends your dive time.

In the past some divers have become fatigued from the energy and effort required to hold and steer an

underwater vehicle.

In addition to being a potential source of fatigue, the traditional hands-on riding style requires the user to place

themselves above the vehicle rather than inline.

Improvement in transportation options

The apollo underwater vehicle improves your ability to transport items underwater.

Your hands are free to carry what you need.

Additionally, fold out wings on both sides of the saddle are available for towing

ther divers or attaching other items of equipment.

The innovative apollo underwater vehicle challenges divers to create and find

new techniques and methods of use.

Go out and enjoy diving with this great new generation diving product.

Thank you for purchasing an apollo underwater vehicle.

The apollo underwater vehicle is revolutionary new underwater vehicle equipped with

functions and features that set it apart from previous models and other brands.

DANGER

CAUTION

WARNING

DANGER

ەIt is extremely important that scuba divers using this product have undergone theoretical and practical training

ࠉgiven by an internationally-recognized entity providing diving instruction.

ࠉDue to safety considerations, those who have not obtained a C-Card (attesting to the completion of training)

ࠉfrom an entity providing diving instruction must not under any circumstances use this product.

ࠉ(This does not apply to those using this product during training, under the supervision of an instructor attached to

ࠉan entity providing diving instruction.)

ࠉAmateurs lacking knowledge of basic scuba diving techniques risk serious injury or death.

ەNever scuba dive alone. Always dive under the buddy system.

ࠉDiving alone could lead to serious injury and death.

ەDue to the speed of the apollo underwater vehicle depth & pressure change may happen faster than usual.

ࠉThe diver must be aware at all times with regards the status of his depth and direction and carefully monitor his

ࠉascent rate as rapid surfacing and collisions could cause serious injury or death.

ࠉPlease practice driving at low speed until you become accustomed to the handling of the scooter.

CAUTION

ەMake sure you are in good physical condition before you scuba dive.

ࠉIf you begin to feel anxious, cold, tired or unwell, do not over exert yourself and stop your dive.

ەNever take alcohol or medicines (especially a nasal spray or medicine for a cold) before scuba diving.

ࠉThose who are in poor physical shape or suffer from a chronic ailment should consult a doctor before

ࠉconsidering diving.

WARNING

ەBefore deciding to use your scooter in an adverse environment or special situation please consult with a

ࠉqualified instructor at the place of purchase prior to undertaking your dive.

The above-mentioned table does not mention all prevention matters that could cause danger and injury.

Please carefully read and follow the instructions whenever you see the " " symbol in this book.

Precautions concerning the handling of the battery housing (head Assy) after removal.

●Silicone grease has been applied to the seals on the battery housing. Sand and other debris easily stick to this.

Be careful to avoid this situation.

●Water leakage is caused almost entirely by sand or other debris adhering to the seal area.

●Please put the battery housing (head Assy) in a safe clean place lying

down on the ribs located on its base.

●Please do not place it on sand or on rocks etc.

●Please stand the scooter vertically on the propeller cover.

Make sure it's on a flat stable surface so that it cannot fall over and cause

damage to the propeller cover and blades.

●If the scooter is wet, wipe all moisture off completely.

●Unfasten two locking buckles on the body seal.

A locking mechanism is attached to the locking buckle to prevent it from

releasing as a result of unexpected shocks.

①First, while pushing the square button in the center of

the locking buckle, lift the end of the buckle.

②Next, after releasing the buckle hook, flip the buckle

downward. Release two parts.

●It may be difficult to remove the battery housing (head Assy) due to negative pressure inside the body caused

by contact with the O-ring, temperature variation and other factors.

In this case, place the buckle latch under the locking hook and apply pressure with your

thumb while pushing upwards. Do this on both sides of the scooter concurrently to break

the seal and easily release the battery housing (head Assy).
