DESCRIPTION OF PARTS

CHARGING OF THE IGNITION CONTROL UNIT (ICU) BATTERY

When batteries are being charged, tiny electric charges and potentially
also sparks may be generated. Never charge the batteries when there is
petrol or its vapours present as an electric discharge could cause an exp-
losion, which may result in serious injury or death.
The batteries power the electronic system of the motorized power board.
Correct handling of batteries, mainly when they are being charged up,
plays a crucial role for their safe use. Follow the provided instructions con-
cerning the use of the batteries and handling them. The failure to observe
these instructions may result in serious injury or death.
The control unit (ICU), starter and the electric bilge pump are powered from six (6) Li-Ion batteries
situated inside the control unit (ICU). In order to protect all the persons in the surroundings as well as
the user who is charging the batteries, please pay attention to these important steps:
– NEVER charge the batteries when the engine is in operation.
– NEVER charge the batteries when the ignition control unit (ICU) is ON
and the LED is flashing.
– NEVER charge the batteries when the engine of the motorized power
board is in water.
– ALWAYS wipe the charger connector dry and prevent any water from get-
ting into the charger connector.
NOTICE
– NEVER use the charger if the power cable is damaged mechanically
or oxidised.
– NEVER use a different charger other than the one specified by JetSurf™.
– ALWAYS put the charging connector cover back after charging.
– When charging, do not leave the charger unattended and do not expose it
to direct sun or at least cover it so that it could cool down
– Follow the manual supplied with the charger.
HOW TO CHARGE BATTERIES USING A CHARGER
The charger is supplied in a protective cover. When charging, you do not have to take the charger out
of the cover, it is adapted to charging.

1) Disconnect the 4-pin connector (red, white, blue and black),
which is attached to the cover of the connector placed on a metal
or rubber wire on the ICU fixture. When disconnecting, the cover
should be down and the charger connector up – F I G U R E 1
a n d 2 . You will thus prevent dampness getting into the charger
connector. Before connecting the charger, check the connector
and dry it if necessary.
2) Connect the charger to a 12 V socket in the car or to a 110/220 V
power cable.
Never charge the batteries while the car is moving as there is a dan-
ger of damage to both the charger and the ignition control unit (ICU).

unit (ICU) – F I G U R E 3 a n d 4 . Never disconnect the charger
when charging from the ICU!!!

will be displayed on the touch screen – F I G U R E 5 . The default
setting by the JetSurf manufacturer is charging of Li-Po batteries
which are charged in the same way as Li-Ion batteries in the ICU.
