Cleaning Your ControllerUpdated 2 hours ago
Your Foil Drive controller is regularly exposed to salt water, spray and sand. Cleaning it after every session helps prevent salt and debris from building up inside the controller and keeps the buttons, triggers and connections working reliably.
Follow these simple steps after every session.
Rinse With Fresh Water
Immediately after your session, rinse the controller thoroughly with fresh water.
This removes salt water, sand and other contaminants from the outside of the controller before they have a chance to dry.
If possible, rinse the controller as soon as you finish riding rather than waiting until you get home.
Soak in Warm Soapy Water
Once you are home, place the controller in warm, soapy fresh water for approximately 5 minutes.
This helps dissolve any remaining salt water and prevents salt crystals from forming inside and around the controller as the salt water dries.
Use a mild dishwashing detergent and warm water. There is no need for aggressive scrubbing or cleaning products.
After soaking, rinse the controller thoroughly with fresh water.
Allow the Controller to Dry
Allow the controller to dry completely before charging.
Place it somewhere dry with good airflow and allow any water around the buttons, triggers and charging port to drain and evaporate.
Important: Do not charge the controller while it is wet.
Regular cleaning after every session is one of the simplest ways to protect your controller from the effects of the marine environment and keep it operating reliably.
