From the shuttle pad area, there's a wall ladder going up the side of a tank structure. Climb the ladder to the top and go inside the coolant tank. Jump in the water. Clank's turbo water wings engage and Rachet has his O2 mask. Remember that Rachet has unlimited oxygen supply, so we can stay underwater as long as we need to.

Suspended in the water around the perimiter of the tank, are 3 timer sensor rings. As Rachet swims through each ring, the sensor activates, lighting the ring. You can hear a timer start. Swim through all 3 rings before the timer runs out, and this will activate a nearby underwater portal. The portal iris will open up a new tunnel section. Rachet will need to use turbo swim mode to get through all 3 rings in time. (very similar to the floor timer sensors on Qwark's home planet)

Swim through the new tunnel section. Criss-crossing the tunnel, are crawling drone spiders with laser beams. Watch the cycle of the beams and turbo swim around them. If you touch a laser, Rachet suffers health damage. The laser beams can come from different directions, so pay attention to the back and forth cycle of the spiders before trying to swim past them. Up ahead is an open tank. Swim up to the surface and climb out onto the platform.

Up ahead in the next tank chamber there is something very omenous happening. The water coolant is electrified. You can see and hear the blue sparks arcing across the water. One touch and Rachet is quickly electricuted. Go across the connecting walkway to the center platform with the flashing floor sensor. Walk across the floor sensor to deactivate the electricty in the water. You'll notice a timer at the bottom of the screen will start counting down from 60 seconds.

 |
This is a race against the timer. Rachet has 60 seconds to swim the next section before the timer runs out and the electricity is turned on again. Every time you walk across the floor sensor, the timer resets to 60 seconds. So.. get ready and plan your jump into the water to line-up with the underwater portal. Jump in the water, dive down and swim in turbo mode through the first circular tunnel. Avoid the spider laser beams as best you can, swimming from left to right, making sure you stay near the side edges of the tunnel.
|
Activate the 3 sensor rings in the next tank and open another portal and tunnel section. Swim through that section, then around the square tank with all the spider laser beams. Swim through the last tunnel and then surface at the end of the last tunnel and jump out quickly. The timer should still have 5-6 seconds left.

As you stand on the platform, the water re-electrifies. Up ahead is a glowing bolt detector. This is an add-on gadget that Rachet wears on his belt. It will attract bolts from far away, saving valuable time and unneccessary distraction. Whack all the crates in the area, clean-up all the bolts, and take the much-needed Nanotech health sphere. Walk out the portal and jet-hover down to the shuttle pad. This mission is now complete. Time to go to Planet Kalebo 3.
