SPECIAL SAFETY MESSAGES

Reminders RegardingOperation– Engine exhaust contains carbon

monoxide (CO), which can causeinjury or death if inhaled in sufficientquantities. Educate all occupantsabout the risks and symptoms ofCO accumulation and CO poison-ing. For more information, refer toCARBON MONOXIDE AND BOAT-ING section.

– Gasoline vapors can explode, result-ing in injury or death. Always useblower for a minimum of 5 minutesbefore starting engine, then turn itOFF above idle speed. Use of thebilge blower should never replace“smelling” for gasoline vapor odors.

– If at any time, gasoline leaks/odorsare found, do not start the engine.Have the boat serviced by an autho-rized Sea-Doo Boats dealer.

– Always keep in mind that as thethrottle lever is returned to the idleposition, less directional control isavailable. To turn the boat, bothsteering and throttle are necessary.

– This boat has no brake. Stoppingdistance will vary depending on ini-tial speed, load, wind, and waterconditions. Practice stopping anddocking in a safe, traffic-free area tohave an idea of how long it will taketo stop the boat under varying con-ditions. Do not release the throttlewhen trying to steer away from ob-jects. You need throttle to steer. Donot use the boat's reverse to stop.

– Do not start or operate the boat ifany person is not properly seatedin a seat intended for use when un-derway (not the sun deck or swimplatform or transat seat) or if a per-son is nearby in the water.

– The boat's jet thrust can cause in-jury. Always accelerate slowly, anddecelerate in a controlled fashion.

– Observe the instructions on allsafety labels. They are there to helpassure that you have a safe and en-joyable outing.

– Riding with passenger(s) or pullingother boats, tubes, a skier or a wakeboarder makes the boat handle dif-ferently and requires greater skill.

– Certain boats may come equippedwith tow eyelets, a ski pole or awakeboard tower which can beused to attach a tow rope for a skier,tube or wakeboarder. Do not usethese attachment points or anyother portion of the boat to tow aparasail or another craft. Personalinjury or severe damage may occur.

– In shallow water, proceed withcaution and at very low speeds.Grounding or abrupt stops may re-sult in injury to you, your passengersor others. The jet pump may pick updebris and throw it rearward causinga risk of injuring people or damagingthe jet pump or other property.

– Combustion engines need air tooperate; consequently this boatcan not be totally watertight. Anymaneuvers such as figure eightsthat cause the upper deck to be un-der water may cause severe en-gine problems due to water inges-tion. Refer to the SPECIAL PROCE-DURES and WARRANTY sectionscontained in this Operator's Guide.

– Respect no wake zones, the rightsof other water users and the en-vironment. As the “skipper” andowner of a boat, you are responsiblefor damage to other boats causedby the wake of your boat. Do not letanyone throw refuse overboard.

– Between sunset and sunrise, usethe boat's navigation lights and re-duce speed. Do not operate theboat in reduced visibility.

10 _______ SAFETY INFORMATION ________


– Do not add accessories or equip-ment that may adversely affect visi-bility or alter control of the boat.

– The skipper should personally takethe helm during storms.

Before Getting Underway

– Always perform the pre-ride inspec-tion as specified in this Operator'sGuide.

– Do not exceed the payload or pas-senger capacities for this boat,which are listed on the capacityplate located directly beside thedriver and in the specifications.Overloading can affect maneuver-ability, stability and performance.Also, heavy seas reduce capacity. Apayload or person capacity plate isnot an excuse for failure to use com-mon sense or good judgment.

– Regularly inspect the boat, the hull,engine, safety equipment, and allother boating gear and keep them insafe operating condition.

– Be sure you have at least theminimum required safety equip-ment, PFDs and any additional gearneeded for your cruise.

– Check that all lifesaving equipment,including fire extinguisher (not in-cluded in boat), is in safe operat-ing condition and easily accessible.Show all passengers where thisequipment is, and make sure theyknow how to use it.

– Keep an eye on the weather. Checklocal weather broadcasts before de-parture. Be alert to changing condi-tions.

– Keep accurate and up-to-date chartsof the boating area on board. Beforegetting underway, check water con-ditions in the planned boating area.

– Before departure, file a Float Planwith a responsible person ashore.

– Keep enough fuel on board for theplanned trip. Always verify fuel levelbefore use and during the ride. Ap-ply the principle of 1/3 of the fuel toreach your destination, 1/3 to return,and keep 1/3 in reserve. Allow forchanges due to adverse weather orother delays.

Operators and PassengersAwareness

– Each boat operator has a responsi-bility to ensure the safety of his/herpassenger(s) and of other waterusers. Please follow all safety in-structions and operate your boatwith care.

– Never operate a boat while underthe influence of drugs or alcohol.It is a Federal offense. Allow onlyqualified drivers to operate yourboat.

– Remember that sun, wind, fatigueor illness may impair your judge-ment and reaction time.

– At least one passenger should beable to operate the boat in case theoperator is unexpectedly unable todo so.

– Operation of this boat by a personunder 16 years of age or a personwith a disability that impairs vision,reaction time, judgment, or opera-tion of the controls is NOT recom-mended.

– Always use the tether cord whenoperating the boat and ensure thatall passengers are familiar with itsuse.

– Ensure that any operator and allpassengers know how to swimand how to re-board the boat fromthe water. If a passenger does notknow how to swim, ensure that pas-senger wears a PFD at all times andtake extra precautions when boat-ing.



Carbon Monoxide andBoatingBurning a material containing carbonproduces carbon monoxide (CO), anodorless and colorless gas. BecauseCO has a similar density as air, it canspread throughout an enclosed spaceunnoticed because you cannot see it orsmell it. Any device used to burn car-bon-based materials on a boat can be asource of CO. Common sources of COinclude internal combustion engines.CO reacts with the blood to reducethe ability of the blood to carry oxygen.The reduced oxygen supply to bodytissues results in death of the tissue.Prolonged exposure can cause braindamage or death. In high concentra-tions, CO can be fatal within minutes.The effects of CO in lower concentra-tions are cumulative and can be just aslethal over long periods of time.Symptoms of CO poisoning include:Itchy and watering eyes, flushedappearance, throbbing temples, in-ability to think coherently, ringing inthe ears, tightness across the chest,headaches, drowsiness, nausea, dizzi-ness, fatigue, vomiting, collapse, andconvulsions. If any of these symptomsare evident, begin treatment immedi-ately. Prompt action can make thedifference between life and death.– Evacuate the area and move the vic-

tim to fresh air.

– Administer oxygen if available andget medical help.

– Open all canvas enclosures to venti-late the area.

– Investigate the source of CO andtake immediate corrective action.

– Be especially aware of other COsources which may be near boat.

Carbon Monoxide Accumulation

Following are examples of possiblesituations where CO may accumu-late within your boat while docked,anchored, or underway. Become fa-miliar with these examples and theirprecautions to prevent personal injuryor death.

WARNINGExhaust fumes! Generator or hullexhaust from other vessels whileeither docked or anchored canemit poisonous CO gas and causeexcessive accumulation withincabin and cockpit areas. Be alertfor generator exhaust from yourvessel or other vessels alongside.Exhaust outlets near a pier, dock,seawall or outlets blocked by anyother means can cause excessiveaccumulation of poisonous CO gaswithin cockpit area.

��

VESSEL ALONGSIDE



WARNINGEngine exhaust fumes contain carbon monoxide (CO) which can accumu-late in and around the boat (under bimini top, in cockpit, etc.). CO can beharmful or fatal if inhaled. Assure there is adequate ventilation wheneverrunning engine.

Boat houses, seawalls, and other boats in close proximity or confined areas cancontribute to increased CO levels. Operators must be aware that operation,mooring, and anchoring in an area with other boats puts them in jeopardy of COaccumulation from other sources. Likewise, a boat operator must be awareof how exhaust from his boat will affect others. Operation of the engine whilemoored may cause CO accumulation in your boat and those around you.

��

CONFINED AREAS

Be sure to provide adequate ventilation. If the windshield has vents, open thembefore getting underway to increase positive air flow and decrease the chancesof CO accumulation.

WARNINGBackdrafting! Under certain conditions, moving air currents can directpoisonous CO fumes into boat. These fumes can accumulate to dangerouslevels without proper airflow. Provide adequate ventilation, redistributethe load or bring boat out of high bow angle.

While underway, CO concentrations can increase by backdrafting or “the stationwagon effect”. Backdrafting is caused by factors such as relative wind direction,speed, or the bow being too high. To prevent this, open canvas whenever possi-ble to provide positive airflow through the hull.



��

WHILE UNDERWAY (BACKDRAFTING)

Even with the best boat design andconstruction, CO may still accumulatein enclosed or confined areas undercertain conditions. Continually ob-serve passengers for symptoms ofCO poisoning.

CO DetectorIt is strongly recommended that youhave CO detectors installed in boatswith canvas enclosures. Monitors areavailable from your dealer. Monitorsshould be professionally installed andcalibrated.NOTE: A CO detector is not a gas fuelvapor detector. Gas fuel vapor detec-tors do not monitor the buildup of COin an enclosed area.

Do NOT Operate your Boat withoutPerforming the Following Checklist

Each Boating Day

OPERATION ✔

Make sure you and your passengersknow where exhaust outlets arelocated on the vessel.

Educate all passengers about thesymptoms of CO poisoning andwhere CO may accumulate.

When docked or rafting with anotherboat, be aware of exhaust emissionsfrom the other boat.

Listen for any change in exhaustsound, which could indicate anexhaust component failure.

Test the operation of each COalarm by pressing the test button (ifapplicable).



Water Sports

WARNINGAvoid personal injury! Your boatis not designed for and should notbe used for pulling parasails, kites,gliders, or any device which canbecome airborne. Use boat onlyfor appropriate water sports.

WARNINGTeak surfing is extremely danger-ous to participants due to theirproximity to the rear of the boatwhere direct contact with the ex-haust fumes from the boat engineis the highest. Carbon monoxidepoisoning can occur and result inmental disorientation, dizziness,drowsiness, and loss of conscious-ness. The combination of carbonmonoxide exposure and non-useof a life jacket (PFD) make this newwater recreation activity an incred-ibly dangerous and potentiallydeadly sport.

Water skiing, wakeboarding, or ridinga towed, inflatable apparatus are someof the more popular water sports. Tak-ing part in any water sport requiresincreased safety awareness by theparticipant and the boat operator. Ifyou have never pulled someone be-hind your boat before, it is a good ideato spend some hours as an observer,working with and learning from an ex-perienced driver. It is also important tobe aware of the skill and experience ofthe person being pulled. Always havea second person on board to observethe person in the water so the drivercan concentrate on operating the boat.Both the boat operator and observershould monitor the location of thetow rope when participating in watersports. A slack tow rope can becomeentangled with person(s) or objects

in the boat or in the water, particularlywhen making a tight turn or circling,and cause serious personal injury.Everyone participating in a water sportshould observe these guidelines:– Allow only capable swimmers to

take part in any water sport.– Always wear an approved personal

flotation device (PFD). Wearinga properly designed PFD helps astunned or unconscious person stayafloat. A Type-IV water-ski vest is anapproved and practical PFD.

– Have a second person aboard toobserve the person being towedand inform the driver about the par-ticipant's hand signals. The drivermust give full attention to operatingthe boat and the waters ahead.

– Be considerate to others you sharethe water with.

– Never allow a person to “teak surf”behind your boat. Do not tow a per-son in any water sport on a shorttow rope such that the person in-hales exhaust fumes in concentra-tion. Inhalation of concentrated ex-haust fumes, which contain carbonmonoxide, can result in CO poison-ing, personal injury and death.

– Give immediate attention to a per-son who has fallen. He or she isvulnerable in the water alone andmay not be seen by other boaters.

– Approach a person in the water fromthe lee side (opposite the directionof the wind). Turn off the motor be-fore coming close to the person.

– Turn off engine and anchor the boatbefore swimming.

– Participate in water sports onlyin safe areas. Stay away fromother boats, channels, beaches,restricted areas, swimmers, andheavily traveled waterways and un-derwater obstructions.

– Swim only in areas designated assafe for swimming. These are usu-ally marked with a swim area buoy.Do not swim alone or at night.



��

SWIM AREA BUOY

1. Do not water ski between sunsetand sunrise. It is illegal in moststates.

2. Do not drive the boat directly behinda water skier, tuber or wakeboarder.Do not drive the boat directly behinda water skier, tuber or wakeboarderas the boat may overtake a personwho falls in the water.

3. Shut engine off and remove ignitionkey when anyone is in the waternearby.

4. Stay at least 45 m (150 ft) awayfrom areas marked by a diver downfloat.

��

DIVER DOWN FLOAT

WARNINGAvoid personal injury! Do not al-low anyone near the jet pump orintake grate, even when the en-gine is off. Items such as long hair,loose clothing or personal flota-tion device straps can become en-tangled in moving parts resultingin serious injury or drowning. Inshallow water, shells, sand, peb-bles or other objects could bedrawn up by the jet pump and bethrown rearward.

For more information about water ski-ing, please contact your local water skiassociation.

HypothermiaHypothermia, the loss of body heatto the water, is a significant cause ofdeaths in boating accidents. Afteran individual has been overcome byhypothermia, he or she will lose con-sciousness and then drown.PFDs can increase survival time be-cause of the insulation they provide.Naturally, the warmer the water, theless insulation one will require. Whenoperating in cold water (below 4.4°C(40°F)) consideration should be givento using a coat or jacket style PFD asthey cover more of the body than thevest style PFDs.Some points to remember about hy-pothermia protection:1. While afloat in the water, do not

attempt to swim unless it is toreach a nearby boat, fellow sur-vivor, or a floating object on whichyou can lean or climb. Unneces-sary swimming increases the rateof body heat loss. In cold water,drown-proof methods that requireputting your head in the water arenot recommended. Keep yourhead out of the water. This willgreatly lessen heat loss and in-crease your survival time.

2. Keep a positive attitude about yoursurvival and rescue. This will im-prove your chances of extendingyour survival time until rescued.Your will to live does make a differ-ence!

3. If there is more than one personin the water, huddling is recom-mended while waiting to be res-cued. This action tends to reducethe rate of heat loss and thus in-crease the survival time.

4. Always wear your PFD. It won'thelp you fight off the effects of hy-pothermia if you don't have it onwhen you go into the water.

Voluntary InspectionsBoating officials in many countries ortheir auxiliaries offer courtesy inspec-tions to check out your boat. They willcheck for compliance with safety stan-dards and required safety equipment.You may voluntarily consent to one ofthese inspections, and you are allowedtime to make corrections without pros-ecution. Check with the competentauthorities for details.

Safe Boating CoursesMany countries recommend or requirea boating safety course. Check withyour local competent authorities.


SAFETY EQUIPMENT

Mandatory SafetyEquipmentOperator and passenger(s) shouldhave ready access to shatterproofglasses should riding conditions orpersonal preference warrant.Wind, water spray and speed maycause blurred vision.As the owner of the boat, you are re-sponsible for assuring that all manda-tory safety equipment is aboard.Safety equipment required by regula-tions is mandatory. Check state andlocal regulations for information aboutrequired safety equipment. Manda-tory safety equipment must be ap-proved by a recognized authority of theCountry where the boat is used.

Personal Flotation Devices (PFDs)

In many countries, regulations requirethat you have at least one approvedpersonal flotation device (PFD) of thecorrect size for each person in a recre-ational boat and require that all childrenunder 13 years of age wear a PFD atall times when the boat is underway,except when below deck or in an en-closed cabin. You may not use yourboat unless all PFDs are in service-able condition, readily accessible, legi-bly marked with the approval number,and of an appropriate size (within theweight range and chest size markedon the PFD) for each person on board.A PFD provides buoyancy to help keepyour head above the water and to helpyou remain in a satisfactory positionwhile in the water. Body weight andage should be considered when se-lecting a PFD. The buoyancy providedby the PFD should support your weightin water. The size of the PFD shouldbe appropriate for the wearer. Bodyweight and chest size are commonmethods used to size PFDs. It is yourresponsibility to ensure that you havethe proper number and types of PFDson board to comply with federal and

local regulations and that your passen-gers know where they are and how touse them.

PFD TypesPFD Type I, Wearable has the greatestrequired buoyancy. Its design allowsfor turning most unconscious personsin the water from face down position toa vertical or slightly backward, face-upposition. It can greatly increase thechances of survival. Type I is mosteffective for all waters, especially off-shore when rescue may be delayed. Itis also the most effective in rough wa-ters.

��

TYPE I — WEARABLE

PFD Type II, Wearable turns its wearerin the same way as Type I, but not aseffectively. The Type Il does not turn asmany persons under the same condi-tions as a Type I. You may prefer to usethis PFD where there is a probability ofquick rescue such as in areas whereother people are commonly involved inwater activities.


SAFETY EQUIPMENT

��

TYPE II — WEARABLE

PFD Type III, Wearable allows wear-ers to place themselves in a verticalor slightly backward position. It doesnot turn the wearer. It maintains thewearer in a vertical or slightly back-ward position and has no tendencyto turn the wearer face down. It hasthe same buoyancy as a Type Il PFDand may be appropriate in areas whereother people are commonly involved inwater activities.

��

TYPE III — WEARABLE

PFD Type IV, Throwable is requiredin addition to the PFDs previously dis-cussed. The most common Type IVPFD is a buoyant cushion or ring buoy.It is designed to be thrown to a per-son in the water, grasped and held bythe user until he or she is rescued. AType IV PFD should always be in ser-viceable condition and immediatelyavailable for use. Grasping this PFDmay be difficult if the rescue is delayedor if the user is overcome by hypother-mia (loss of body heat).

��

TYPE IV — THROWABLE

PFD Type V, Wearable must be worn.When inflated, it provides buoyancyequivalent to Type I, Il or III PFDs.When it is deflated, however, it maynot support some people.

��

TYPE V — WEARABLE

PFD PointersThe purpose of a PFD is to help saveyour life. If you want it to support youwhen you are in the water, it needs tofit, float, and be in good condition.– Try the PFD on and adjust it until it

fits comfortably in and out of thewater. Mark your PFD if you are theonly wearer.

– To make sure the PFD works, wearit in the water. This will show youhow it works and give you confi-dence when you use it.


SAFETY EQUIPMENT

– Teach children how to put a PFD onand allow them to try it in the water.That way, they know what the PFDis for and how it works. They willfeel more comfortable with it if theysuddenly find themselves in the wa-ter.

– If the PFD is wet, allow it to drythoroughly before storing it. Do notdry it in front of a radiator or heater.Store it in a well-ventilated area.

– Keep PFDs away from sharp objectswhich can tear the fabric or puncturethe flotation pads.

– For their own safety and the safetyof others, all non-swimmers, poorswimmers, and small childrenshould wear PFD's at all timeswhether the boat is stationary ormoving.

– Check the PFD frequently to makesure that it is not torn, that flota-tion pads have no leaks, and that allseams and joints are securely sewn.

– If a PFD contains a material whichmay become waterlogged and loseits buoyancy after the vinyl insertsare punctured, replace it immedi-ately if it becomes hard or soakedwith water. It may not work whenyou need it.

Fire Extinguishers

As the owner of the boat, you are re-sponsible for supplying an approvedfire extinguisher. Check with localcompetent authorities.Boats (less than 7.9 m (26 ft)) are re-quired to carry one (1) B-1 type handportable fire extinguisher unless theboat is equipped with a fixed fire ex-tinguishing system in the engine com-partment.Hand-held portable fire extinguishersshould be mounted in readily accessi-ble locations away from the enginecompartment. All persons aboardshould know the location and properoperation of the fire extinguisher(s).

NOTE: Don't test fire extinguishers bysquirting small amounts of the extin-guishing compound. The extinguishermight not work when you really needit!

WARNINGIn case of fire, do not open en-gine compartment. Turn off en-gine. Using portable C02 fire extin-guisher, continuously dischargeentire contents at base of fire.

Visual Distress Signal Devices

Visual distress signal equipmentmay be of the pyrotechnic ornon-pyrotechnic type. Regulationsprohibit display of visual distresssignals on the water under any cir-cumstances except when assistanceis required to prevent immediate orpotential danger to persons on board avessel. Check with the local authorityto have proper equipment.The equipment must be approved bythe competent authorities, be in ser-viceable condition, and be stowed ina readily accessible location. Equip-ment having a date for serviceable lifemust be within the specified usagedate shown.Careful selection and proper stowageof visual distress equipment is very im-portant if children are aboard.

DAY USE ONLY

Three orange smoke signals (one handheld and two floating) or one orange flagwith black square and disk.

NIGHT USE ONLY

One S-O-S electric distress light.

DAY AND NIGHT USE

Three flares of the hand held, meteor orparachute type.


SAFETY EQUIPMENT

Sound Signaling Devices

NOTE: No single signaling device isappropriate for all purposes. Considerkeeping various types of equipment onboard.Boats less than 7.9 m (26 ft) in lengthare required to carry a hand, mouth,or power operated horn or whistle. Itmust produce a blast of two secondduration and audible at a distance of atleast 800 m (1/2 mi).Following are standard whistle signals:– One prolonged blast (warning sig-

nal)– One short blast (pass on my port

side)– Two short blasts (pass on my star-

board side)– Three short blasts (engines in re-

verse)– Five or more blasts (danger signal).

Navigation Lights

Navigation lights are intended to keepother vessels informed of your pres-ence and course. If you are out on thewater between sunset and sunrise,you are required to display appropriatenavigation lights.

Additional RecommendedEquipmentIt is recommended that you acquire ad-ditional equipment for safe, enjoyablecruising (some could be mandatory bylegislation). This list, which is not all in-clusive, includes items you should con-sider acquiring.

PRACTICE EXERCISES

It is always a good idea to practice andget familiar with all controls, functionsand handling characteristics of yourboat before venturing on the water.Always secure the tether cord to theengine cut-off switch and the clip toyour PFD or a wrist strap.

Where to PracticeExercisesFind a suitable area to practice the ex-ercises. Ensure the area meet the fol-lowing requirements:– No traffic– No obstacles– No swimmers– No current– Ample space to maneuver– Water depth is adequate.

Practice ExercisesPractice alone the following exercises.

Turning

Practice turning in circles in both di-rections at slow speed. When com-fortable with the exercise, increasedifficulty by making some figure 8.When this is mastered, repeat theabove exercises but at increasedspeed.

Stopping Distances

Practice stopping the boat in a straightline at different speeds.Remember, water drag is the main fac-tor which reduces the boat speed andthus the stopping distance.NOTE: The boat speed, load, currentand wind also play an important role inaffecting stopping distances.

WARNINGDo not use the boat's reverse tostop.

Reverse

Practice reverse operation to learnhow the boat operates in reverse andreacts with steering inputs.NOTE: Always perform this exerciseat slow speeds.

Avoiding an Obstacle

Practice to avoid an obstacle (choose avirtual point on the water) by steeringboat and maintaining throttle.Repeat exercise, but this time releasethrottle while turning.NOTE: With this exercise, you willlearn that you need throttle to steer theboat in a different direction.

Docking

Practice docking using the throttle andshift lever along with the steering tobecome familiar with the responseof the boat and develop good controlskills.

Ski Mode and Cruise Control Mode

If your boat has the Ski Mode or CruiseControl mode, it is also important tounderstand their operation and to be-come familiar with these features priorto use them on a ride with other peo-ple.

WARNINGThese operating modes are not anautomatic pilot and are not meantas a replacement for an experi-enced operator.

Important Factors Not toNeglectIn addition, always remember that thefollowing conditions have a direct im-pact on how your boat will behave andrespond to different inputs:– Load change– Currents


PRACTICE EXERCISES

– Wind– Water conditions.Make sure to be alert to these condi-tions, and adapt accordingly. If pos-sible, practice further in these condi-tions.For delicate maneuvers, the best ad-vice is always to reduce your speed toa minimum.


SAFE BOATING PRACTICES

YOU are responsible for your ownsafety, the safety of your passengers,and the safety of fellow boaters.

Drugs and AlcoholDo not use drugs or drink alcohol whileoperating a boat. Like driving a car,driving a boat requires sober, attentivecare. Operating a boat while intoxi-cated or under the influence of drugsis not only dangerous, but it is also aFederal offense carrying a significantpenalty. These laws are vigorously en-forced. The use of drugs and alcohol,singly or in combination, decreasesreaction time, impedes judgment, im-pairs vision, and inhibits your ability tosafely operate a boat.

WARNINGAlcohol consumption and boat-ing do not mix! Operating un-der the influence endangers thelives of your passengers and otherboaters. Federal laws prohibit op-erating a boat under the influenceof alcohol or drugs.

Safe OperationFor safety reasons and proper care, al-ways perform PRE-RIDE INSPECTIONas specified in your Operator's Guidebefore operating your boat. Safe op-eration means that you do not mis-use your boat nor do you allow yourpassengers to do so. Safe operationmeans using good judgment at alltimes. It includes, without limitation,the following actions:– Load the boat within the limits listed

on the capacity plate. Balance loadsbow to stern and port to starboard.

– Maintain boat speed at or below thelocal legal limit. Avoid excessivespeed or speeds not appropriate foroperating conditions.

– Do not use the boat in weather orwaterway conditions beyond theskill or experience of the operator orthe capability of the boat and com-fort of passengers.

– Be sure at least one other passen-ger is familiar with the operation andsafety aspects of the boat in case ofan emergency.

– Make sure that passengers and geardo not obstruct the operator's viewor ability to move.

– Do not exceed the maximum enginepower rating stated on the certifica-tion plate attached to the boat.

– Observe all safety signs and warn-ings both inside the boat and in theimmediate boating area.

– While your boat has the capacityof operating at high speeds, it isstrongly recommended that highspeed operation only be appliedwhen ideal conditions exist and arepermitted. Higher speed operationrequires a higher degree of skill andincreases the risk of severe injuries.

– In shallow water, proceed withcaution and at very low speeds.Grounding or abrupt stops may re-sult in injury. Debris may also bepicked up and be thrown rearwardby the jet pump onto people or prop-erty.

– Do not use the boat's reverse tostop. You or your passenger(s)could be violently ejected forwardor even off the boat onto the hazard.

Maneuverability of the Boat andTowing

– Always keep in mind that as thethrottle lever is returned to idle posi-tion, less directional control is avail-able, and when the engine is off,directional control is lost. You needthrottle to steer.


SAFE BOATING PRACTICES

– Do not overload the boat or take onmore passengers than designatedfor the particular boat. Overloadingcan affect maneuverability, stabilityand performance.

– Avoid adding on accessories orequipment which may alter yourcontrol of the boat.

– Riding with a passenger(s) or pullinga tube, skier or wakeboarder makesthe boat handle differently and re-quires greater skill.

– Always respect the safety and com-fort of your passenger(s) and personbeing towed on skis, wakeboard orother towables.

– Always carry an observer whenpulling a tube, skier or wakeboarder,proceed with only as much speed asrequired and follow the observer'sinstructions. Unless absolutely nec-essary, do not make tight, sharpturns. Keep a safe distance fromthe docks, other swimmers, craft orobjects.

– Use a tow rope of sufficient lengthand size and make sure it is ade-quately secured to your boat. Someboats are equipped or can be fittedwith a specially designed towingmechanism. It can become a haz-ard should someone fall on it.

Passenger Safety

Before getting underway, show allpassengers where emergency andsafety equipment is stowed, and ex-plain how to use it. Everyone aboardshould wear rubber-soled shoes whichresist slipping on wet surfaces. Whileunderway, passengers should remainseated inside the deck rails. Don't al-low passengers to drag their feet orhands in the water. Always use hand-holds and other safety hardware toprevent falls. All non-swimmers, poorswimmers, and children should weara PFD at all times. Federal regulationsrequire that children under 13 years of

age wear a PFD when the boat is un-derway unless they are in an enclosedcabin or below deck.– Do not start or operate the boat if

anyone is seated on the sun deck orswim platform, or is nearby in thewater. Water and/or debris exitingjet thrust nozzle can cause severeinjury.

– The operator and passenger(s)should be properly seated beforestarting or moving the boat. All pas-senger(s) should be instructed touse the handholds or seat strapsprovided.

– When accelerating a boat with apassenger(s), whether from a com-plete stop or while underway, al-ways do so progressively. Fast ac-celeration may cause your passen-ger(s) to loose their balance or gripand strike something in the boat orfall out of the boat. Make sure thatyour passenger(s) know of, or antic-ipate, any rapid acceleration.

First AidAs a boat operator, you should be fa-miliar with basic first aid proceduresthat may be needed while you arefar from help. Fish hook accidents orminor cuts and abrasions may be themost serious mishaps on board a boat,but you should also learn the properprocedures and be ready to deal withthe truly serious problems like exces-sive bleeding, hypothermia, and burns.First aid literature and courses are avail-able through most Red Cross chapters.

Operation by Minors

Minors should always be supervisedby an adult whenever operating a boat.Many countries have laws regard-ing the minimum age and licensingrequirements of minors. Be sure tocontact the competent authorities forinformation. BRP recommends a min-imum operator age of 16 years old.


NAVIGATION RULES

Operating RulesOperating a boat can be comparedwith driving unmarked highways androads. To prevent collisions or avoidother boaters, a system of operatingrules must be followed. It's not onlycommon sense... it's the law!Check local and federal boating lawsapplicable to the waterways whereyou intend to use your boat. Learn thelocal rules of the waterways. Knowand understand the applicable naviga-tion system (such as buoys and signs).Know the waters in which the boat isto be operated. Current, tides, rapids,hidden obstacles, wakes and wavesetc. can affect safe operation. It is notadvisable to operate the boat in roughor inclement weather.Generally keep to your right and safelyavoid other craft by keeping a safe dis-tance from other craft, people and ob-jects.The following illustration identifies dif-ferent parts of the boat that are usedas directional reference points, thebow being the front of the boat. Theport side of boat (left side) is visuallyidentifiable by a RED light off the bow,and the starboard side (right side) by aGREEN light.

NAVIGATION RULES

Navigation System

Navigational aids, such as signs orbuoys, can help you identify safe wa-ters. Buoys will indicate whether youshould keep to the right (starboard) orto the left (port) of the buoy or to whichchannel you can continue. They mayalso indicate whether you are enteringa restricted or controlled area such as ano wake or speed zone. They may alsoindicate hazards or pertinent boatinginformation. Markers may be locatedon shore or on the water. They can alsoindicate speed limits, no power craft orboating, anchorage and other usefulinformation. (The shape of each typeof marker will provide assistance.)Make sure you know and understandthe navigation system applicable tothe waterways where you intend touse the boat.

Collision Avoidance

– Do not decrease throttle when try-ing to steer away from objects. Youneed throttle to steer.

– Always keep a constant lookout forother water users, other craft or ob-jects, especially when turning. Bealert for conditions that may limityour visibility or block your vision ofothers.

– Respect the rights of other recre-ationists and/or bystanders and al-ways keep a safe distance from allother craft, people and objects.

– Do not wake or wave jump, ridethe surf line or attempt to spray orsplash others with your boat. Youmay misjudge the ability of the boator your own driving skills and strikea boat or person.

– This boat has the capability of turn-ing more sharply than other boats.However, unless in an emergency,do not negotiate sharp, high speedturns. Such maneuvers make ithard for others to avoid you or under-stand where you are going. Also,you and/or your passenger(s) couldbe ejected from the boat.

– This boat has no brake. Stoppingdistance will vary depending on ini-tial speed, load, wind, and waterconditions. Practice stopping anddocking in a safe, traffic free area tohave an idea of how long it will taketo stop the boat under varying con-ditions.

– Maintaining or increasing speedmay be necessary to avoid a colli-sion.


FUELING

Recommended FuelUse unleaded gasoline or oxygenatedfuel containing a maximum total of10% of ethanol or methanol. The gaso-line used must have the following rec-ommended octane rating.

NOTICE Never experiment withother fuels. The use of inadequatefuel can result in boat performancedeterioration and damage to criticalparts in the fuel system and enginecomponents.

General OperatingRecommendations

Rough Water or Poor VisibilityOperation

Avoid operation in these conditions. Ifyou must do so, proceed with cautionand prudence using minimum speed.Turn on navigation lights if necessary.

Night Operation

Between sunset and sunrise, use thenavigation lights and reduce speed.

WARNINGNavigation lights should alwaysbe used between sunset andsunrise. Ensure the stern lightis installed. See STERN LIGHTSOCKET in this section for loca-tion and installation.

Crossing Waves

Reduce speed when crossing waves.Always be prepared to steer and bal-ance as necessary.When crossing wakes, always keep asafe distance from boat ahead.

WARNINGWhen crossing wakes, slow down.Operator and passenger(s) canbrace themselves by posting. Donot jump waves or wakes.

Stopping/Docking

The boat is slowed by water drag. Thestopping distance will vary dependingon the boat's size, speed, water sur-face condition, presence and directionof wind and current.The operator should become familiarwith the stopping distance under dif-ferent conditions.Reduce throttle speed to idle. Shift toneutral, reverse or forward as requiredwhen approaching a dock then shut offthe engines just before coming along-side.

WARNINGDirectional control is reducedwhen throttle is decreased and lostwhen engines are off.

When close to the dock, shut off theengines.

WARNINGWhile engines can be stopped bypressing the START/STOP but-tons, we strongly recommend theengines be stopped by removingthe tether cord. This will installgood habits.

Beaching

NOTICE It is not recommended torun the boat onto the beach.

Slowly approach the beach and shutoff the engines using the tether cordwhen water depth is 90 cm (3 ft) underthe hull, then pull the boat to the beach.Ensure that all accessories are OFF.

SPECIAL PROCEDURES

Jet Pump Water Intake andImpeller CleaningWater is drawn up by the impellersthrough these openings. The gratesminimize entry of foreign objects intothe propulsion systems.

lmo2008-003-008_a

TYPICAL1. Inlet grate

WARNINGKeep away from intake grateswhile engines are running. Itemssuch as long hair, loose clothingor personal flotation device strapscan become entangled in movingparts resulting in severe injury ordrowning.

Weeds, shells or debris can get caughton the intake grates, drive shaftsand/or impellers. A clogged water in-take may cause troubles such as:1. Cavitation: Engine speed is high

but boat moves slowly due to re-duced jet thrust; jet pump compo-nents may be damaged.

2. Overheating: Since the jet pumpoperation controls the flow of wa-ter to cool the exhaust system, aclogged intake will cause the en-gine to overheat and damage inter-nal engine components.

The clogged area can be cleaned as fol-lows:In-water cleaning: Pull the tethercord from engine cut-off switch to stopengine(s). Let the boat stop by itself.Wait a while to allow weeds or otherdebris to escape from grate(s). It maybe necessary to repeat the procedure.

In severe conditions if the abovemethod does not work, the followingcan be performed:1. With engine(s) running, put shift

lever in reverse position and varythrottle setting quickly severaltimes.

2. Try accelerating again.Most of the time, debris will escapefrom the propulsion system.Out of water cleaning: If the systemis still clogged, shut off the engine(s) byremoving the tether cord.

WARNINGAlways remove the tether cordfrom the engine cut-off switch toprevent accidental engines start-ing before cleaning the jet pumpsarea.

From underneath boat, manually cleanwater intakes area. If the system isstill clogged, refer to an authorizedSea-Doo Boats dealer for servicing.

NOTICE Avoid operation inweeded areas. If unavoidable, varyspeed. Weeds tend to entanglemore at steady and slow speeds.Inspect water intake grates for dam-age. Refer to an authorized Sea-DooBoats dealer for repair as necessary.

Towing the Boat in WaterSpecial precautions should be takenwhen towing a Sea-Doo Boat in water.Maximum recommended towingspeed is 24 km/h (15 MPH).Install the hose pinchers on the ex-haust manifold water outlet hoses asshown for each engine.

_______________ 77

SPECIAL PROCEDURES

smo2008-001-072_a

TYPICAL1. Install hose pincher here

NOTICE When finished towingthe boat, hose pinchers must be re-moved before operation. Failureto do so will result in engines dam-ages.

When towing your boat in water, pinchthe exhaust manifold water outlethose on each engine with a LARGEHOSE PINCHER (P/N 529 032 500).

5290325002

This will prevent the exhaust systemsfrom filling which may lead to waterbeing injected into the engines. With-out the engines running there isn't anyexhaust pressure to carry the waterout the exhaust outlet.

NOTICE Failure to do this may re-sult in damage to the engines. Ifyour Sea-Doo Boats must be towedin water and you do not have hosepinchers, be sure to stay well be-low the maximum towing speed of24 km/h (15 MPH).

Capsized BoatThis boat is designed so that it shouldnot turn over easily due to its long andwide dimensions. If the boat ever cap-sizes, remember that it will continue tofloat. It is usually best to remain withit so you will be more easily located byothers.

WARNINGWhen boat is capsized, do not at-tempt to restart the engines. Op-erator and passengers shouldalways wear approved personalflotation devices.

Submerged Boat andWater-Flooded EngineTo limit damages to the engines, per-form the following procedure as soonas possible.1. Drain bilge.2. If it was submerged in salt water,

spray bilge and all components withfresh water using a garden hose tostop the salt corrosive effect.

NOTICE Never try to crank or startthe engines. Water trapped in intakemanifolds would flow towards theengines and may cause severe dam-age to the engines.

3. Bring the boat to be serviced by anauthorized Sea-Doo Boats dealer assoon as possible.

NOTICE The longer the delay be-fore you have the engine serviced,the greater the damage will be to theengines. Failure to have the enginesproperly serviced will cause severeengine damage.

Sacrificial Anodes

Sacrificial Anodes Inspection

Corrosion of metal parts, especiallythose exposed to saltwater, is com-mon for boats. Corrosion can becaused by stray electric currents fromshore power installations, improperlygrounded AC lines and circuits, andpoorly insulated DC powered equip-ment from boats moored nearby. Cor-rosion is accelerated when electriccurrent is present.Sacrificial anodes are attached to cer-tain parts of this boat to reduce corro-sion. The anode corrodes, rather thanthe part to which the anode is attached.Change each anode when 50% of itsweight has corroded away.Anodes are attached at the followinglocations:– Ride shoe(s)/cooling plate(s)– Pump housing(s)– Reverse gate support(s)– Steering nozzle(s)– Reverse gate(s).

Maintenance, replacement, or repair ofthe emission control devices and sys-tems may be performed by any marineSI (Spark Ignition) engine repair estab-lishment or individual.

Manufacturer'sResponsibilityBeginning with 1999 model year en-gines, manufacturers of marine en-gines must determine the exhaustemission levels for each engine horse-power family and certify these engineswith the United States of America En-vironmental Protection Agency (EPA).An emissions control information la-bel, showing emission levels and en-gine specifications, must be placed oneach boat at the time of manufacture.

Dealer's ResponsibilityWhen performing service on all 1999and more recent Sea-Doo Boats carry-ing an emissions control informationlabel, adjustments must be kept withinpublished factory specifications.Replacement or repair of any emissionrelated component must be executedin a manner that maintains emissionlevels within the prescribed certifica-tion standards.Dealers are not to modify the engine inany manner that would alter the horse-power or allow emission levels to ex-ceed their predetermined factory spec-ifications.Exceptions include manufacturer'sprescribed changes, such as altitudeadjustments for example.

Owner ResponsibilityThe owner/operator is required to haveengine maintenance performed tomaintain emission levels within pre-scribed certification standards.The owner/operator is not to, andshould not allow anyone to modify anyengine in a manner that would alter the

horsepower or allow emission levelsto exceed predetermined factory spec-ifications.

EPA Emission RegulationsAll new 1999 and more recent Sea-DooBoats manufactured by BRP are certi-fied to the EPA as conforming to therequirements of the regulations for thecontrol of air pollution from new boatengines. This certification is contin-gent on certain adjustments being setto factory standards. For this reason,the factory procedure for servicing theproduct must be strictly followed and,whenever practicable, returned to theoriginal intent of the design.The responsibilities listed above aregeneral and in no way a complete list-ing of the rules and regulations per-taining to the EPA requirements on ex-haust emissions for marine products.For more detailed information on thissubject, you may contact the followinglocations:

MONITORING SYSTEM

A system monitors the electronic components of the EMS (engine managementsystem) and other components of the electrical system. When a fault occurs,it sends visual messages through the information center and/or audible signalsthrough a beeper to inform you of a particular condition.A fault code may also be recorded.When a minor or transient fault occurs, the fault message and beeper will cease au-tomatically if the condition that caused the fault does not exist anymore.Releasing the throttle and letting the engine return to idle speed may allow normaloperation to come back. If this does not work, try removing and reinstalling thetether cord on its post.The electronic system will react differently depending on the fault type. In severefailure, the engine may not be allowed to be started. In other cases, the engine willoperate in limp home mode (reduced speed).When a fault occurs, see an authorized Sea-Doo Boats dealer as soon as possiblefor inspection.
