BEFORE YOU GO
WARNING
Diisregarding any of the safety precautions and iinstructiions included in
this sectiion could cause injury iincludiing the possibillity of death. Any po-
tential operator shoulld read and understand thiis guide before operatiing
the watercraft.
Operating Age and Ability
Operators must be qualified. Make sure the operator is 16 or older and has taken
a boater safety course. Your state (or province) may have additional require-
ments. Laws regarding the minimum age and licensing requirements vary from
one jurisdiction to another. Be sure to contact the local boating authorities for in-
formation regarding the legal operation of a watercraft in the intended jurisdiction
of use.
Operation of this watercraft with a disability that impairs vision, reaction time,
judgment, or operation of the controls is not recommended.
Remember that sun, wind, fatigue or illness may impair your judgment and reac-
tion time.
Each passenger must be able to simultaneously place both feet firmly flat against
each footwell when properly seated.
Drugs and Alcohol
Never ride after consuming alcohol or drugs. Riding on a watercraft requires the
operator and passenger(s) to be sober, attentive and alert. The use of drugs and
alcohol, singly or in combination, decreases reaction time, impedes judgment,
impairs vision, and inhibits your ability to safely ride on a watercraft.
Safe Boating Courses
Many countries recommend or require a boating safety course. Check with your
local competent authorities.
Applicable Boating Laws
Check boating laws applicable to the waterways where you intend to use your
watercraft. Learn the local navigation rules.
Protective Gear
All riders MUST wear:
1. An approved Personall Fllotation Deviice (PFD) meeting your country regu-
lations. The size of the PFD shall be appropriate for the wearer.
2. Shorts wiith neoprene (wetsuit material) to keep water from being forcefully
injected into rectum or vagina during a fall backward. Riders not wearing neo-
prene shorts have received severe rectal, vaginal, and internal injuries result-
ing in permanent damage. Normal swimwear does not adequately protect
against forceful entry of water into the lower male or female body opening(s).
Footwear, gloves, safety goggles or glasses can be worn. Wind, water spray,
bugs and speed may cause a person’s eyes to water and create blurred vision.
14
BEFORE YOU GO
If you are planning a ride in cold weather or water, consider adding appropriate
warm clothing such as a complete wet suit or dry suit. Not only will it make your
ride more comfortable, but it may delay or protect you from hypothermia if you fall
into cold water. Be prepared for changing conditions.
Helmets: Weighing the Risks vs Benefits
Since each option minimizes some risks, but increases others, before each ride
you must decide whether to wear or not wear a helmet based on your particular
situation. If you decide to wear a helmet, look for helmets that meet DOT or Snell
standards, and if possible, choose one designed for motorized watersports.
Helmets are designed to offer some degree of protection in case of impacts to
the head. In most motorized sports, the benefits of wearing a helmet clearly out-
weigh the drawbacks. However, in the case of motorized watersports such as rid-
ing personal watercraft, this is not necessarily true as there are some particular
risks associated with the water.
Benefiits
A helmet helps to reduce the risk of injury in case of a head impact against a hard
surface such as another craft in the case of a collision. Similarly, a helmet with a
chin guard might help prevent injuries to the face, jaw or teeth.
Riisks
On the other hand, in some situations when falling off the watercraft, helmets
have a tendency to catch the water, like a “bucket”, and put severe stresses on
the neck or spine. This could result in choking, severe or permanent neck or
spine injury or death. Helmets may also interfere with peripheral vision and hear-
ing, or increase fatigue which could contribute to increase the risk of a collision.
Required Equipment
As the owner of the watercraft, you are responsible for ensuring that all required
safety equipment is aboard. Check your local regulations about requirements.
This could include:
15
BEFORE YOU GO
- Fire extinguisher. Maintenance, repair and refilling must be carried out in ac-
cordance with the manufacturer’s instructions.
- A watertight flashlight or approved flares
- Sound-producing device (horn, whistle or bell etc.)
- Visual Distress Signal
- Phone in a watertight compartment designed for this application
- Current local map
- First aid kit
- Throw rope.
16
GET FAMILIAR WITH THE WATERCRAFT
The performance of this watercraft may exceed the performance of other water-
crafts you may have operated. Do not assume that all watercrafts handle
identically.
Make sure you read and understand the content of this operator’s guide to be-
come completely familiar with the controls and operation of the watercraft before
embarking on your first trip, or taking on a passenger(s). If you have not had the
opportunity to do so, practice in a suitable traffic-free area to become accus-
tomed to the feel and response of each control. Be fully familiar with all controls
before accelerating above idle speed.
Jet Thrust
Your watercraft features a jet drive propulsion system. The water is drawn up
from underneath the watercraft from the intake grate and is accelerated by the
venturi to produce thrust. This accelerated water is going out at the rear of the
craft.
All riders must wear shorts with neoprene (wetsuit material) to keep water from
being forcefully injected into rectum or vagina during a fall backward. Riders not
wearing neoprene shorts have received severe rectal, vaginal, and internal inju-
ries resulting in permanent damage. Normal swimwear does not adequately pro-
tect against forceful entry of water into the lower male or female body opening(s).
The jet pump may pick up debris and throw it rearward causing a risk of injuring
people, damaging the jet pump, or other property.
Do not start the engine or operate the watercraft if anyone is in the water nearby,
or near the rear of the watercraft.
Steering
Your watercraft has a steerable nozzle at the rear of the boat controlled by the
handlebars which direct the stream of water from left to right. To turn the water-
craft, both steering and power are necessary.
Do not release the throttle when trying to steer away from objects — as with other
powerboats, you need power to steer.
If the engine is shut off, steering is lost.
Tether Cord (Safety Lanyard)
Keep the tether cord clip attached to the operator’s PFD or wrist (wrist strap re-
quired) at all times and keep it free from snagging on the handlebars to help en-
sure the engine stops should the operator fall off.
If the operator falls off the watercraft and the tether cord is not attached as rec-
ommended, the engine will not stop and the watercraft will keep running without
a driver. The operator may not be able to swim back to it.
After riding, always remove the tether cord from the engine cut-off switch to avoid
unauthorized use by children or others and to prevent starting in a closed envi-
ronment (e.g.: garage).
17
GET FAMILIAR WITH THE WATERCRAFT
To prevent accidental starting, always detach the tether cord from the engine
cut-off switch when swimmers are boarding, nearby, or during removal of any
weeds or debris from the intake grate.
Braking
Most watercrafts have no means of braking.
On some models, advancement in technologies now permits us to offer a braking
system called the iBR (intelligent Brake and Reverse). Practice braking maneu-
vers in a safe traffic-free area to become familiar with handling under braking and
with stopping distances under various operating conditions.
Stopping distance will vary depending on initial speed, load, wind, number of
riders and water conditions. The amount of braking power commanded by the
operator using the iBR lever will also affect stopping distance.
When braking, riders must brace themselves against the deceleration force to
prevent from moving forward on the watercraft and losing balance.
When operating an iBR equipped watercraft, be aware that other boats following
or operating in close proximity may not be able to stop as quickly. Inform the op-
erator of a watercraft who intends to follow you in a convoy formation of the brak-
ing capability of your watercraft and the need of keeping a greater distance
between watercraft.
The brake feature of the iBR system cannot prevent your watercraft from drifting
due to current or wind. It has no braking effect on the rearward velocity. Also note
that your engine must be running to be able to use the brake.
Learning Key (available as accessory)
The Sea-Doo LK™ learning key limits the speed of the watercraft. It could be an
option for first time users and less experienced operators to learn how to operate
the watercraft.
Visit your BRP authorized Sea-Doo dealer to see if this accessory is available for
your model.
Cargo and Storage
Do not store any objects in areas that are not designed specifically for storage.
Do not transport cargo on the rear platform unless it is properly secured with a
BRP LinQ™ certified accessory. Compatible accessories which are not BRP cer-
tified may not be considered as fit for this purpose.
When carrying loads on the rear platform or onto cargo accessories, reduce your
speed and adapt your driving behavior to reduce the risk of ejection from the
watercraft or contact with cargo possibly leading to injuries.
Do not exceed the payload or passenger capacities for your watercraft. Over-
loading can affect manoeuvrability, stability and performance. Also, heavy seas
reduce capacity.
18
GET FAMILIAR WITH THE WATERCRAFT
Never carry loads on the rear platform when practicing watersports. The cargo
may interfere with the rope and get unlatched, becoming an obstacle to the per-
son being towed.
Refer to Technical Specifications for the maximum loading capacity.
Accessories and Modifications
Any modifications or addition of accessories approved by BRP may affect the
handling of your vehicle. It is important to take the time to get familiar with the ve-
hicle once modifications are made to understand how to adapt your driving be-
havior accordingly.
Avoid installing equipment not specifically approved by BRP for the vehicle and
avoid unauthorized modifications. These modifications and equipment have not
been tested by BRP and may create hazards. For example, they could:
- Create a loss of control and increase risk of crash
- Cause overheating or short circuits increasing the risk of fire or burn injuries
- Affect the protection features provided by the vehicle.
Your vehicle may also become illegal to ride.
As an example, installing an additional GPS or cell phone support may prevent
the driving capabilities of the vehicle and increase the risk of a loss of control.
Ask your authoriized BRP dealler for suiitablle avaiilablle accessoriies for your
vehiiclle.
19
RIDE SAFELY
Riding with Passenger(s)
The operator is responsible to inform and protect the passenger(s) invited to ride.
Instruct all passenger (s) to use the handholds, seat strap, or to hold on to the
waist of the person in front of them. Each passenger must be able to simultane-
ously place both feet firmly flat against each footwell when properly seated.
Be sure riders are properly seated and holding on. Riders can be thrown off
watercraft during unexpected acceleration or aggressive operation. Avoid ag-
gressive operation, sharp turns, and unexpected acceleration.
Falls can result in severe injury or death.
All riders must wear shorts with neoprene (wet suit material) to keep water from
being forcefully injected into rectum or vagina during a fall backward. Riders not
wearing neoprene shorts have received severe rectal, vaginal, and internal inju-
ries resulting in permanent damage.
When going over waves, riders(s) may raise their body slightly off the seat to ab-
sorb the shocks with their legs.
When braking or decelerating, riders must brace themselves against the deceler-
ation force to prevent from moving forward on the watercraft and losing balance.
Riding with passenger (s) makes the watercraft handle differently and requires
greater skill.
Avoiding Collisions
Scan your surroundings constantly for people, objects and other watercraft.
Stay far enough away from others so you can always safely coast to a stop. Do
not release throttle when trying to steer away from objects - as with other power-
boats, you need throttle to steer.
Be alert for conditions that may limit your visibility or block your vision of others.
Do not go near others to spray or splash them with water, go too close to other
boats, or go too fast for traffic conditions. You may misjudge the ability of the
watercraft or your own riding skills and strike a boat or person.
If your watercraft is equipped with a braking system, be aware that other boats
following or operating in close proximity may not be able to stop as quickly.
Stopping distance will vary depending on initial speed, load, wind and water con-
ditions. The amount of braking power commanded by the operator using the iBR
lever will also affect stopping distance.
Although the preferable manoeuvre to avoid an obstacle is to steer away while
applying throttle, the iBR can also be used by fully braking and turning in the di-
rection to avoid the obstacle.
Riding Behaviors
Ride within your limits and level of riding ability.
20
RIDE SAFELY
Scan constantly for people, objects and other watercraft. Stay far enough away
from others so you can always safely coast to a stop.
Avoid aggressive operation, sharp turns, and unexpected acceleration that can
cause riders to be thrown off.
Avoid riding in very rough waters or practicing extreme manoeuvres like jumping
wakes or waves - jumping can cause injuries such as back or spinal injuries
(paralysis).
Speeding
While your watercraft has the capacity of operating at high speeds, it is strongly
recommended that high-speed operation only be applied when ideal conditions
exist and are permitted. Higher speed operation requires a higher degree of skill
and increases the risk of severe injuries.
The forces generated on the body of riders while turning, negotiating waves or
wakes, operating in choppy waters, or falling off the watercraft, especially at high-
er speeds, may cause injury including the possibility of broken bones or more
serious bodily injuries.
Reboarding
Operator and passenger (s) need to know how to swim and how to reboard the
watercraft from the water. Boarding in deep water can be strenuous.
Also, make sure you and all passengers know how to reboard when accessories
are installed at the rear. Board the watercraft from the rear and carefully get
around the accessories. If you have difficulties, you should know how to remove
the accessories and move them towards the front to provide better access to the
boarding platform.
If the accessories are too heavy, swim toward the side, use passenger handhold
and/or seat strap to lift yourself aboard.
Ask inexperienced riders to practice how to board the watercraft close to shore
(all methods explained here) before venturing into deep water, especially when
cargo is installed aboard on the rear platform.
To prevent accidental starting, always detach the tether cord from the engine
cut-off switch when passenger(s) swimmers are boarding.
Moving Parts
Never turn handlebar while someone is near the rear of watercraft. Keep away
from steering moving parts (nozzle, iBR gate, linkages, etc.).
Keep away from the intake grate while the engine is running. Items such as long
hair, loose clothing, or PFD straps can become entangled in moving parts.
Be aware of the iBR gate movement when starting the engine, shutting down the
engine or using the iBR lever. Automatic movement of the gate may squeeze fin-
gers or toes of people taking a hold on the back or your watercraft.
21
RIDE SAFELY
Know the Waters
Know the waters in which the watercraft is to be operated.
Plan your route and avoid shallow waters or hidden rocks, rapids, as well as oth-
er possible risks. When leaving dock always inform someone you trust on land of
your planned route, and estimated time of arrival. They can then contact rescue if
you are late and did not reach them.
Current, tides, rapids, hidden obstacles, wakes and waves, etc., can affect safe
operation. It is not advisable to operate the watercraft in rough waters or inclem-
ent weather. Keep an eye on the weather. Check local weather broadcasts be-
fore departure. Be alert to changing conditions.
Keep accurate and up-to-date charts of the boating area on board. Before getting
underway, check water conditions in the planned boating area.
Ensure there is enough fuel on board for the planned trip. Always verify fuel level
before use and during the ride. Apply the principle of 1/3 of the fuel to reach your
destination, 1/3 to return, and keep 1/3 in reserve. Allow for changes due to ad-
verse weather or other delays.
In shallow water, proceed with caution and at very low speeds. Grounding or
abrupt stops may result in injury and watercraft damage. Always be alert for de-
bris and objects in the water. They could be picked up and thrown rearward by
the jet pump onto people.
Navigation Rules
Always ride responsibly and safely. Use common sense and courtesy.
Operating a watercraft can be compared with driving on unmarked highways and
roads. To prevent collisions or avoid other boaters, a system of operating rules
must be followed. Generally keep to your right and safely avoid collisions by
keeping a safe distance from other watercrafts, boats, people and objects.
Make sure you know and understand the navigation system applicable to the
waterways where you intend to use the watercraft.
Navigational aids on shore or on waters, such as signs or buoys, can assist you
in identifying safe waters. They can indicate:
- whether you should keep to the right (starboard) or to the left (port) of the
buoy
- which channel you can continue
- whether you are entering a restricted or controlled area such as a no wake or
low speed zone
- hazards
- speed limits, no power craft or boating, anchorage and other useful
information.
Respect no wake zones, the environment, and the rights of other users of the
waterways.
Night-Time Operation
This watercraft is not designed for night-time operation.
22
RIDE SAFELY
Carbon Monoxide (CO) Poisoning
All engine exhaust contains carbon monoxide (CO), a deadly gas. Breathing CO
can cause headaches, dizziness, drowsiness, nausea, confusion and eventually
death.
Carbon monoxide is a colorless, odorless, tasteless gas that may be present
even if you do not see or smell any engine exhaust. Deadly levels of CO can col-
lect rapidly, and you can quickly be overcome and unable to save yourself. Also,
deadly levels of CO can linger for hours or days in enclosed or poorly ventilated
areas. If you experience any symptoms of CO poisoning, leave the area immedi-
ately, get fresh air and seek medical treatment.
To prevent serious injury or death from CO:
- Never run the watercraft in poorly ventilated or partially enclosed areas such
as boat houses, garage, seawalls or other watercrafts in close proximity.
Even if you try to ventilate engine exhaust, CO can rapidly reach dangerous
levels.
- Never run the watercraft outdoors where engine exhaust can be drawn into a
building through openings such as windows and doors.
- Never stand behind the watercraft while the engine is running. A person
standing behind a running engine may inhale high concentrations of exhaust
fumes.
After riding, always remove the tether cord from the engine cut-off switch to avoid
unauthorized use by children or others and to prevent starting in a closed envi-
ronment (ex: garage).
Gasoline Fires and Other Hazards
Gasoline is extremely flammable and highly explosive. Fuel vapors can spread
and be ignited by a spark or flame many feet away from the engine. To reduce
the risk of fire or explosion, follow these instructions:
- Use only an approved red gasoline container to store fuel.
- Strictly adhere to the instructions in Fueling section.
- Never start watercraft if gasoline or gasoline vapor odors is present in the en-
gine compartment.
- Never start or operate the engine if the fuel cap is not properly secured.
- Do not carry gasoline containers in ANY of the storage compartments.
- Use only a BRP approved LinQ fuel caddy, which shall be properly installed
and secured.
- Never refill the fuel caddy on the watercraft, refill on the dock or shore.
- Never tow a skier or a wakeboarder while having a fuel caddy installed on the
swim platform.
Gasoline is poisonous and can cause injury or death.
- Never siphon gasoline with your mouth.
- If you swallow gasoline, get any in your eyes, or inhale gasoline vapors, see a
doctor immediately.
If gasoline is spilled on you, wash thoroughly with soap and water and change
your clothes.
23
RIDE SAFELY
Burns From Hot Parts
Certain components may become hot during operation. Avoid contact during and
shortly after operation to avoid burns.
Watersports (Towing with the Watercraft)
Models with a Seatiing Capaciity of 3 or More Only
Attachment and Towing Deviices
Certain watercraft models come equipped with tow eyelets or a ski pylon.
Use the ski pylon, if equipped, to attach a tow rope for a skier or wake boarder.
Use the rear tow eyelet to attach a tow rope for a tube.
Do not use these attachment points or any other portion of the watercraft to tow a
parasail, kites, gliders or any devices which can become airborne or for pulling
any other craft. Personal injury or severe damage may occur.
Never carry loads on the rear platform when practicing watersports. The cargo
may interfere with the rope and unsecure it, becoming an obstacle to the person
being towed.
Watercraft Capacity When Towing
Always carry an observer to observe the person being towed and inform the op-
erator about the participant’s hand signals. The operator must focus his attention
on operating the watercraft and the waters ahead.
You need to have seats for everyone: operator, observer, towed person. There-
fore, if you are the only vessel, your watercraft must have a seating capacity of 3
or more and you can tow only one person.
Towing and Observiing
If you have never towed someone behind your watercraft before, it is a good idea
to spend some hours as an observer, working with and learning from an experi-
enced operator. It is also important to be aware of the skill and experience of the
person being towed.
Pulling a tube, skier or wakeboarder makes the watercraft handle differently and
requires greater skill.
Always respect the safety and comfort of the person being towed.
Proceed with only as much speed as required and follow the observers’
instructions.
Never make sharp turns while towing skier or rider(s). Sharp turns may result in
sudden acceleration or the skier's/ rider's speed. Do not use the braking system
unless absolutely necessary. Remember that although this watercraft is manoeu-
vrable and has stopping capabilities, the person in tow may not be able to avoid
an obstacle, or your watercraft.
The driver, the observer and the person being towed, skier or rider (s), need to
learn the hand signals before departure.
24
RIDE SAFELY
Participate in watersports only in safe areas. Stay away from other watercrafts,
channels, beaches, restricted areas, swimmers, and heavily travelled waterways
and underwater obstructions.

Falllen Skiier or Riider
Any fall may result in injury: Give immediate attention to a person who has fallen.
He or she is vulnerable in the water alone and may not be seen by other boaters.
Always keep the fallen skier or rider in view and on the driver's side of the water-
craft. Circle fallen skier or rider slowly to return the tow rope handle or pick up the
fallen skier/ rider. Always turn engine OFF when a skier/ rider is getting into or
out of the watercraft or is near the watercraft.
Tow Rope
Never wrap the tow rope around your wrist, hand, or any body part. The rope
may suddenly lose its slack and cause serious injuries, such as amputation.
Both the operator and observer shall monitor the location of the tow rope when
participating in water sports. A slack tow rope can become entangled with a per-
son (s) or objects on the watercraft or in the water, particularly when making a
tight turn or circling, and cause serious personal injury.
Do not pull the tow rope in front of other boats and be careful not to run over the
rope with the watercraft because it could get trapped in the jet pump.
Do not tow a person in any water sport on a short tow rope such that the person
inhales exhaust fumes in concentration. Inhalation of concentrated exhaust
fumes, which contain carbon monoxide, can result in CO poisoning, personal in-
jury and death.
25
RIDE SAFELY
Always use a tow rope of proper tensile strength and of sufficient length. Inspect
the rope and connectors before each use. Do not use if damaged. Make sure that
the tow rope is adequately secured to your watercraft.
Always disconnect and safely stow the tow rope in the watercraft when not in
use. While some watercraft are equipped or can be fitted with a specially de-
signed towing mechanism, avoid installing a tow pole on a watercraft. It can be-
come a hazard should someone fall on it.
26
PRACTICE EXERCISES
It is always a good idea to practice and get familiar with all controls, functions
and handling characteristics of your watercraft before venturing on the water.
Where to Practice Exercises
Find a suitable area to practice the exercises. Ensure that the area meets the fol-
lowing requirements:
- No traffic
- No obstacles
- No swimmers
- No current
- Ample space to maneuver
- Adequate water depth
Practice Exercises
Practice the following exercises.
Turning
Practice turning in circles in both directions at slow speed.
When comfortable with the exercise, increase difficulty by making some figure 8.
When this is mastered, repeat the above exercises but at increased speed.
Stoppiing Distances
Practice stopping the watercraft in a straight line at various speeds and braking
force. Remember that watercraft speed, load, water conditions, current and wind
also affect stopping distances.
Practice releasing the throttle while going at speed and feel the deceleration rate
with different speed.
Repeat exercise, but this time while applying iBR lever (if equipped). Note that
the iBR system takes control of the throttle.
Steeriing and Avoidiing an Obstaclle
Practice obstacle avoidance (choose a virtual point on the water) by steering
watercraft and maintaining throttle.
Repeat exercise, but this time release throttle while turning.
Repeat exercise, but this time while applying iBR lever (If equipped). Note that
the iBR system takes control of the throttle.
NOTE:
With this exercise, you will learn that you need throttle to steer the watercraft in a
different direction.
Reverse
Practice reverse operation to learn how the watercraft operates in reverse and
reacts with steering inputs.
27
PRACTICE EXERCISES
NOTE:
Remember that steering direction is reversed when backing.
Docking
Practice docking using the throttle, the steering and the iBR (if equipped) to be-
come familiar with the response of the watercraft and to develop good control
skills.
28
FUELING
Fueling Procedure
WARNING
Gasolline is extremely flammablle and highly expllosiive under certain con-
ditiions. Folllow the instructions iin this section expliiciitly. Improper handlling
of fuel could resullt in property damage, seriious injjury or death. Leaking
fuell is a fire and explosion hazard. Inspect system for lleaks frequentlly.
Fuel is flammable and explosive under certain conditions. Do not smoke or allow
open flames or sparks in the vicinity.

2. Have the operator and passenger(s) get out of watercraft.
3. If on the water, moor the watercraft securely to the dock.
4. Unscrew slowly the fuel cap counterclockwise to stabilize pressure before re-
moving it.
NOTE:
A short whistling sound is normal.
5. Insert the spout into the filler neck.
NOTE:
Be certain that you are putting fuel in the right location and not using a ventilation
hole or ski pylon hole by mistake.
6. Pour fuel slowly so the air can escape from the tank and prevent fuel flow
back. Be careful not to spill fuel.
7. Stop filling after the release of the gas pump nozzle handle and wait a mo-
ment before removing the spout. Do not retract the gas pump nozzle to put
more fuel into the fuel tank. Do not overfill.
8. Install fuel tank cap and tighten it clockwise until you hear a ratchet sound.
9. Always wipe off any fuel spillage from the watercraft.
10. After refueling, always open or remove the seat or the lateral panel (depend-
ing on models) and ensure there is no gasoline odor inside the engine com-
partment. Do not start watercraft if you smell gasoline odor.
Fuel Requirements
NOTICE
Allways use fresh gasolline.
Gasoline will oxidize; the result is loss of octane, volatile compounds, and the
production of gum and varnish deposits which can damage the fuel system.
Alcohol fuel blending varies by country and region. Your vehicle has been de-
signed to operate using the recommended fuels, however, be aware of the
following:
29
FUELING
- Use of fuel containing alcohol above the percentage specified by government
regulations is not recommended and can result in the following problems in
the fuel system components:
- Starting and operating difficulties.
- Deterioration of rubber or plastic parts.
- Corrosion of metal parts.
- Damage to internal engine parts.
- Inspect frequently for the presence of fuel leaks or other fuel system abnor-
malities if you suspect the presence of alcohol in gasoline exceeds the cur-
rent government regulations.
- Alcohol blended fuels attract and hold moisture which may lead to fuel phase
separation and can result in engine performance problems or engine
damage.
Recommended Fuel
The gasoline must have the following minimum octane requirements:
Engiine
Recommended Fuel
Use Premium gasoline with an AKI
300
(RON+MON)/2 octane rating of 92 or an RON
octane rating of 95.

Check the items listed in the following table after launching the watercraft and be-
fore going for a ride.
WARNING
Engiine should be off and the tether cord cap should always be removed
from the engine cut-off switch prior to verifying any of the folllowiing points.
Onlly start watercraft once alll iitems have been checked and operate , or if
required to perform a specifiic procedure.
NOTE: Before starting the engine and taking off, it is recommended to shake
vertically the rear of the watercraft to shake away any sand that may have accu-
mulated near the propulsion and reverse systems.
Check the items listed in the following table before launching the watercraft.

WARNING
Allways ensure proper iBR system operatiion before taking the watercraft
out for a ride.
Variable Trim System (VTS) (if equiipped)
With the engine running in forward thrust, use the VTS to move the jet pump noz-
zle up, and then down alternately to check VTS operation. Confirm the VTS posi-
tion indicator movement in the information center.
Also test the VTS preset trim positions by double clicking the VTS UP/DOWN
button (as applicable to model).

What to Do After Leaving the Water
Aquatic Invasive Species (AIS) are non-native plant or animal species that threat-
en the diversity or abundance of the native species. They also threaten the natu-
ral ecology of the body of water they infest. AIS almost always has a negative
impact on the waterway, it’s native species, and recreational or commercial
activities.
Common examples of AIS are:
- Eurasian Watermilfoil
- Hydrilla
- Sea Lampreys
- Zebra Mussels
- Asian Carp
- Gobies.
Many other examples of AIS exist throughout the world’s waterways.
A typical factor in AIS infestations is that the non-native species are introduced
by human activity. Some AIS are introduced by commercial operations; however,
AIS can be introduced through recreational boating activities. The transportation
of recreational watercraft and water sports equipment between waterways can
be a major factor in the spread of AIS.
As responsible watercraft owners, we MUST do our part to prevent the spread of
these aquatic hitchhikers. Check your watercraft each time you leave the water!
In many cases it is required by law, be sure to check the local regulations for the
waterways you visit.
Clean, Drain and Dry - Everything, Every Time!
After each boating trip, before you leave the water access, follow these three
simple steps to stop the spread of AIS. This is the boater’s way to help protect
the environment from the damage that AIS can cause.
Clean
65
PRE-RIDE INSPECTION
Inspect and remove any visible plants, fish, animals, mud, or other debris from
the watercraft (including hull, intake grate, and jet pump nozzle), trailer, and any
water sports equipment, gears and accessories before leaving the water body.
Clean all parts, equipment, and gear that came in contact with the water.
Drain
Drain and flush all water from the watercraft, exhaust system, bilge, pontoon
floats, and every conceivable space or item that can hold water.
Dispose of unwanted live bait in the trash.
Dry
Allow everything to dry completely (for 5 days or more, refer to local laws) before
visiting any other bodies of water.
66
ANNUAL SAFETY MAINTENANCE
BRP recommend to have an annual safety inspection of your vehicle. Contact an
authorized Sea-doo dealer for further details.
Though not required, it is recommended that an authorized BRP dealer performs
the preseason preparation of your vehicle.
Each visit to your authorized Sea-Doo dealer is a great opportunity for your deal-
er to verify if your vehicle is included in any safety campaign. We also urge you
to visit your authorized Sea-Doo dealer in a timely manner if you become aware
of any safety related campaigns.

When not in use, the anchor must al-
ways be contained in its dedicated

The rope length ratio (Scope) is very
important for appropriate anchoring.
It is calculated as follows: Scope
=
Rope length / Water depth (including
height of freeboard).
The ratio should be at least 5 and
ideally targeted between 7 to 10. It will
depend on the type of bottom (mud,
sand, rocks), the wind, the tide, the
current and the severity of the
conditions.
In order the maximise chance of the
anchor to hook, the length of rope to
use should be 7- 10 times the water
depth. Your PWC is equiped with

should not exceed 1/2 to 3/4 opening.
However, brief full acceleration and
speed variations contribute to a good
break-in.
NOTICE
Contiinued wide open throttle ac-
celerations or operatiion, pro-
l
longed cruising speeds are
detrimental during the break-iin
periiod.
NOTE:
During the first 3 hours of operation,
the engine management limits the en-
gine maximum speed for engine pro-
tection. The engine performance will
progressively increase during this
period.
