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 should be able to use the handhold under the seat when prop-

erly seated. They should also be instructed to grab the handrail if needed.

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

Watercraft occupants (except children below 12 years old) should wear a prop-

erly fitted Personal Flotation Device (PFD) meeting local regulations especially

when boating conditions are hazardous.

If not required by law, and when the water conditions are good, occupants (ex-

cept children below 12 years old) may decide not to wear it, but they MUST have

quick access to their approved PFD

All children below 12 years old MUST wear a properly fitted Personal Flotation

Device (PFD) meeting local regulations at all times.

SAFETY INFORMATION

BEFORE YOU GO

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.

If you are planning a ride in cold weather or water, consider adding appropriate

warm clothing. 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 chang-

ing conditions.

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:

- Fire extinguisher. Maintenance, repair and refilling must be carried out in ac-

cordance with the manufacturer’s instructions.

- 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

- Paddle.

SAFETY INFORMATION

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.

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 throttle are necessary.

Do not release throttle when trying to steer away from objects — as with other

powerboats, you need throttle 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).

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.

SAFETY INFORMATION

GET FAMILIAR WITH THE WATERCRAFT

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 (if Equipped)

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.

When carrying loads, make sure to distribute the cargo in the watercraft and se-

cure the items properly.

Do not transport cargo on the swim platform, if equipped, unless it is properly se-

cured with a BRP LinQ™ certified accessory. Compatible accessories which are

not BRP certified may not be considered as fit for this purpose.

When carrying loads on the swim platform, if equipped, it can make the water-

craft more difficult to get on plane. Don’t ride in the transition zone where the

watercraft is dragging water. Redistribute the cargo in the watercraft and make

sure to secure the items properly.

Do not exceed the payload or passenger capacities for your watercraft. Over-

loading can affect manoeuvrability, stability and performance. Also, heavy seas

reduce capacity.

Never carry loads on the swim platform when practicing watersports. The cargo

may interfere with the rope and unsecure it, becoming an obstacle to the person

being towed.

Refer to Technical Specifications for the maximum loading capacity.

SAFETY INFORMATION

GET FAMILIAR WITH THE WATERCRAFT

Accessories and Modifications

Any modifications or addition of accessories approved by BRP may affect the

handling of your watercraft. It is important to take the time to get familiar with the

watercraft once modifications are made to understand how to adapt your driving

behavior 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

- Affect the protection features provided by the watercraft

- Affect the behavior of the trailer when the watercraft is transported

- Cause a risk of losing objects on the road when transported.

Your vehicle may also become illegal to ride.

Make sure the maximum load allowed on the watercraft is not exceeded when

adding accessories.

Ask your authorized BRP dealer for suitable availlable accessories for your

vehiicle.

SAFETY INFORMATION

RIDE SAFELY

Riding with Passenger(s)

The operator is responsible for the safety of the crew. He must inform and protect

the passenger(s) invited to ride.

Instruct all passenger(s) to be properly seated when the engine is running. Each

passenger should be able to use the handhold under the seat and grab handrail

if needed when properly seated.

Make sure that every passenger has a seat properly installed.

Refer to Watercraft Safety Labels to check the maximum passenger capacity

and the correct underway seating position for your watercraft.

Be sure riders are properly seated and holding on, a handhold is located under

the front of seat cushion. Refer to Passenger Seat in Equipment. Riders can fall

in or can be thrown off the watercraft during unexpected acceleration or aggres-

sive operation. Avoid aggressive operation, sharp turns, and unexpected accel-

eration or deceleration.

CAUTION

Do not stand on seat or on the folded backrest at any given tiime. Fallling

and/or gettiing stuck might occur.

Falls can result in severe injury or death.

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.

If swimming is part of the trip, prepare this activity before boarding.

WARNING

– Never swim allone near the watercraft or leave it unattended. If you are

separated from the watercraft, wiind and current may carry the water-

craft faster than you can swiim.

– Make sure at least one quallified operator stays aboard when others

are iin the water.

WARNING

Never attempt to swim underneath the watercraft or between the pontoons

– Riisk of drowning if caught underneath the watercraft.

– Riisks of entanglement, suffocatiion, iinjury or death iif the engine is

started.

– Always supervise chiildren in water.

SAFETY INFORMATION

RIDE SAFELY

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.

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.

SAFETY INFORMATION

RIDE SAFELY

Also, make sure you and all passengers know how to reboard with the boarding

ladder:

1. Cut off the engine.

2. Deploy the ladder completely.

3. While climbing up, stay on the center of the ladder and keep fingers clear of

the pinching points. Always face the ladder when using it.

4. Store the ladder properly before starting the engine.

Ask inexperienced riders to practice this boarding procedure close to shore be-

fore venturing into deep water.

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.

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. The two floats and the

hull increase the risk of impact. Always be alert for debris and objects in the

water. They could be picked up and thrown rearward by the jet pump onto

people.

SAFETY INFORMATION

RIDE SAFELY

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 equipped with navigation lights.

NOTE: It is important to know and follow all laws related to the use of the navi-

gation lights.

Rear Navigatiion Liight (White)

The rear navigation light is mounted on a removable pole. Refer to Equipment for

installation procedure and storing location.

REAR NAVIGATION LIGHT

SAFETY INFORMATION

RIDE SAFELY

Use this light while your watercraft is anchored on the water after dark so that

other boaters can see your watercraft.

While at rest, with the anchor down, set the switch on the console to the anchor

position.

Once underway again, return the switch to the navigation position.

Front Naviigatiion Liights (Red and Green)

The front navigation lights are a set of one red light and one green light at the

front of the watercraft.

The red navigation light is always on the port (left) side of the watercraft.

The green navigation light is always on the starboard

(right) side of the

watercraft.

FRONT NAVIGATION LIGHTS

1. Red Navigation Light

2. Green Navigation Light

NOTE: Keep this information in mind as you watch other boats navigating in the

area.

Watercrafts must display navigation lights when they are being operated be-

tween sunset and sunrise and during periods of poor visibility, including rain and

fog.

These lights help to alert other boaters of your presence and course.

Carbon Monoxide (CO) Poisoning

All engine exhaust contains carbon monoxide (CO), a deadly gas. Breathing car-

bon monoxide 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 carbon mon-

oxide can collect rapidly, and you can quickly be overcome and unable to save

yourself. Also, deadly levels of carbon monoxide can linger for hours or days in

enclosed or poorly ventilated areas. If you experience any symptoms of carbon

monoxide poisoning, leave the area immediately, get fresh air and seek medical

treatment.

To prevent serious injury or death from carbon monoxide:

SAFETY INFORMATION

RIDE SAFELY

- Never run the watercraft in poorly ventilated or partially enclosed areas such

as boat houses, garage, seawalls or other boats in close proximity. Even if

you try to ventilate engine exhaust, carbon monoxide can rapidly reach dan-

gerous 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.

- Never run the engine at idle for a long period of time. Depending of the wind

speed and orientation, it may push the exhaust fume into the boat and in-

crease the risk of carbon monoxide poisoning to occupants.

- Never ride the watercraft for a long period of time in the transition zone where

the boat is dragging water before getting on plane. In this transition zone the

exhaust gases can be drawn into the boat and increase the risk of carbon

monoxide poisoning to occupants.

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:

- Never attempt to service the fuel system yourself. Servicing the engine in-

stalled in this watercraft require special tools, training and identical replace-

ment parts. The fuel system should be serviced only by BRP trained

technician.

- 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.

SAFETY INFORMATION

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)

Attachment and Towiing Devices

This watercraft comes equipped with a tow point suitable for a ski, wakeboard or

tube tow rope.

It is recommended not to tow more than one device (ski, wakeboard, tube, etc.)

at the same time.

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 swim platform when practicing watersports. The cargo

may interfere with the rope and unsecure it, becoming an obstacle to the person

being towed.

Watercraft Capaciity When Towiing

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.

Towiing and Observing

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.

2. Observer

CAUTION

Make sure the rear viiew iis clear at alll tiimes when someone iis practicing

watersports. The Observer must be ablle to see the person(s) being

towed.

SAFETY INFORMATION

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.

WARNING

Never partiicipate iin watersports iin the dark or with low visibiiliity weather.

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.

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.

SAFETY INFORMATION

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.

Stopping Diistances

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.

Steering and Avoiiding an Obstacle

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.

SAFETY INFORMATION

FUELING

Fuel Requirements

NOTICE

Always use fresh gasoliine.

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:

- 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:

Recommended Fuel

Use common gasoline with an AKI (RON+MON)/2 octane rating of 87 or an

RON octane rating of 91.

Use unleaded gasoline containing MAXIMUM 10% ethanol.

NOTICE

Never experiment wiith other fuels. Engine or fuel system damages may

occur wiith the use of an iinadequate fuell.

NOTICE

Do NOT use fuell from fuel pumps labeled E85.

Use of fuel labeled E15 is prohibited by U.S. EPA Regulations.

SAFETY INFORMATION

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.

SAFETY INFORMATION

PRE-RIDE INSPECTION

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

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.

MAINTENANCE SCHEDULE

Maintenance is very important to keep your watercraft in safe operating condi-

tion. The vehicle should be serviced as per the maintenance schedule.

Proper maintenance is the owner’s responsibility. A warranty claim may be de-

nied if, among other things, the owner or operator caused the problem through

improper maintenance or use.

Perform periodic checks and follow the maintenance schedule. The maiinte-

nance schedule does not exempt the pre-ride inspection.

WARNING

Faiilure to properly maiintain the watercraft accordiing to the maiintenance

schedulle and procedures can make it unsafe to operate.

EPA Regulation - Canadian and USA Watercrafts

A repair shop or person of the owner''s choosing may maiintaiin, replace, or

repair emission control devices and systems. These instructions do not require

components or service by BRP or authorized Sea-Doo dealers.

Although an authorized Sea-Doo dealer has an in-depth technical knowledge

and tools to service your vehicle, the emission-related warranty is not conditioned

on the use of an authorized Sea-Doo dealer or any other establishment with

which BRP has a commercial relationship.

Proper maintenance is the owner’s responsibility. A warranty claim may be de-

nied if, among other things, the owner or operator caused the problem through

improper maintenance or use.

For emission-related warranty claims, BRP is limiting the diagnosis and repair of

emission-related parts to the authorized Sea-Doo dealers. For more information,

please refer to the US EPA Emissions Warranty contained in the warranty

section.

You must follow the instructions for fuel requirements in the fueling section of this

manual. Even if gasoline containing greater than ten volume percent ethanol is

readily available, the US EPA issued a prohibition against the use of gasoline

containing greater than 10 vol% ethanol that applies to this vehicle. The use of

gasoline containing greater than 10 vol% ethanol with this engine may harm the

emission control system.

136

MAINTENANCE SCHEDULE

Salt Water/ Dirty Water Usage

Whenever your watercraft is used in salt or dirty water, this type of usage re-

quires maintenance tasks to be performed between the regular yearly intervals.

These are identified as A+ in the chart below.

If you regularly ride in sallt or diirty water, follow the A+ interval and perform the

tasks outlined in the chart below.

Maintenance Schedule

Make sure to perform proper maintenance at recommended intervals as indi-

cated in the tables.

The maintenance chart indicates the items needing to be addressed based on 2

criteria, whichever happens first:

- Calendar time

- Watercraft hours.

Your driving habits determines the factors you shall adhere to. For example:

- Someone who uses their watercraft every weekend would follow the hours

reading to determine the frequency of his maintenance.

- Someone who uses their watercraft seldomly over the year or only on a few

occasions would follow the calendar tiime to determine the frequency of his

maintenance.

IMPORTANT: The following tables show the appropriate maintenance appli-

cation for the first

3 years. For subsequent years, repeat the same pattern

alternatively.

US EPA EMISSION-RELATED WARRANTY

Bombardier Recreational Products Inc. (“BRP”) warrants to the ultimate purchas-

er and each subsequent purchaser that this new engine, including all parts of its

exhaust emission control system and its evaporative emission control system,

meets two conditions:

1. It is designed, built, and equipped so it conforms at the time of sale to the ulti-

mate purchaser with the requirements of 40 CFR 1045 and 40 CFR 1060.

2. It is free from defects in materials and workmanship that may keep it from

meeting the requirements of 40 CFR 1045 and 40 CFR 1060.

Where a warrantable condition exists, BRP will repair or replace, as it elects, any

part or component with a defect in materials or workmanship that would increase

the engine’s emissions of any regulated pollutant within the stated warranty peri-

od at no cost to the owner, including expenses related to diagnosing and repair-

ing or replacing emission-related parts. All defective parts replaced under this

warranty become the property of BRP.

For all emission-related warranty claims, BRP is limiting the diagnosis and repair

of emission-related parts to the authorized Sea-Doo dealers, unless for emer-

gency repairs as required by item 2 of the following list.

As a certifying manufacturer, BRP will not deny emission-related warranty claims

based on any of the following:

1. Maintenance or other service BRP or BRP's authorized facilities performed.

2. Engine/equipment repair work that an operator performed to correct an un-

safe, emergency condition attributable to BRP as long as the operator tries to

restore the engine/equipment to its proper configuration as soon as possible.

3. Any action or inaction by the operator unrelated to the warranty claim.

4. Maintenance that was performed more frequently than BRP specify.

5. Anything that is BRP fault or responsibility.

6. The use of any fuel that is commonly available where the equipment operates

unless BRP written maintenance instructions state that this fuel would harm

the equipment’s emission control system and operators can readily find the

proper fuel. See maintenance information section and fuel requirements of fu-

eling section.

The emission-related warranty is valid for the following period whichever comes

first:

Hours

Months

Exhaust emission-related components

480

Evaporative emission-related components

N/A

Components Covered

The emission-related warranty covers all components whose failure would in-

crease an engine’s emissions of any regulated pollutant, including the following

listed components:

degrading engine/ equipment performance.

Limited Applicability

As a certifying manufacturer, BRP may deny emission-related warranty claims

for failures that have been caused by the owner’s or operator’s improper mainte-

nance or use, by accidents for which the manufacturer has no responsibility, or

by acts of God. For example, an emission-related warranty claim need not be

honored for failures that have been directly caused by the operator’s abuse of

the engine/ equipment or the operator’s use of the engine/ equipment in a man-

ner for which it was not designed and are not attributable to the manufacturer in

any way.
