� SAFETY MEASURES

General� To fully appreciate the pleasures,

enjoyment and excitement of boat-ing there are some basic rules thatshould be observed and followed byany rider. Some rules may be newto you or covered in the Sea-DooSafety Handbook or Safety Video-cassette, others may be commonsense or obvious… irrespective, weask that you please take a few min-utes of your time to read these safe-ty instructions completely togetherwith your Safety Handbook beforeyou operate your watercraft. Fail-ure to follow this safety informa-tion and safe boating rules couldresult in injury, including the pos-sibility of death to you, your pas-senger(s), or other water users.

� Bombardier recommends not to op-erate a watercraft under the age of16.

� Become completely familiar with thecontrols and operation of the water-craft before embarking on your firsttrip or taking on a passenger(s). If youhave not had the opportunity to do sowith your authorized Sea-Doo dealer,practice driving solo in a suitable areaand feel the response of each con-trol. Be fully familiar with all controlsbefore applying throttle above idlespeed. As its operator, you controland are responsible for the water-craft’s safe operation.

� Always carry the regulatory requiredsafety items on board. Check the lo-cal regulations or consult your au-thorized Sea-Doo dealer.

� Make sure that all users of the wa-tercraft read and understand all on-product warnings.

Operation� Always perform the pre-operation

checks as specified in this guide. � Operator and passenger(s) should at

all times wear a coast guard approvedpersonal flotation device (PFD) that issuitable for personal watercraft.

� Operator and passenger(s) shouldwear protective clothing. Severe in-ternal injuries can occur if water isforced into body cavities of males orfemales as a result of falling into wa-ter or being near jet thrust nozzle.Wet suit bottom (or thick, tightly wo-ven, snug fitting clothing that pro-vides equivalent protection. Thin bikeshorts for example would not beappropriate), footwear, gloves andgoggles/glasses are recommended.

� Always keep in mind that as thethrottle lever is released to idle posi-tion, less directional control is avail-able. To turn the watercraft, bothsteering and throttle are neces-sary.

� Like any other craft, this watercrafthas no brake. Stopping distance willvary depending on initial speed, load,wind, and water conditions. Practicestopping and docking in a safe, trafficfree area to have an idea of how longit will take to stop the watercraft un-der varying conditions. Do not re-lease throttle when trying to steeraway from objects. You need throttleto steer. Do not use the watercraft’sreverse, if so equipped, to stop.

� Ensure that all passengers knowhow to swim and how to reboardthe watercraft from the water.

� The operator and passenger(s) shouldbe properly seated before startingor moving the watercraft, and at alltimes when watercraft is in motion.


7

� Do not start or operate the water-craft if someone is seated on the sundeck (if so equipped) or swim plat-form, or is nearby in the water. Thewatercraft’s jet thrust can cause in-jury. Always accelerate slowly.

� To prevent accidental starting or un-authorized use, always detach thesafety lanyard from the watercraft es-pecially when swimmers are board-ing or nearby, or during removal ofany weeds or debris from the intakegrate.

� Never turn handlebar while someoneis nearby rear of watercraft. Keepaway from steering moving parts(nozzle, side vanes, linkage, etc.).

� Keep away from intake grate whileengine is on. Items such as long hair,loose clothing, or PFD straps can be-come entangled in moving parts re-sulting in severe injury or drowning.

� Ride within your limits and avoid ag-gressive maneuvers to reduce therisk of loss of control, ejection andcollision.

� Riding with a passenger(s) or pullingother crafts, tubes, skies or wake-boards makes the watercraft handledifferently and requires greater skill.Do not overload the watercraft ortake on more passengers than des-ignated for the particular watercraft.Overloading can affect maneuver-ability, stability and performance.

� Avoid adding on accessories, orequipment which may alter the con-figuration, balance or control of thewatercraft. The watercraft maybefitted with tow eyelets which can beused to attach a ski rope. However,do not use these eyelets or the wa-tercraft’s cleats to tow a parasail. Se-vere injury or watercraft damagemay occur.

� In shallow water, proceed with cau-tion and at very low speeds. Ground-ing or abrupt stops may result in in-jury. Debris may also be picked upand be thrown rearward by the jetpump onto people or property.

� Respect no wake zones, the rightsof other water users and the environ-ment. As the “skipper” and ownerof a watercraft you are responsiblefor damage to other crafts caused bythe wake of your watercraft. Allowno one to throw refuse overboard.

� Remember that a watercraft is notdesigned for night time operation.

� Remember, gasoline fumes are in-flammable and explosive. Alwaysadhere to the fueling procedurecontained in this guide and thosegiven to you by the marina. Alwaysverify fuel level before use and dur-ing the ride. Apply the principle of1/3 fuel to destination, 1/3 back and1/3 reserve fuel supply. Do not carryspare fuel or inflammable liquids inany of the storage or engine com-partments.

� Combustion engine needs air to op-erate; consequently this watercraftcan not be totally watertight. Anymaneuvers such as figure eightsetc., that cause the upper deck to beunder water may cause severe en-gine problems due to water ingestion.Refer to SPECIAL PROCEDURESand LIMITED WARRANTY containedin this guide.

� Due to the close proximity of otherracers, it is recommended that anapproved personal watercraft hel-met be used during racing events.Read and follow all instructions andwarnings provided with the helmet.

� Never ride after consuming drugs oralcohol or if you feel tired or ill. Op-erate your watercraft prudently andhave fun.

� Don’t forget that all persons mustassist other boaters in an emergency.

CONTROLS, COMPONENTS AND INSTRUMENTS FUNCTIONS

1) Safety Lanyard(engine cut-off cord)

The safety lanyard cap should be se-curely snapped onto its post to be fullyoperational.Pulling the safety lanyard cap from itspost stops the engine operation. At-tach the safety lanyard to the opera-tor’s Personal Flotation Device (PFD)and snap the cap to the post to be ableto start the engine.

Two short beeps indicates the systemis ready to allow engine starting. Oth-erwise, refer to the TROUBLESHOOT-ING section for the coded signals chart.

1. Safety lanyard cap on the post2. Safety lanyard secured on operator’s PFD

If engine is not started within 5 sec-onds after installing the safety lanyardon its post, 4 short beeps every 3 sec-ond interval will sound for approxi-mately 2 hours to remind you to startthe engine or to remove safety lan-yard. Afterwards, the beeps will stop.The same will occur when safety lan-yard is left on its post 5 seconds afterengine is stopped. Always ensure safety lanyard is notleft on its post after engine is stopped.IMPORTANT: Leaving the safety lan-yard on its post when engine is notrunning will slowly discharge the bat-tery.

Digitally Encoded Security System (DESS)The safety lanyard cap specifically con-tains an electronic circuit that gives ita unique electronic serial number. Thisis the equivalent of a conventional key.This safety lanyard cannot be used onanother watercraft and conversely, theone from another watercraft cannot beused on your watercraft.However, the DESS brings a great flex-ibility. You can buy an additional safetylanyard and have it programmed foryour watercraft.

� WARNING

While engine can be stopped us-ing the engine start/stop button,good habits recommend that thesafety lanyard also be disconnect-ed when stopping.

��

� WARNING

Should the engine be stopped, wa-tercraft directional control is lost(reduced on models with O.P.A.S.TM).Always disconnect safety lanyardwhen watercraft is not in operationin order to prevent accidental en-gine starting or to avoid unautho-rized use by children or others ortheft.


35

The DI models also offers a specialsafety lanyard — the SEA-DOO LKTM

(SEA-DOO Learning KeyTM) — whichelectronically limits the speed of thewatercraft to approximately 55 km/h(35 MPH) therefore enabling first timeusers and less experienced operatorsto learn how to operate the watercraftwhile gaining the necessary confidenceand control.

To have additional safety lanyard, referto an authorized SEA-DOO dealer.

2) HandlebarThe handlebar controls the direction ofthe watercraft. Turning the handlebarto the right steers the watercraft to theright and inversely.

3) Throttle LeverWhen the throttle lever is squeezed,the watercraft accelerates. When fullyreleased, engine automatically slowsdown to idle speed and watercraft isgradually stopped by water drag.

Carburetor-Equipped Models

Do not depress lever unnecessarilywhen engine is not running. A fuel ac-celerator pump delivers fuel to the en-gine each time throttle lever is applied.CAUTION: Engine can be flooded ifthrottle lever is unnecessarily ap-plied several times. If engine is flood-ed, it will not start. Refer to SPECIALPROCEDURES for instructions.

4) Engine Start/Stop Button

All Models

To start engine, depress and hold thestart/stop button. Release immediate-ly after engine is started.To stop engine, fully release throttle le-ver then depress the start/stop buttonand disconnect safety lanyard from thepost.� WARNING

While engine can be stopped us-ing the engine start/stop button,good habits recommend that thesafety lanyard also be disconnect-ed when stopping.

� WARNING

Check handlebar and correspond-ing steering nozzle and side vanes(if so equipped) operation beforestarting. Never turn handlebarwhile someone is nearby rear ofwatercraft. Keep away from steer-ing moving parts (nozzle, sidevanes, linkage etc.).

FUEL AND LUBRICATION

CAUTION: Scrupulously follow theinstructions of this section. Failureto do so may reduce the engine’s lifeand/or performance.

Fueling Procedure

Turn off engine.Do not allow anyone to remain on thewatercraft.Tie watercraft securely to the fuelingpier.Have a fire extinguisher close at hand.Do not insert the spout too far in fillerneck.Pour fuel slowly so that air can escapefrom the tank and prevent fuel flow-back. Be careful not to spill fuel.Stop filling when the fuel reaches thebottom of filler neck. Do not fill into thefiller tube to prevent fuel spill out. Donot overfill. Fully tighten fuel tank cap.

Recommended FuelUse unleaded regular gasoline with 87octane (Ron + Mon)/2 specification.

All Models

NOTE: Do not mix oil with fuel exceptif otherwise specified, at engine break-in. Refer to BREAK-IN PERIOD. Alwayscheck injection oil reservoir level whenrefueling.CAUTION: Never experiment withother fuels or fuel ratios. Never usefuel containing more than 10% alco-hol, (ethanol or methanol). The useof non-recommended fuel can resultin watercraft performance deterio-ration and damage to critical parts inthe fuel system and engine compo-nents.CAUTION: On RFI and DI models,never use injector cleaning products.They may contain additive that coulddamage injector components.

� WARNING

Follow these safe boating fuelinginstructions explicitly.

� WARNING

Always stop the engine before re-fueling. Fuel is inflammable andexplosive under certain condi-tions. Always work in a well venti-lated area. Do not smoke or allowopen flames or sparks in the vicin-ity. Fuel tank may be pressurized,turn cap slowly when opening.Never use an open flame to checkfuel level. When fueling, keep wa-tercraft level. Do not overfill or topoff the fuel tank and leave water-craft in the sun. As temperature in-creases, fuel expands and mightoverflow. Always wipe off any fuelspillage from the watercraft. Peri-odically verify fuel system. Al-ways turn the fuel tank valve (if soequipped) to OFF position whenthe watercraft is not in use.

Recommended Oil

Use only two-stroke engine injection oilsold by authorized SEA-DOO dealers.

➀ If BOMBARDIER injection oil is notavailable, API TC high-quality low ashtwo-stroke injection oil may be used.

➁ BOMBARDIER FORMULA XP-S IIsynthet ic in ject ion o i l andBOMBARDIER injection oil arecompatible, they can be mixed to-gether.

➂ CAUTION: The BOMBARDIER For-mula XP-S II oil is specially formu-lated and tested for the severe re-quirements of the 787 RFI and 947DI engines. Use of any other brandtwo-stroke oil may void the limitedwarranty. Use only BOMBARDIERFormula XP-S II oil. There is noknown equivalent on the marketfor the moment. If a high qualityequivalent were available, it couldbe used.

BOMBARDIER injection oil is a specialblend of basic oil and additives espe-cially selected to ensure unequalled lu-brication, engine cleanliness and mini-mum spark plug fouling.

The BOMBARDIER Formula XP-S IIsynthetic injection oil provides supe-rior lubrication, reduced engine com-ponent wear and oil deposit, thusmaintaining maximum-level perfor-mance and antifriction properties. Thissynthetic injection oil meets the latestASTM and JASO standards by ensur-ing high biodegradability and low ex-haust smoke.CAUTION: Never use four-stroke pe-troleum or synthetic motor oil andnever mix these with outboard motoroil. Do not use NMMA TC-W, TC-W2or TC-W3 outboard two-stroke en-gine oils or ashless two-stroke engineoils. Avoid mixing different brands ofAPI TC oil as resulting chemical reac-tions may cause severe engine dam-age.

Oil Injection SystemThis watercraft features an oil injectionsystem which does not require manualfuel/oil mixing.A sufficient amount of injection oil shouldbe maintained in the reservoir.NOTE: It is recommended to carry a 1 Lof spare injection oil.The use of a funnel is recommendedto pour the oil into the reservoir. Stopfilling as soon as oil appears at approx-imately 13 mm (1/2 in) from top of res-ervoir. Do not overfill.CAUTION: Always maintain a suffi-cient amount of injection oil in the oilreservoir. Check and refill every timeyou refuel if necessary. Do not overfill.If the engine runs out of oil, severe en-gine damage will occur. If the oil res-ervoir is found almost empty, air canenter in the system and it should bebled. Immediately refer to an autho-rized SEA-DOO dealer to have the oilinjection system inspected.

� WARNING

Do not overfill. Reinstall cap andfully tighten. Oil is inflammable.Always wipe off any oil spillagefrom the bilge.

BREAK-IN PERIOD

CAUTION: Scrupulously follow theinstructions of this section. Failureto do so may reduce the engine’s lifeand/or performance.With SEA-DOO watercraft poweredby Rotax® engines, a break-in period of10 hours is required before continuousoperation at full throttle.

All Models except DI Models

To achieve a good break-in, throttle le-ver should not be depressed more than3/4, however, brief acceleration andspeed variations contribute to a goodbreak-in.

DI Models

To achieve a good break-in, vary theengine speed every few minutes withbrief wide open throttle accelerationsof up to 15 seconds.

All Models

CAUTION: Continued wide openthrottle runs and prolonged cruisingwithout speed variations should beavoided, this can cause engine dam-age during the break-in period.


To assure additional protection duringthe initial engine break-in, it is recom-mended to add 1 L of the same oil asin the injection oil reservoir in the fueltank for the first full fuel tank fillingonly.

To add injection oil in the fuel tank, pro-ceed as follows:Fill fuel tank with approximately 15 li-ters (4 gal) of gasoline; then, add theinjection oil in the fuel.Fill up fuel tank with gasoline. Do notoverfill.NOTE: It is important to proceed in thisorder to allow a proper mixing of the oilin the gasoline. If oil is added first in anempty fuel tank, fuel lines will be filledup with injection oil leading in a no startcondition of the engine.CAUTION: Remove and clean sparkplugs after engine break-in.

DI Models

NOTE: Do not add injection oil in thefuel tank for the break-in.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

Principle of OperationPropulsionThe engine is directly coupled to adrive shaft which, in turn, rotates animpeller. This impeller is accurately ad-justed in a housing where the water isdrawn up from underneath the water-craft. Then the water flows throughthe impeller to a venturi. The venturiaccelerates the water and producesthrust to move the watercraft. De-pressing the throttle lever increasesengine speed and therefore watercraftspeed.

TYPICAL

The shift lever should be in the forwardposition in order for the watercraft to ad-vance.

Neutral and Reverse

To find the neutral, set in reverse thenpush back until the watercraft stopsmoving backwards.The reverse gate will be in the middleposition, directing half of the thrust to-ward the front of the watercraft to min-imize watercraft movement.

� WARNING

Always perform the PRE-OPERATIONCHECKS before operating the wa-tercraft. Become thoroughly famil-iar with all controls and the functionof each. Should any control or in-struction not be fully understood,refer to an authorized SEA-DOOdealer.

� WARNING

Whenever the engine is to be start-ed, the operator and passenger(s)should always be properly sittingon the watercraft and be wearingprotective clothing including a CoastGuard approved PFD and a wet suitbottom.

��7� �

� WARNING


� WARNING

Never use jet pump components asa supporting point to board the wa-tercraft. Shift lever should only beused when the engine is idling andwatercraft is completely stopped.Never rev the engine at high RPMin reverse. Do not use reverse tostop the watercraft. Only use re-verse at slow speed and for theshortest time possible. Always en-sure the path behind is clear of ob-jects and persons including chil-dren playing in shallow water.

� WARNING

When the watercraft is in neutralposition, the drive shaft and impel-ler are still turning.


57

1. Shift lever in neutral position

1. Reverse gate in middle position

To obtain reverse, pull shift lever com-pletely. The reverse gate will be in down-ward position, directing all the thrust to-ward the front of the watercraft.

1. Shift lever in reverse position

1. Reverse gate in downward position

NOTE: To obtain maximum efficiencyand control from the reverse, increaseengine speed to slightly above idle.Too much RPM will create water tur-bulence and reduce reverse efficiency.In reverse position, turn the handlebarin the same direction that you want tomove the rear of the watercraft.For example, to steer the rear of the wa-tercraft to the left side, turn the handle-bar to the left side.

Variable Trim System(if so equipped)The variable trim system (VTS) chang-es the angle of the jet pump nozzle toprovide the operator with a fast, effec-tive system to compensate for load,thrust, riding position and water condi-tions. Correctly adjusted, it can im-prove handling, reduce porpoising, andposition the watercraft at its best ridingangle to attain maximum performance.When first using the watercraft, theoperator should become familiar withthe use of the variable trim system(VTS) at varying speeds and water con-ditions. A mid-range trim is generallyused when cruising. Experience alonewill dictate the best trim for the condi-tions. During the watercraft break-inperiod, when lower speeds are recom-mended, it is an excellent opportunityto gain familiarity of trim adjustmentand its effects.When the nozzle is positioned in an up-ward angle, the water thrust directs thebow of the watercraft upward. This po-sition is used to optimize high speed.

TYPICAL1. Push on arrow pointing upward on VTS

button2. Bow up3. Nozzle up

NOTE: VTS position is indicated on abar gauge in the information center.When the nozzle is directed down-ward, the bow is forced downward andenhances the watercraft turning capa-bilities. As with any watercraft, speedand operator body position and move-ment (body English), will determine thedegree and sharpness of the water-craft turn. Porpoising can be reduced oreliminated if the nozzle is downwardand speed is adjusted proportionately.

� WARNING

Shift lever should only be used whenthe engine is idling and watercraft iscompletely stopped. Do not use re-verse to stop the watercraft.

Steering

Turning the handlebar pivots the jetpump nozzle which controls the water-craft direction. Turning the handlebar tothe right will turn the watercraft to theright and inversely. The throttle shouldbe applied to turn the watercraft.

Unlike a car, a watercraft needs somethrottle to turn. Practice in a safe areaapplying the throttle and turning awayfrom an imaginary object. This is agood collision avoidance technique.

The watercraft behaves differently witha passenger and requires greater skill.The passenger should always grip theseat strap or grab handle. Reducespeed and avoid sharp turns. Avoidchoppy water conditions when carryinga passenger.

� WARNING

Throttle should be applied andhandlebar turned to change the di-rection of the watercraft. Steeringefficiency will differ depending onthe number of passengers, load,water conditions and environmen-tal factors such as the wind.

� WARNING

On models without O.P.A.S. direc-tional control is reduced when thethrottle is released and lost when en-gine is off.

� WARNING

On models with O.P.A.S. directionalcontrol is reduced when the throttleis released and/or when engine isoff.

Models with Off-Power Assisted Steering System (O.P.A.S.)

Two side vanes on the rear sides of thehull, turn as the steering is turned toassist the watercraft turning. At first,carefully experiment turning with thissystem.

1. Side vanes turn following steering movement

When engine is running at approximate-ly 75% or more RPM, the side vanesare automatically raised to upper posi-tion since they are not required at thatvehicle speed range.Between 30% and 75% engine RPM,side vanes gradually raised from lowerposition to upper position.

1. Side vane in upper position

When throttle is released and engineRPM drops, the side vanes are auto-matically lowered thus assisting steer-ing control.

1. Side vane in lower position

SPECIAL PROCEDURES

Monitoring SystemAll Models except DI Models

To assist you when using the water-craft, a system monitors some compo-nent of the watercraft and sends audi-ble signals through a beeper to informyou of a particular condition. Refer tothe TROUBLESHOOTING section forthe coded signals chart.

Limp Home ModeDI Models

Monitoring SystemTo assist you when using the water-craft, a system monitors the electroniccomponents of the fuel injection sys-tem and some components of theelectrical system. When a fault occurs,it sends visual messages through theinformation center and/or audible sig-nals through a beeper to inform you ofa particular condition. Refer to the IN-FORMATION CENTER for the displayedmessages and the TROUBLESHOOT-ING section for the beeper coded sig-nals chart.

Limp Home ModesBesides the signals as seen above, thesystem may automatically set defaultparameters to the MPEM to ensurethe adequate operation of the water-craft if a component of the fuel injec-tion system is not operating properly. Depending on the severity of the mal-function, the watercraft speed may bereduced and not allowed to reach itstop speed as usual. In this case, lettingthe engine returning at idle speed mayallow normal operation to come back.The engine RPM may be limited to idleif some critical components fail. In thiscase, removing and reinstalling thesafety lanyard on its post may allownormal operation to come back.

These performance-reduced modesallow the rider to go back home whichwould not be possible without this ad-vanced system. If this occurs, see anauthorized SEA-DOO dealer as soon aspossible for inspection.

Engine OverheatingAll Models

CAUTION: If the monitoring beepercontinuously sounds, stop engine im-mediately.Perform JET PUMP WATER INTAKEAND IMPELLER CLEANING proce-dure described in this section.When back to shore, flush cooling sys-tem, refer to POST-OPERATION CARE.If engine still overheats, refer to an au-thorized SEA-DOO dealer for servicing.

Jet Pump Water Intake and Impeller Cleaning

Weeds, shells or debris can get caughton the intake grate, drive shaft and/orimpeller. A clogged water intake maycause troubles such as:1. Cavitation: Engine speed is high but

watercraft 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 waterto cool the engine, a clogged intakewill cause the engine to overheatand damage engine internal compo-nents.

� WARNING



69

A weed clogged area can be cleanedas follows:

In-Water CleaningRock the watercraft several times whilerepeatedly pressing engine start/stopbutton for short period without startingengine. Most of the time, this will re-move the blockage. Start engine andmake sure water flows out from bleedoutlet and watercraft operates properly.If system is still blocked, move the wa-tercraft out of the water and removeblockage manually.If the aforementioned method does notwork, the following can be performed:– With engine running and before ap-

plying throttle, put shift lever in re-verse position and vary throttle quick-ly several times.

– Repeat procedure if necessary.

When running the engine out of fuel,it may be necessary to remove and in-stall the safety lanyard 2 - 3 times toinitially feed the fuel system after fueltank refill.

Towing the Watercraft in WaterAll Models

Special precautions should be takenwhen towing a SEA-DOO watercraft inwater.Maximum recommended towing speedis 24 km/h (15 MPH).

When towing your watercraft in water,pinch the water supply hose from theimpeller housing to the engine with alarge hose pincher (P/N 529 032 500).

This will prevent the cooling systemfrom filling which may lead to water be-ing injected into and filling the exhaustsystem. Without the engine runningthere isn’t any exhaust pressure to car-ry the water out the exhaust outlet.CAUTION: Failure to do this may re-sult in damage to the engine. If youmust tow a stranded watercraft inwater and do not have a hose pinch-er, be sure to stay well below themaximum towing speed of 24 km/h(15 MPH).Snugly install the hose pincher on thewater supply hose as shown.

Fueltank may be pressurized, turn capslowly when opening. Never usean open flame to check fuel level.When fueling, keep watercraft lev-el. Do not overfill or top off the fueltank and leave watercraft in thesun. As temperature increases, fuelexpands and might overflow. Al-ways wipe off any fuel spillagefrom the watercraft. Periodicallyverify fuel system. Always turn thefuel tank valve (if so equipped) toOFF position when the watercraft isnot in use.

CAUTION: Antifreeze mix must befed in cooling system. Otherwiseremaining water will freeze. This op-eration requires a good technicalknowledge of the cooling systempath. If antifreezing is not performedadequately engine/exhaust systemmay freeze and cause severe enginedamage. We strongly recommendthis operation be performed by anauthorized SEA-DOO dealer.CAUTION: Always use ethylene gly-col antifreeze containing corrosioninhibitors specifically recommendedfor aluminum engines.NOTE: When available, it is recom-mended to use biodegradable anti-freeze compatible with internal com-bustion aluminum engines. This willcontribute to protect the environment.NOTE: The engine will not have to runduring this operation but should havebeen ran before, to exhaust as muchwater as possible, from cooling sys-tem components.NOTE: On some models, it may beeasier to reach hoses when you re-move the vent tube support.

All Models

Most of the antifreeze will drain outwhen removing the hose pinchers. Usea container to recover it. DISPOSE AN-TIFREEZE AS PER YOUR LOCAL LAWSAND REGULATIONS.NOTE: Although antifreeze will mainlydrain out, the antifreeze has mixed withthe water that was possibly trapped inthe water jackets and thus preventingfreezing problems.At pre-season preparation, drain theremaining antifreeze from cooling sys-tem prior to using the watercraft.The following steps should be per-formed to provide the watercraft en-hanced protection.Clean the bilge with hot water and de-tergent or with bilge cleaner. Rinsethoroughly. Lift front end of watercraftto completely drain bilge. If any repairsare needed to body or to the hull con-tact your authorized SEA-DOO dealer.For paint touch up to mechanical partsuse Bombardier spray paint.Reinstall vent tube support (if applica-ble).

Anticorrosion TreatmentWipe off any residual water in the en-gine compartment.Spray BOMBARDIER LUBE lubricantor equivalent over metallic compo-nents in engine compartment.

Lubricate the throttle cable withBOMBARDIER LUBE lubricant orequivalent.

Final StepsApply a good quality marine wax to thebody.

The seat and the seat extension (if soequipped) should be partially leftopened and storage baskets (if soequipped) should be removed duringstorage. This will prevent engine com-partment condensation and possiblecorrosion.If the watercraft is to be stored out-side, cover it with an opaque tarpaulinto prevent sun rays and grime from af-fecting the plastic components, water-craft finish as well as preventing dustaccumulation.CAUTION: The watercraft shouldnever be left in water for storage.Never leave the watercraft stored indirect sunlight. Never completelyseal watercraft in a plastic wrap.Ventilation must be provided toavoid condensation and possiblecorrosion.

Pre-Season PreparationUse the following chart.Since technical skills and special toolsare required, some operations should beperformed by an authorized SEA-DOOdealer.

� WARNING

Do not lubricate the safety lanyardpost.

� WARNING

Only perform procedures as de-tailed in this guide. It is recommend-ed that the assistance of an autho-rized SEA-DOO dealer be periodical-ly obtained on other components/systems not covered in this guide.Unless otherwise specified, enginemust not be running and the safetylanyard must be removed from itspost for all maintenance proce-dures. Components inside enginecompartment may be hot. Whencomponent conditions seem lessthan satisfactory, replace with gen-uine BOMBARDIER parts or ap-proved equivalents.
