SPECIAL PROCEDURES
4. If this method does not work, ask
someone to assist you.
NOTE:
The watercraft can be easily
flipped back by a person weighting
more than 84 kg (185 lb). However,
people lighter than this should plan to
do it with another person.
NOTICE
If the watercraft has been
capsized for more than 5 minutes,
do not attempt to crank the engine
to avoid water ingestion that would
damage the engine. See an autho-
rized Sea-Doo dealer as soon as pos-
sible.
NOTICE
If the engine does not
crank, do not attempt to start it any-
more. Otherwise, the engine could
be damaged. See an authorized
Sea-Doo dealer as soon as possi-
ble.
As soon as possible, check for pres-
ence of water in the bilge. Drain as
necessary when back to the shore.
Submerged Watercraft
To limit damages to the engine, per-
form the following procedure as soon
as possible.
Drain bilge.
If it was submerged in salt water, spray
bilge and all components with fresh
water using a garden hose to stop the
salt corroding effect.
NOTICE
Never try to crank or start
the engine. Water trapped in intake
manifold would flow towards the
engine and possibly cause severe
engine damage.
Bring the watercraft to an authorized
Sea-Doo dealer as soon as possible to
have it serviced.
NOTICE
The longer the delay be-
fore you have the engine serviced,
the greater the damage to the en-
gine will be.
Water-Flooded Engine
NOTICE
Never try to crank or start
the engine. Water trapped in intake
manifold would flow towards the
engine and possibly cause severe
engine damage.
Bring the watercraft to an authorized
Sea-Doo dealer as soon as possible to
have it serviced.
NOTICE
The longer the delay be-
fore you have the engine serviced,
the greater the damage to the en-
gine will be. Failure to have the en-
gine properly serviced may cause
severe engine damage.
Towing the Watercraft in
Water
Special precautions should be taken
when towing a Sea-Doo watercraft in
water.
The maximum recommended towing
speed is 21 km/h (13 MPH).
This will prevent the exhaust system
from filling with water, which may lead
to water being injected into and filling
the engine. Without the engine run-
ning, there isn't any exhaust pressure
to push the water out the exhaust out-
let.
NOTICE
Failure to follow these
instructions may result in damage
to the engine. If you must tow a
stranded watercraft in water, be sure
not to exceed the maximum towing
speed of 21 km/h (13 MPH).
If you have to tow the watercraft faster
than the maximum recommended
speed, clamp the cross over hose.
