To have an additional safety lanyard,
refer to an authorized SEA-DOO dealer.
If the engine is stopped with the start/
stop button while the safety lanyard re-
mains on the post, it can be restarted
within approximately 10 minutes by
pressing the engine start/stop button.
After this delay, it is necessary to apply
a slight pressure or to remove and re-
install the safety lanyard on the post to
allow engine starting.
2) Handlebar
The handlebar controls the direction of
the watercraft. Turning the handlebar
to the right steers the watercraft to the
right and inversely.
3) Throttle Lever
When the throttle lever is squeezed,
the watercraft accelerates. When fully
released, engine automatically slows
down to idle speed and watercraft is
gradually
stopped
by water drag.
4) Engine Start/Stop
Button
To start engine, depress and hold the
start/stop button. Release immediate-
ly after engine is started.
To stop engine, fully release throttle lever
then depress the start/stop button and
disconnect safety lanyard from the post.
