OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
The braking function can only be en-
gaged during forward operation at or
above the threshold speed of 14 km/h
(9 MPH).
Braking is engaged and controlled
when the iBR lever on the LH handle-
bar is pulled in at least 25% of its travel.
All models except GTR-X model
smo2009-002-202_a

GTR-X model
219001878-012_a
TYPICAL - iBR LEVER
1. iBR lever
2. Lever released position
3. Approximate 25% position
4. Operating range
WARNING
Braking should be practiced in
open waters and at gradually in-
creasing speeds in order to be-
come fully familiar with the con-
trols and watercraft handling char-
acteristics.
When iBR lever is applied, the throttle
lever command is overridden and en-
gine throttle control is now dependant
on the iBR lever position. Braking can
thus be modulated by using only the
iBR lever.
Watercraft deceleration is proportional
to the braking force. The more the iBR
lever is pulled in, the greater the brak-
ing force applied.
NOTE:
Be careful to gradually actuate
the iBR lever to adjust intensity of the
braking force and simultaneously re-
lease the throttle lever.
CAUTION
When braking, rid-
ers must brace themselves against
the deceleration force to prevent
from moving forward on the water-
craft and losing balance. The oper-
ator should always keep both hands
on the handlebars, and all passen-
gers should maintain a firm grip of a
handhold or the waist of the person
in front of them.
WARNING
Stopping distance will vary de-
pending on initial speed, load,
wind, number of riders, water con-
ditions, and the amount of braking
power commanded by the oper-
ator. Always adjust your riding
style accordingly.
When the watercraft slows to less than
14 km/h (9 MPH), braking mode ends
and reverse mode is engaged. Re-
lease the iBR lever once the watercraft
is stopped. Otherwise, a rearward
movement will be initiated.
CAUTION
As
the
watercraft
slows to a stop, the wake created
by the watercraft will catch up and
tend to push the watercraft forward.
Ensure there are no obstacles or
bathers in the direction of travel.
