Your Cobalt boat is equipped with an ignition safety
switch located on the lower lip of the helm. The
ignition safety switch and lanyard will stop the
engine(s) in case of an emergency. Attach the
lanyard to the boat operator whenever the engine is
running, but be aware there will be a loss of boat
control if the switch is activated. If the operator is
thrown from the seat or moves too far from the
helm, the lanyard will become disconnected from
the ignition safety switch, shutting off the engines.
