COMPONENTS FUNCTIONS
1) Safety Lanyard
The safety lanyard cap must be se-
curely snapped onto its switch to be
fully operational.
Pulling the safety lanyard cap from the
switch stops the engine operation. At-
tach the safety lanyard to the opera-
tor’s Personal Flotation Device (PFD)
and snap the cap to the switch to be
able to start the engine.

Digitally Encoded Security
System (DESS)
The safety lanyard cap specifically con-
tains an electronic circuit that gives it
a unique electronic serial number.
This safety lanyard cannot be used on
another watercraft and conversely, the
one from another watercraft cannot be
used on your watercraft.
However, the DESS brings a great flex-
ibility. You can buy additional safety
lanyard and have it programmed for
your watercraft. To have additional
safety lanyard programmed, 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 switch, it can be restart-
ed within approximately 10 minutes by
pressing the engine start/stop button.
After this delay, it is necessary to apply
a slight pressure or the removal and re-
installation of the safety lanyard on the
switch to allow engine starting. Two
short beeps should sound indicating
the system is ready again to allow en-
gine starting.
Monitoring System
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 inform
you of a particular condition. Refer to
the TROUBLESHOOTING section for
the coded signals chart.
WARNING
Should the safety lanyard cap be-
come loose or fail to remain on its
switch, replace it immediately.
WARNING
Should the engine be stopped,
watercraft
directional control is
lost. Always disconnect safety lan-
yard when leaving
watercraft.
WARNING
Do not lubricate the safety lanyard
post.
