Reconnect the upper water outlet
hose and secure with existing clamp.
CAUTION: It is highly recommend-
ed to pour antifreeze into the in-
tercooler and exhaust manifold.
Failure to do so, may cause severe
damage to these components.
CAUTION: Use only undiluted an-
tifreeze (100% concentration). The
premixed antifreeze available from
BRP is NOT suitable for this partic-
ular application. Its concentration
will be reduced when mixed with
remaining water trapped in water
jackets.
NOTE:
When available, it is recom-
mended to use biodegradable an-
tifreeze compatible with internal com-
bustion aluminum engines. This will
contribute to protect the environment.
NOTE:
The engine will not have to run
during this operation but should have
been ran before, to exhaust as much
water as possible, from cooling sys-
tem components.
Battery
Contact your authorized Sea-Doo deal-
er.
Engine Cooling System
Antifreeze should be replaced every
200 hours or every 2 years to prevent
antifreeze deterioration.
The antifreeze replacement and a den-
sity test should be performed by an au-
thorized Sea-Doo dealer.
CAUTION: Improper antifreeze mix-
ture might allow freezing of the liq-
uid in the cooling system if vehi-
cle is stored in area where freezing
point is reached. This would seri-
ously damage the engine. Failure
to replace the antifreeze for stor-
age may allow its degradation that
could result in poor cooling when
engine will be used.
Bilge Cleaning
The following steps should be per-
formed to provide the watercraft en-
hanced protection.
Clean the bilge with hot water and de-
tergent or with bilge cleaner. Rinse
thoroughly. Lift front end of water-
craft to completely drain bilge.
Anticorrosion Treatment
Wipe off any residual water in the en-
gine compartment.
Spray XP-S Lube or equivalent over
metallic components in engine com-
partment.
WARNING
Do not lubricate the DESS post.
Lubricate the throttle cable with XP-S
Lube or equivalent.
Drive Shaft Corrosion Protection
To give additional protection to drive
shaft against possible corrosion in salt
water conditions, it is recommended
to bring the watercraft to an authorized
Sea-Doo dealer for proper lubrication.
Final Steps
If any repairs are needed to body or
to the hull, contact your authorized
Sea-Doo dealer. For paint touch up of
mechanical parts use BRP spray paint.
Apply a good quality marine wax to the
body.
The seat and the seat extension
should be partially left opened. This
will prevent engine compartment con-
densation and possible corrosion.
If the watercraft is to be stored out-
side, cover it with an opaque tarpaulin
to prevent sun rays and grime from af-
fecting the plastic components, water-
craft finish as well as preventing dust
accumulation.
