However, the DESS brings a great flex-
ibility. You can buy an additional safety
lanyard and have it programmed for
your watercraft.
The
DI models
also offers a special
safety lanyard — the SEA-DOO LK
TM
(SEA-DOO Learning Key
TM
)
— which
electronically limits the speed of the
watercraft to approximately 55 km/h
(35 MPH) therefore enabling first time
users and less experienced operators
to learn how to operate the watercraft
while gaining the necessary confidence
and control.
To have additional safety lanyard, refer
to an authorized SEA-DOO dealer.
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.
Carburetor-Equipped Models
Do not depress lever unnecessarily
when engine is not running. A fuel ac-
celerator pump delivers fuel to the en-
gine each time throttle lever is applied.
CAUTION:
Engine can be flooded if
throttle lever is unnecessarily ap-
plied several times. If engine is flood-
ed, it will not start. Refer to SPECIAL
PROCEDURES for instructions.
4) Engine Start/Stop
Button
All Models
To start engine, depress and hold the
start/stop button. Release immediate-
ly after engine is started.
WARNING
While engine can be stopped us-
ing the engine start/stop button,
good habits recommend that the
safety lanyard also be disconnect-
ed when stopping.

ing steering nozzle and side vanes
