CAUTION:
Never experiment with
other fuels or fuel ratios. Never use
fuel containing more than 10% al-
cohol, (ethanol or methanol). The
use of non-recommended fuel can
result in watercraft performance de-
terioration and damage to critical
parts in the fuel system and engine
components.
Engine Oil
Recommended Oil
This watercraft features a 4-stroke en-
gine that requires 4-stroke motor oil
for internal engine lubrication. Ensure
to respect the following requirements.
NA Engines
Watercraft featuring 4-stroke en-
gines without superchargers require
4-stroke motor oil meeting the require-
ments for API service classification
SL, SJ or SH. Always check the API
service label on the oil container to be
sure it includes those letters.
The XP-S 10W-40 4-stroke oil (P/N 219
700 346) sold by authorized Sea-Doo
dealers meets those requirements.
NOTE:
A synthetic oil meeting the
same requirements may be used. The
XP-S 5W-40 Synthetic 4-stroke oil (P/N
293 600 039) is suitable.
All Supercharged Engines
Use the XP-S 10W-40 4-stroke oil
(P/N 219 700 346) or an equivalent ap-
proved by BRP. The same oil lubricates
both the engine and the supercharger
clutch. The XP-S 10W-40 4-stroke oil
(P/N 219 700 346) has been thorough-
ly tested to be free of any additives
that could impair the functionality of
the supercharger clutch.
NOTE:
Use of any oil that is not rec-
ommended may void BRP’s limited
warranty.
CAUTION: NEVER use synthetic oil
in these engines. This would im-
pair the proper operation of the su-
percharger clutch. Do not add any
additives to the recommended oil.
Beware that oils not recommended
by BRP may contain additives (fric-
tion modifiers) that may cause in-
appropriate slippage of the super-
charger and eventually lead to pre-
mature wear. For this reason, oils
other than XP-S 10W-40 4-stroke oil
(P/N: 219 700 346) or an approved
equivalent are not recommended.
All Engines
CAUTION:
Never use any 2-stroke
engine oil.
Oil Viscosity
The same oil is recommended for
all seasons and all ambient tempera-
tures.
