Engine Oil Change and Oil
Filter Replacement
The oil change and filter replacement
should be performed by an authorized
Sea-Doo Boats dealer.
Engine Coolant
Recommended Engine Coolant
Always use ethylene-glycol antifreeze
containing corrosion inhibitors specifi-
cally for internal combustion aluminum
engines.
NOTE: When available, it is recom-
mended to use biodegradable an-
tifreeze compatible with internal com-
bustion aluminum engines. This will
contribute to protecting the environ-
ment.
Cooling system must be filled with
BRP PREMIXED COOLANT (P/N 219
700 362) or with a water and antifreeze
solution (50% distilled water, 50% an-
tifreeze).
To prevent antifreeze deterioration, al-
ways use the same brand. Never mix
different brands unless cooling sys-
tem is completely flushed and refilled.
Refer to an authorized Sea-Doo Boats
dealer.
Engine Coolant Level
With boat on a level surface, coolant
should be between MIN. and MAX.
level marks for each coolant reservoir
when each engine is cold.

WARNING
Check coolant level with cold en-
gines. Never add coolant in cool-
ing system when engines are hot.
NOTE: The boat is considered level
when it is in water. When boat is on a
trailer, block the wheels and raise the
bow slightly with the trailer jack (if so
equipped) until the bumper rail is level.
Add coolant to have the level between
marks as required. Use a funnel to
avoid spillage.
Do not overfill.
