Cruise assist
The cruise assist is a function for maintaining
a desired engine speed within a fixed range
while operating the watercraft.
Activating and deactivating the cruise as-
sist
Activation of the cruise assist will be con-
firmed by the beeper and the digital speedom-
eter display.
NOTE:
The beeps and the flashing digital speedome-
ter display also indicate the activation of the
no-wake mode. (See page 42 for more infor-
mation.)
To activate the cruise assist:
(1) Operate the throttle lever until the desired
engine speed is reached.
NOTE:
●
The cruise assist can only be set between
engine speeds of approximately 3000 r/min
and approximately 7000 r/min.
●
The cruise assist cannot be activated in the
low-RPM mode. (See the items in 42 for op-
eration mode information.)
(2) Once the engine speed reaches the de-
sired cruise assist setting, push the “SET”
switch. When the cruise assist is activat-
ed, the beeper sounds three times quick-
ly and the digital speedometer display
starts flashing. To keep the cruise assist
activated, be sure to keep the throttle le-
ver squeezed further than the position at
which the cruise assist was set; releasing
the throttle lever will deactivate the cruise
assist.
NOTE:
The digital speedometer display flashes con-
tinually while the cruise assist is activated.
Make sure that the beeper has sounded and
the digital speedometer display is flashing be-
fore squeezing the throttle lever to the full
throttle position. If the speedometer display is
not flashing, the cruise assist is not activated
