If the overheat warning is ignored, engine
and exhaust system heat may increase, par-
ticularly if the watercraft is operated at
higher speeds. When this occurs, the warn-
ing light, the engine overheat warning indi-
cator and the buzzer will change from
intermittently to continuously on, and the
overheat system will stop ignition to the
engine to reduce the risk of severe over-
heating. The engine cannot be started until
it cools down, so it may be necessary to
have the watercraft towed back to the
beach. (See “Towing the watercraft” on page
5-7 for towing procedures.)
NOTE:
@
Press the select button on the multifunction
information center to stop the buzzer.

Exhaust temperature warning
system
This model is equipped with an exhaust
temperature warning system.
If the exhaust temperature gets too hot,
the warning light and exhaust temperature
warning indicator begin to blink, and the
buzzer sounds intermittently.
When this occurs, reduce engine speed
and return to shore to allow the exhaust sys-
tem to cool down.
WARNING
@
Hot muffler surfaces can cause serious
burns. Do not touch any muffler surface
during or after engine operation. The cat-
alytic converter gets hotter after the
engine stops.
