ACTIVE TECHNOLOGIES (iCONTROL)
As you proceed under a constant cruis-
ing speed setting, hold the throttle
lever fully depressed in order to keep
your full attention to maintaining good
situational awareness.
Refer to
CRUISE MODE
in
OPERAT-
ING MODES for detailed instructions.
Slow Speed Mode
Slow speed mode is a function
of cruise mode which allows the
operator
to adjust and set idle
speed corresponding to a water-
craft speed of 1.6 km/h to 11 km/h
(1 MPH to 7 MPH). The throttle lever
should not be depressed while operat-
ing in slow speed mode.
Refer to
OPERATING MODES
for de-
tailed instructions.
Ski Mode
Ski mode allows for a controlled launch
and accurately maintained maximum
towing speed when towing a skier or
wake boarder.
Refer to
OPERATING MODES
for de-
tailed instructions.
Learning Key
The Sea-Doo LK TM learning key limits
the speed of the watercraft therefore
enabling first time users and less ex-
perienced operators to learn how to
operate the watercraft while gaining
the necessary confidence and control.
Limitations
The ability of a novice to operate the
watercraft can be exceeded even
when a learning key is used.
Refer to
OPERATING MODES
for in-
formation on using and programming
learning keys.
iBR (intelligent Brake and
Reverse System)
This watercraft uses an electronically
controlled braking and reverse system
called the iBR system (intelligent Brake
and Reverse).
The iBR module controls the position
of the iBR gate to provide forward
thrust, reverse thrust, braking thrust,
and neutral.
The operator commands the position
of the iBR gate using either the throt-
tle lever for forward thrust, or the iBR
lever for neutral, reverse, and for the
braking function.
NOTE: The iBR lever can only be used
to command a change in the gate posi-
tion if the engine is running.
Using the iBR system significantly re-
duces the stopping distance of this
watercraft and can increase its maneu-
verability as it can be used in a straight
line, in a turn, at high or low speeds, or
to propel the watercraft in reverse for
docking or maneuvering in very close
quarters.
Under ideal conditions, experienced
operators were consistently able to
reduce , the stopping distance of a wa-
tercraft equipped with an iBR system
by approximately 33%,from an initial
speed of 80 km/h (50 MPH).
Limitations
Even when equipped with an iBR sys-
tem, watercrafts do not have the ability
of land based vehicles.
Stopping distance will vary notably de-
pending on initial speed, load, wind,
current, water conditions and the
amount of braking.
The iBR system has no effect on the
rearward motion.
It cannot prevent your watercraft from
drifting in current or wind.
