OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
General Operating
Recommendations
Rough Water or Poor Visibility
Operation
Avoid operation in these conditions. If
you must do so, proceed with caution
using minimum speed.
Crossing Waves
The operator must grip the handlebar
firmly and keep both feet on the foot-
boards.
The passenger must grip the hand-
holds with both hands and keep both
feet on the footboards.
Reduce speed.
Always be prepared to steer and main-
tain your balance as necessary.
When going over waves, raise your
body slightly off the seat to absorb the
shocks with your legs.
When crossing wakes, always keep a
safe distance from watercraft ahead.
WARNING
When crossing wakes, slow down.
Operator and passenger(s) should
brace themselves and adopt a
semi-standing position to help
absorb the bumps. Do not jump
waves or wakes.
Stopping/Docking
When the throttle is released, the wa-
tercraft is slowed by water drag against
the hull. The stopping distance will
vary depending on the watercraft size,
weight, speed, water surface condi-
tion, presence and direction of wind
and current.

The operator should practice in open
waters at various speeds to become
familiar with the stopping distances
under different conditions.
Models Without iBR
WARNING
The engine must stop running for
the watercraft to come to a full
stop.
Models with iBR
WARNING
Always practice braking in open
waters ensuring there are no wa-
tercraft or boats in your immediate
vicinity, especially astern. Other
users of the waterways may not be
able to maneuver or stop in time
to avoid you should you unexpect-
edly come to a full stop in front of
them.
The iBR system can also be used for
slowing down or for stopping the
watercraft more quickly, and for in-
creasing maneuverability especially
when docking. Stopping using the
iBR system in a straight line and in a
turn should be practiced extensively
to become familiar with the handling
characteristics of the watercraft under
partial or full braking conditions.
