2021 OWNERS MANUAL | How It Works

button on the dash.
Models:
All models.
Mirror
Even when accompanied by
an onboard observer to assist
in keeping track of passengers,
skiers, boarders, and others
engaged in activities, operators
would be well advised to use
a mirror as part of constant
alertness to the surroundings.
All boats can be equipped with a windshield mounted and
adjustable mirror, unless equipped with the optional PTMEdge
VR140 rear view mirror. (It mounts to the windshield or G5 tower
and has high-definition, prescription-grade optics. It features a
140-degree field of view that is enclosed with an aluminum billet
housing.)
Note that the mirror is held in place by a knob that is
tightened. Unlike most land vehicles, the boat mirrors must have
this knob loosened to adjust the mirror’s field of vision, and then
re-tightened to hold it in place.
Models:
Mirrors are an option for all models.
Ladder
A bow ladder is available for
M240 models. The bow ladder
is foldable, with a sliding latch
that locks the ladder in place
when it is fully extended for
use, as well as when it is folded
up and put away. The ladder
folds upward and has a ladder
lid to stow it in place. The ladders should always be stowed
when the boat is underway. Excessive force from the body of
water as the boat is in motion can damage the ladder, and such
damage is not covered under warranty.
Some models may be equipped with a flip-down step on
the swim board. Be certain the step is properly stowed before
operating the boat. The flip-down step should be down (and
usable) only when the boat is anchored or stationary.
Models:
Bow ladders are standard on M240 models. The flip-
down step is optional on some models.
Fuel Fill
Malibu boats are equipped with fuel fill fittings and vents
to provide state-of-the-art safety protection in the process
of adding fuel to the tank. While most of the fuel system on
the boat is inaccessible to owners/operators, the fuel fill was
designed to ensure the process of fueling is efficient and as safe
as possible.
Fuel fills are located on each
side of the boat toward aft on
the boats. It does not matter
which side is used in the filling
process. Both fills lead to a
single fuel tank. Fills were
installed as a convenience on
both sides because consumers
may be limited in options for reaching fuel pumps at the dock.
There should be no spit-back or overfill at land-based gas
stations in North America. However, the requirements that
eliminate those issues are not applicable to some gasoline
service stations in other countries or even at some marinas in
North America. Therefore, care should always be taken while
fueling the boat. Do not stand too close to the fuel fill location
in case some fuel is expelled from the pressurized system. You
may also hear an audible release of air pressure when opening
the cap. Pay attention to ensure that gasoline is entering only
into the boat’s fuel fill and not spilling or running outside the fuel
fill.
Note that the first time the boat’s fuel tank is filled, the
process may seem slow. This is because fuel is displacing air that
was in the tank. After the first full tank, filling should proceed at
approximately the same pace as one would expect in filling land-
based vehicles.
Steering Wheel
Steering in a boat is different
from most land vehicles,
although the effect is similar.
Malibu boats are equipped with
steering wheels. The standard,
fixed-angle steering wheel is
turned in the direction the
operator wishes to go. Instead
of wheels turning in that direction, the boat steering wheel
controls a rudder, and the rudder turns in the opposite direction.
By cutting through the water with a rudder in the opposite
direction, the bow of the boat will turn in the direction the
steering wheel has been turned. Note that, compared to land-
based vehicles, it takes more time to perform maneuvers on the
water than it would on land. It’s important for new operators to
practice before trying turns in tight locations.
Boats also do not track in the same manner as land-based
NOTICE
Failure to properly stow the ladder and flip-down step prior to getting
underway can result in damage to the ladder, step, and potentially to
the boat, which would not be covered under warranty.
NOTICE
Failure to tighten/loosen the knob on the mirror prior to adjusting the
field of vision can cause damage that is not covered under warranty.
DANGER
!
Gasoline is extremely flammable. Under some conditions, particularly
those that allow fuel fumes to accumulate in enclosed areas, gas
can be explosive as well. Avoid smoking while filling the gas tank or
allowing any sparks in the area. Never run the boat engine while
filling the gas tank. If any gas is spilled, clean it up with clean rags
and dispose of properly on land.
