This decal is located just below the rear of the seat.
General Safety/Warning Decal Text:
To reduce the risk of
SEVERE INJURY or DEATH
:
Wear
A PERSONAL FLOTATION DEVICE (PFD)
. All riders
must wear a Coast guard approved PFD that is suitable for per-
sonal watercraft (PWC) use.
WEAR PROTECTIVE CLOTHING.
Severe internal injuries can
occur if water is forced into body cavities as a result of falling into
water or being near jet thrust nozzle. Normal swimwear does not
adequately protect against forceful water entry into rectum or
vagina. All riders must wear a wet suit bottom or clothing that
provides equivalent protection (see Owner’s Manual). Foot-
wear, gloves and goggles/glasses are recommended.
KNOW BOATING LAWS.
Polaris Industries Inc. recommends
a minimum operator age of 16 years old. Know the operator age
and training requirements for your state. A boating safety course
is recommended and may be required by your state.
ATTACH ENGINE SHUT-OFF CORD (LANYARD)
to wrist and
keep it free from handlebars so that engine stops if operator falls
off. After riding, remove cord from PWC to avoid unauthorized
use by children or others.
RIDE WITHIN YOUR LIMITS AND AVOID AGGRESSIVE MA-
NEUVERS
to reduce the risk of loss of control, ejection, and col-
lision. This is a high performance boat - not a toy. Sharp turns
or jumping wakes or waves can increase the risk of back/spinal
injury (paralysis), facial injuries, and broken legs, ankles and
other bones. Do not jump wakes or waves.
DO NOT APPLY THROTTLE WHEN ANYONE IS AT REAR OF
PWC.
Turn engine off or keep engine at idle. Water and/or de-
bris exiting jet thrust nozzle can cause severe injury.
DO NOT OVERLOAD.
It will significantly reduce stability and
control. Never exceed rider or weight capacity. See capacity de-
cal.
KEEP AWAY FROM INTAKE GRATE
while engine is on. Items
such as long hair, loose clothing, or PFD straps can become en-
tangled in moving parts resulting in severe injury or drowning.
NEVER RIDE AFTER CONSUMING DRUGS OR ALCOHOL.
READ AND FOLLOW OWNER’S MANUAL.
If Owner’s Manu-
al is missing, contact a Polaris Dealer for a replacement.
