have been prepared to acquaint
the owner/operator or passenger with
this personal watercraft and its various

instructions. Each is indispensable for
the proper use of the product, and
should be kept in a waterproof bag with
the watercraft at all times.

content of the

.
For any questions pertaining to the
warranty and its application, consult
the WARRANTY section in this guide,

This guide uses the following safety
alert symbol in conjunction with signal
words to indicate a potential personal
injury hazard.

mation needed to fully complete an in-
struction.

ard, the understanding and application
of the information will promote the cor-
rect use of the watercraft.
The information and components/
system descriptions contained in this
guide are correct at the time of writing.
