FOREWORD

This Operator’s Guide has been prepared to acquaint the owner/operator or passenger of this sport boat with the various sport boat controls, maintenance and safe riding instructions. It is indispensable for the proper use of the product, and should be kept in a waterproof bag in the sport boat at all times. Make sure you read and understand the content of this document.

For any questions pertaining to the warranty and its application, please consult an authorized Sea-Doo sport boat dealer.

Hazard Statements

As you read your Owners Manual and this supplement, please note the hazard warnings which alert you to safety precautions related to unsafe conditions or operating procedures.

This guide uses the following symbols to emphasize particular information.

The safety alert symbol is recognized around the world. In this manual, it means read this information carefully!

Be sure you understand the consequences of the hazards and how to avoid them. Failure to follow the recommendations in a hazard communication statement may result in property damage, personal injury, or death.

People often refer to a hazard statement as a warning in a general sense.

This manual uses three kinds of

“warnings” depending on the likely effect of a hazard (minor injury, severe injury, death).

WARNING

Identifies a potentially or imminently hazardous situation which, if not avoided, COULD result in serious personal injuries including the possibility of death or substantial property damage.

CAUTION: This signal word indicates a potentially hazardous situation which, if not avoided, may result in minor or moderate personal injury or property damage. It may also be used to alert against unsafe practices.

NOTE: Indicates supplementary information needed to fully complete an instruction relating to equipment operation and/or maintenance procedures.

Although the mere reading of such information does not eliminate the hazard, the understanding and application of the information will promote correct and safe use of the sport boat.

The warnings in this supplement do not and cannot address every conceivable situation. Always use common sense! If a procedure, method, tool, or part is not specifically recommended, you must satisfy yourself that it is safe for you and others and that your boat will not be damaged or made unsafe as a result of your decision.

SAFETY

Your safety and that of your passengers and fellow boaters is YOUR responsibility. Before launching your boat, you should completely read and understand this Operator’s Guide , product warnings and labels, the Safety Videocassette and other information provided with your craft or by your dealer. Heed and follow all warnings, safety precautions and operating procedures.

Bombardier strongly recommends that you take an approved boating safety course. Always operate your boat in compliance with safe boating rules, and with consideration, courtesy and common sense. Failure to do so could result in injury, including the possibility of death, to you, your passengers, others you lend your boat to, or other water users.

Safe Boating Checklist

When leaving on a cruise, whether for an hour or for several days, go through the following Safe Boating Checklist.

Reminders Regarding

Operation...

– The performance of this sport boat may significantly exceed that of other craft you may have operated. Become completely familiar with the controls and operation of this sport boat before embarking on your first trip or taking on a passenger(s). If you have not had the opportunity to do so, practice driving solo in a suitable traffic-free area and feel the response of each control. Be fully familiar with all controls before accelerating above idle speed. Do not assume that all sport boats handle identically. Each model differs, often substantially.

– Always keep in mind that as the throttle lever is returned to the idle position, less directional control is available. To turn the craft, both steering and throttle are necessary.

– Like any other boat, this craft has no brake. Stopping distance will vary depending on initial speed, load, wind, and water conditions. Practice stopping and docking in a safe, traffic-free area to have an idea of how long it will take to stop the craft under varying conditions. Do not release the throttle when trying to steer away from objects. You need throttle to steer. Do not use the craft's reverse, if so equipped, to stop.

– Do not start or operate the sport boat if any person is not properly seated in a seat intended for use when underway (not the sun deck or swim platform) or if a person is nearby in the water.

– The sport boat’s jet thrust can cause injury. Always accelerate slowly, and decelerate in a controlled fashion.

– Observe the instructions on all safety labels. They are there to help assure that you have a safe and enjoyable outing.

– Riding with passenger(s) or pulling other boats, tubes, a skier or a wakeboarder makes the craft handle differently and requires greater skill.

– Certain sport boats may come equipped with tow eyelets, a ski pole or a wake tower which can be used to attach a tow rope for a skier, tuber or wakeboarder. Do not use these attachment points or any other portion of the sport boat to tow a parasail or another craft. Personal injury or severe craft damage may occur.

– In shallow water, proceed with caution and at very low speeds. Grounding or abrupt stops may result in injury. The jet pump may pick up debris and throw it rearward causing a risk of injuring people or damaging the jet pump or other property.

8 SAFETY INFORMATION

lmo2004-006a_safety.fm Page 9 Tuesday, August 12, 2003 1:40 PM

– Engine exhaust contains carbon monoxide (CO), which can cause injury or death if inhaled in sufficient quantities. Do not operate the craft in a confined area or allow CO to accumulate in or around the craft, or in enclosed or sheltered areas.

– Combustion engines need air to operate; consequently this craft can not be totally watertight. Any maneuvers such as figure eights that cause the upper deck to be under water may cause severe engine problems due to water ingestion.

Refer to the SPECIAL PROCE-

DURES and LIMITED WARRANTY sections contained in this Operator’s

Guide .

– Respect no wake zones, the rights of other water users and the environment. As the “skipper” and owner of a boat, you are responsible for damage to other boats caused by the wake of your craft.

Do not let anyone throw refuse overboard.

– Between sunset and sunrise, use the sport boat's navigation lights and reduce speed. Do not operate the boat in reduced visibility.

– Do not add accessories or equipment that may adversely affect visibility or alter control of the sport boat.

– The skipper should personally take the helm during storms.

Before Getting Underway...

– Always perform the pre-operation checks as specified in this Operator’s Guide .

– Do not exceed the payload or passenger capacities for this sport boat, which are listed on the capacity plate and in the specifications.

Overloading can affect maneuverability, stability and performance.

Also, heavy seas reduce capacity. A payload or person capacity plate is not an excuse for failure to use common sense or good judgment.

– Regularly inspect the boat, the hull, engine, safety equipment, and all other boating gear and keep them in safe operating condition.

– Be sure you have the minimum required safety equipment, PFDs and any additional gear needed for your cruise.

– Check that all lifesaving equipment, including fire extinguisher, is in safe operating condition and easily accessible. Show all passengers where this equipment is, and make sure they know how to use it.

– Keep an eye on the weather. Check local weather broadcasts before departure. Be alert to changing conditions.

– Keep accurate and up-to-date charts of the boating area on board. Before getting underway, check water conditions in the planned boating area.

– Before departure, file a Float Plan with a responsible person ashore.

– Keep enough fuel on board for the planned trip. Always verify fuel level before use and during the ride. Apply the principle of 1/3 of the fuel to reach your destination, 1/3 to return, and keep 1/3 in reserve. Allow for changes due to adverse weather or other delays.

Operators and Passengers...

– Never operate a boat while under the influence of drugs or alcohol. It is a Federal offense. Allow only qualified drivers to operate your boat.

Remember that sun, wind, alcohol, drugs, fatigue or illness may impair your judgement and reaction time.

– At least one passenger should be able to operate the boat in case the operator is unexpectedly unable to do so.

– Operation of this craft by a person under 16 years of age or a person with a disability that impairs vision, reaction time, judgment, or operation of the controls is NOT recommended.

SAFETY INFORMATION 9

lmo2004-006a_safety.fm Page 10 Tuesday, August 12, 2003 1:40 PM

– Always use the lanyard stop switch when operating the boat and ensure that all passengers are familiar with its use.

– Ensure that any operator and all passengers know how to swim and how to re-board the sport boat from the water. If a passenger does not know how to swim, ensure that passenger wears a PFD at all times and take extra precautions when boating.

Regarding Fuel and Fueling...

– Remember that fuel and gasoline fumes are flammable and explosive under certain conditions. Be very careful when fueling and adhere to the fueling procedures contained in this Operator’s Guide and those given to you by the marina. Always stop the engine before fueling and never allow anyone to remain in the craft while fueling. Each time you fill up, assure that the engine compartment is free of gasoline vapors, and inspect fuel lines for leaks and hose deterioration.

– Do not smoke or allow open flames or sparks in the vicinity.

– Know the capacity of the fuel tank.

Avoid fueling at night except under well-lit conditions. Gas spills are not noticeable in the dark. Do not carry spare fuel or flammable liquids in any of the storage or engine compartments.

Safety Equipment

An operator and the craft's passenger(s) should have ready access to shatterproof glasses should riding conditions or personal preference warrant.

Wind, water spray and speed may cause a person's eyes to water and create blurred vision.

As the owner of the boat, you are responsible for assuring that all required safety equipment is aboard. You should also consider supplying additional equipment as needed for your safety and that of your passengers. Check state and local regulations and call the

U.S. Coast Guard Boating Safety Hotline at 1 800 368-5647 for information about required safety equipment.

Required Safety Equipment

Most of the safety equipment required by federal regulations is provided as standard equipment. Personal flotation devices must be fitted to the people wearing them. If local regulations require additional equipment, it must be approved by the U.S. Coast Guard

(USCG). Minimum requirements include the following:

– personal flotation devices

– fire extinguisher

– visual distress signal

– navigation lights

– bell or whistle.

A cellular telephone in a waterproof bag or container has also been found to be beneficial to boaters when in distress or just for contacting someone on shore.

Personal Flotation Devices (PFDs)

Federal regulations require that you have at least one Coast Guard approved personal flotation device (PFD) for each person in a recreational boat and require that all children under 13 years of age wear a PFD at all times when the boat is underway, except when below deck or in an enclosed cabin. You may not use your boat unless all PFDs are in serviceable condition, readily accessible, legibly marked with the Coast Guard approval number, and of an appropriate size (within the weight range and chest size marked on the PFD) for each person on board.

10 SAFETY INFORMATION

lmo2004-006a_safety.fm Page 11 Tuesday, August 12, 2003 1:40 PM

A PFD provides buoyancy to help keep your head above the water and to help you remain in a satisfactory position while in the water. Body weight and age should be considered when selecting a PFD. The buoyancy provided by the P FD should support your weight in water. The size of the PFD should be appropriate for the wearer.

Body weight and chest size are common methods used to size PFDs. It is your responsibility to ensure that you have the proper number and types of

PFDs on board to comply with federal and local regulations and that your passengers know where they are and how to use them.

PFD Types

Five types of PFDs have been approved by the U.S. Coast Guard.

PFD Type I, Wearable has the greatest required buoyancy. Its design allows for turning most unconscious persons in the water from face down position to a vertical or slightly backward, faceup position. It can greatly increase the chances of survival. Type I is most effective for all waters, especially offshore when rescue may be delayed. It is also the most effective in rough waters.

PFD Type II, Wearable turns its wearer in the same way as Type I, but not as effectively. The Type Il does not turn as many persons under the same conditions as a Type I. You may prefer to use this PFD where there is a probability of quick rescue such as in areas where other people are commonly involved in water activities.

F00A2DY

TYPE II — WEARABLE

PFD Type III, Wearable allows wearers to place themselves in a vertical or slightly backward position. It does not turn the wearer. It maintains the wearer in a vertical or slightly backward position and has no tendency to turn the wearer face down. It has the same buoyancy as a Type Il PFD and may be appropriate in areas where other people are commonly involved in water activities.

F00A2CY

TYPE I — WEARABLE

F00A2EY

TYPE III — WEARABLE

SAFETY INFORMATION 11

lmo2004-006a_safety.fm Page 12 Tuesday, August 12, 2003 1:40 PM

PFD Type IV, Throwable is required in addition to the PFDs previously discussed. The most common Type IV

PFD is a buoyant cushion or ring buoy.

It is designed to be thrown to a person in the water, grasped and held by the user until he or she is rescued. A Type

IV PFD should always be in serviceable condition and immediately available for use. Grasping this PFD may be difficult if the rescue is delayed or if the user is overcome by hypothermia (loss of body heat).

F00A2FY

TYPE IV — THROWABLE

PFD Type V, Wearable must be worn.

When inflated, it provides buoyancy equivalent to Type I, Il or III PFDs.

When it is deflated, however, it may not support some people.

F00A2GY

TYPE V — WEARABLE

PFD Pointers

The purpose of a PFD is to help save your life. If you want it to support you when you are in the water, it needs to fit, float, and be in good condition.

– Try the PFD on and adjust it until it fits comfortably in and out of the water. Mark your PFD if you are the only wearer.

– To make sure the PFD works, wear it in the water. This will show you how it works and give you confidence when you use it.

– Teach children how to put a PFD on and allow them to try it in the water.

That way, they know what the PFD is for and how it works. They will feel more comfortable with it if they suddenly find themselves in the water.

– If the PFD is wet, allow it to dry thoroughly before storing it. Do not dry it in front of a radiator or heater.

Store it in a well-ventilated area.

– Keep PFDs away from sharp objects which can tear the fabric or puncture the flotation pads.

– For their own safety and the safety of others, all non-swimmers, poor swimmers, and small children should wear PFD’s at all times whether the boat is stationary or moving.

– Check the PFD frequently to make sure that it is not torn, that flotation pads have no leaks, and that all seams and joints are securely sewn.

– If a PFD contains kapok, the kapok fibers may become waterlogged and lose their buoyancy after the vinyl inserts are punctured. If the kapok becomes hard or if it is soaked with water, replace it. It may not work when you need it.

Hypothermia

Hypothermia, the loss of body heat to the water, is a significant cause of deaths in boating accidents. After an individual has succumbed to hypothermia, he or she will lose consciousness and then drown.

PFDs can increase survival time because of the insulation they provide.

12 SAFETY INFORMATION

lmo2004-006a_safety.fm Page 13 Tuesday, August 12, 2003 1:40 PM

Naturally, the warmer the water, the less insulation one will require. When operating in cold water (below 40°F) consideration should be given to using a coat or jacket style PFD as they cover more of the body than the vest style PFDs.

Some points to remember about hypothermia protection:

1. While afloat in the water, do not attempt to swim unless it is to reach a nearby craft, fellow survivor, or a floating object on which you can lean or climb. Unnecessary swimming increases the rate of body heat loss. In cold water, drown-proof methods that require putting your head in the water are not recommended. Keep your head out of the water. This will greatly lessen heat loss and increase your survival time.

2. Keep a positive attitude about your survival and rescue. This will improve your chances of extending your survival time until rescue. Your will-to-live does make a difference!

3. If there is more than one person in the water, huddling is recommended while waiting to be rescued. This action tends to reduce the rate of heat loss and thus increase the survival time.

4. Always wear your PFD. It won't help you fight off the effects of hypothermia if you don't have it on when you go into the water.

Fire Extinguishers

As the owner of the boat, you are responsible for supplying a fire extinguisher approved by the U.S. Coast Guard.

All Class 1 powerboats (16 to less than

26 feet (4.8 - 7.9 m)) are required to carry one (1) B-1 type hand portable fire extinguisher unless the boat is equipped with a fixed fire extinguishing system in the engine compartment.

Hand-held portable fire extinguishers should be mounted in readily accessible locations away from the engine compartment. All persons aboard should know the location and proper operation of the fire extinguisher(s).

NOTE: Don't test fire extinguishers by squirting small amounts of the extinguishing compound. The extinguisher might not work when you really need it!

Visual Distress Signal Devices

Visual distress signal devices approved by the U.S. Coast Guard are required on all recreational boats operating on coastal waters and on boats owned in the United States when they are operating on the high seas. Coastal waters include territorial seas and those waters directly connected to the

Great Lakes and the territorial seas up to a point where the waters are less than two miles (3.2 km) wide. Visual distress signal equipment may be of the pyrotechnic or non-pyrotechnic type. Regulations prohibit display of visual distress signals on the water under any circumstances except when assistance is required to prevent immediate or potential danger to persons on board a vessel.

The equipment must be approved by the U.S. Coast Guard, be in serviceable condition, and be stowed in a readily accessible location. Equipment having a date for serviceable life must be within the specified usage date shown.

Careful selection and proper stowage of visual distress equipment is very important if children are aboard.

WARNING

Fire!

In case of fire, do not open engine compartment. Turn off engine. Using portable C02 fire extinguisher, continuously discharge entire contents at base of fire.

Carbon Monoxide and

Boating

Burning a material containing carbon produces carbon monoxide (CO), an odorless and colorless gas. Because

CO weighs the same as air, it can spread throughout an enclosed space unnoticed because you cannot see it or smell it. Any device used to burn carbon-based materials on a boat can be a source of CO. Common sources of CO include internal combustion engines.

CO reacts with the blood to reduce the ability of the blood to carry oxygen.

The reduced oxygen supply to body tissues results in death of the tissue.

Prolonged exposure can cause brain damage or death. In high concentrations, CO can be fatal within minutes.

The effects of CO in lower concentrations are cumulative and can be just as lethal over long periods of time.

Symptoms of CO poisoning include:

Itchy and watering eyes, flushed appearance, throbbing temples, inability to think coherently, ringing in the ears, tightness across the chest, headaches, drowsiness, nausea, dizziness, fatigue, vomiting, collapse, and convulsions. If any of these symptoms are evident, begin treatment immediately.

Prompt action can make the difference between life and death.

– Evacuate the area and move the victim to fresh air.

– Administer oxygen if available and get medical help.

– Open all canvas enclosures to ventilate the area.

– Investigate the source of CO and take immediate corrective action.

– Be especially aware of other CO sources which may be near boat.

SAFETY INFORMATION 15

lmo2004-006a_safety.fm Page 16 Tuesday, August 12, 2003 1:40 PM

Carbon Monoxide Accumulation

Following are examples of possible situations where CO may accumulate within your boat while docked, anchored, or underway. Become familiar with these examples and their precautions to prevent personal injury or death.

 WARNING

Exhaust Fumes!

Generator or hull exhaust from other vessels while either docked or anchored can emit poisonous CO gas and cause excessive accumulation within cabin and cockpit areas. Be alert for generator exhaust from your vessel or other vessels alongside. Exhaust outlets near a pier, dock, seawall or outlets blocked by any other means can cause excessive accumulation of poisonous CO gas within cockpit area.

F00A2HL

VESSEL ALONGSIDE

WARNING

Engine exhaust fumes contain carbon monoxide (CO) which can accumulate in and around the boat (under bimini top, in cockpit, etc.). CO can be harmful or fatal if inhaled. Assure there is adequate ventilation whenever running engine(s).

F00A2IL

WHILE UNDERWAY (BACKDRAFTING)

16 SAFETY INFORMATION

lmo2004-006a_safety.fm Page 17 Tuesday, August 12, 2003 2:11 PM

While underway, CO concentrations can increase by backdrafting or “the station wagon effect”. Backdrafting is caused by factors such as relative wind direction, speed, or the bow being too high. To prevent this, open canvas whenever possible to provide positive airflow through the hull.

Boat houses, seawalls, and other boats in close proximity or confined areas can contribute to increased CO levels. Operators must be aware that operation, mooring, and anchoring in an area with other boats puts them in jeopardy of CO accumulation from other sources. Likewise, a boat operator must be aware of how exhaust from his boat will affect others. Operation of the engines while moored may cause CO accumulation in your boat and those around you.

F00A2JL

CONFINED AREAS

Be sure to provide adequate ventilation. If the windshield has vents, open them before getting underway to increase positive air flow and decrease the chances of CO accumulation.

WARNING

Backdrafting!

Under certain conditions, moving air currents can direct poisonous CO fumes into boat. These fumes can accumulate to dangerous levels without proper airflow. Provide adequate ventilation, redistribute the load or bring boat out of high bow angle.

Even with the best boat design and construction, CO may still accumulate in enclosed or confined areas under certain conditions. Continually observe passengers for symptoms of CO poisoning.

CO Detector

It is strongly recommended that you have CO detectors installed in boats with canvas enclosures. Monitors are available from your dealer. Monitors should be professionally installed and calibrated.

NOTE: A CO detector is not a gas fuel vapor detector. Gas fuel vapor detectors do not monitor the buildup of CO in an enclosed area.

lmo2004-006a_safety.fm Page 18 Tuesday, August 12, 2003 1:40 PM

Lanyard Stop Switch

This safety device automatically stops the engine if the lanyard is attached to the operator and the operator falls from the control station. Refer to the engine manual for detailed information about using this switch.

The stop switch incorporates a shutoff switch, switch clip, lanyard, and lanyard clip. The lanyard clip must be securely attached to the operator’s PFD, clothing, arm, or leg. Be sure to attach the lanyard to a place where it is free of obstructions and to something that will move with the operator if he or she leaves the helm station. If the engine shuts down because this switch was activated, the clip must be reinstalled on the interrupter switch before the engine can be restarted.

F00A2KY

TYPICAL — IGNITION INTERRUPTER

(STOP SWITCH) WITH LANYARD

WARNING

Keep lanyard stop switch free from obstructions that could interfere with its operation. Do not modify or remove lanyard stop switch or bypass its safety features. The proper use of the lanyard stop switch can prevent a runaway boat situation which otherwise could cause severe personal injury or death.

Safe Boating Practices

YOU are responsible for your own safety, the safety of your passengers, and the safety of fellow boaters.

Drugs and Alcohol

Do not use drugs or drink alcohol while operating a boat. Like driving a car, driving a boat requires sober, attentive care. Operating a boat while intoxicated or under the influence of drugs is not only dangerous, but it is also a Federal offense carrying a significant penalty. These laws are vigorously enforced. The use of drugs and alcohol, singly or in combination, decreases reaction time, impedes judgment, impairs vision, and inhibits your ability to safely operate a boat.

WARNING

Alcohol consumption and boating do not mix! Operating under the influence endangers the lives of your passengers and other boaters. Federal laws prohibit operating a boat under the influence of alcohol or drugs.

Safe Operation

For safety reasons and proper care, always perform “Daily Pre-Operation

Checks” as specified in your Operator’s Guide before operating your craft.

Safe operation means that you do not misuse your boat nor do you allow your passengers to do so. Safe operation means using good judgment at all times. It includes, without limitation, the following actions:

– Load the boat within the limits listed on the capacity plate. Balance loads bow to stern and port to starboard.

– Maintain boat speed at or below the local legal limit. Avoid excessive speed or speeds not appropriate for operating conditions.

18 SAFETY INFORMATION

lmo2004-006a_safety.fm Page 19 Tuesday, August 12, 2003 1:40 PM

– Do not use the boat in weather or sea conditions beyond the skill or experience of the operator or the comfortable capability of the boat or passengers.

– Be sure at least one other passenger is familiar with the operation and safety aspects of the boat in case of an emergency.

– Make sure that passengers and gear do not obstruct the operator's view or ability to move.

– Do not exceed the maximum engine power rating stated on the certification plate attached to the boat.

– Observe all safety signs and warnings both inside the boat and in the immediate boating area.

Passenger Safety

Before getting underway, show all passengers where emergency and safety equipment is stowed, and explain how to use it. Everyone aboard should wear rubber-soled shoes which resist slipping on wet surfaces. While underway, passengers should remain seated inside the deck rails. Don't allow passengers to drag their feet or hands in the water. Always use handholds and other safety hardware to prevent falls. All non-swimmers, poor swimmers, and children should wear a

PFD at all times. Federal regulations require that children under 13 years of age wear a PFD when the boat is underway unless they are in an enclosed cabin or below deck.

First Aid

As a boat operator, you should be familiar with basic first aid procedures that may be needed while you are far from help. Fish hook accidents or minor cuts and abrasions may be the most serious mishaps on board a boat, but you should also learn the proper procedures and be ready to deal with the truly serious problems like excessive bleeding, hypothermia, and burns. First aid literature and courses are available through most Red Cross chapters.

Operation By Minors

Minors should always be supervised by an adult whenever operating a boat.

Many states have laws regarding the minimum age and licensing requirements of minors. Be sure to contact the state boating authorities for information. Bombardier recommends a minimum operator age of 16 years old.

Rules of the Road

As a responsible boater, you will comply with the “Rules of the Road”, the marine traffic laws enforced by the

U.S. Coast Guard. Navigating a boat is much the same as driving an automobile. Operating either one responsibly means complying with a set of rules intended to prevent accidents. Just as you assume other car drivers know what they are doing, other boaters assume you know what you are doing.

Operating a craft can be compared with driving unmarked highways and roads. To prevent collisions or avoid other boaters, a system of operating rules must be followed. It's not only common sense...it’s the law!

Check local and federal boating laws applicable to the waterways where you intend to use your craft. Learn the local rules of the road. Know and understand the applicable navigation system (such as buoys and signs).

SAFETY INFORMATION 19

lmo2004-006a_safety.fm Page 20 Tuesday, August 12, 2003 1:40 PM

Know the waters in which the craft is to be operated. Current, tides, rapids, hidden obstacles, wakes and waves etc. can affect safe operation. It is not advisable to operate the craft in rough or inclement weather.

Remember these Rules of the Road

Know the Right of Way Rules

Generally keep to your right and safely avoid other craft by keeping a safe distance from other craft, people and objects.

CROSSING

Give right of way to craft ahead and to your right. Never cross in front of a boat.

RED light (give way to the other boat).

GREEN light (you have the right of way).

MEETING HEAD-ON

Keep right.

PASSING

Give right of way to other craft and keep clear.

Navigation System

Navigational aids, such as signs or buoys, can help you identify safe waters. Buoys will indicate whether you should keep to the right (starboard) or to the left (port) of the buoy or to which channel you can continue. They may also indicate whether you are entering a restricted or controlled area such as a no wake or speed zone. They may also indicate hazards or pertinent boating information. Markers may be located on shore or on the water. They can also indicate speed limits, no power craft or boating, anchorage and other useful information. (The shape of each type of marker will provide assistance).

Make sure you know and understand the navigation system applicable to the waterways where you intend to use the craft.

Collision Avoidance

– Do not release throttle when trying to steer away from objects. You need throttle to steer.

– Always keep a constant lookout for other water users, other boats or objects, especially when turning.

Be alert for conditions that may limit your visibility or block your vision of others.

– Respect the rights of other recreationists and/or bystanders and always keep a safe distance from all other craft, people and objects.

– Do not wake or wave jump, ride the surf line or attempt to spray or splash others with your craft. You may misjudge the ability of the craft or your own driving skills and strike a boat or person.

– This craft has the capability of turning more sharply than other boats.

However, unless in an emergency, do not negotiate sharp, high speed turns. Such maneuvers make it hard for others to avoid you or understand where you are going. Also, you and/or your passenger(s) could be thrown from the craft.

– Like any other craft, this sport boat has no brake. Stopping distance will vary depending on initial speed, load, wind, and water conditions.

Practice stopping and docking in a safe, traffic free area to have an idea of how long it will take to stop the craft under varying conditions.

– Maintaining or increasing speed may be necessary to avoid a collision.

20 SAFETY INFORMATION

lmo2004-006a_safety.fm Page 21 Tuesday, August 12, 2003 1:40 PM

Safe Riding

– Always keep in mind that as the throttle lever is returned to idle position, less directional control is available, and when the engine is off, directional control is lost. You need throttle to steer.

– While your craft has the capacity of operating at high speeds, it is strongly recommended that high speed operation only be applied when ideal conditions exist and are permitted.

Higher speed operation requires a higher degree of skill and increases the risk of severe injuries.

– In shallow water, proceed with caution and at very low speeds. Grounding or abrupt stops may result in injury. Debris may also be picked up and be thrown rearward by the jet pump onto people or property.

– Do not use the craft’s reverse, if so equipped, to stop. You or your passenger(s) could be violently ejected forward or even off the craft onto the hazard.

Operator/Passenger Awareness

– Do not start or operate the craft if anyone is seated on the sun deck or swim platform, or is nearby in the water. Water and/or debris exiting jet thrust nozzle can cause severe injury.

– The operator and passenger(s) should be properly seated before starting or moving the craft. All passenger(s) should be instructed to use the handholds or seat straps provided.

– When accelerating a sport boat with a passenger(s), whether from a complete stop or while underway, always do so progressively. Fast acceleration may cause your passenger(s) to loose their balance or grip and strike something in the craft or fall out of the craft. Make sure that your passenger(s) know of, or anticipate, any rapid acceleration.

Maneuverability of the

Craft/Towing

– Do not overload the craft or take on more passengers than designated for the particular craft. Overloading can affect maneuverability, stability and performance.

– Avoid adding on accessories or equipment which may alter your control of the craft.

– Riding with a passenger(s) or pulling a tube, skier or wakeboarder makes the craft handle differently and requires greater skill.

– Always respect the safety and comfort of your passenger(s) and person being towed on skis, wakeboard or other water products.

– Always carry an observer when pulling a tube, skier or wakeboarder, proceed with only as much speed as required and follow the observer's instructions. Unless absolutely necessary, do not make tight, sharp turns.

Keep a safe distance from the docks, other swimmers, craft or objects.

– Use a tow rope of sufficient length and size and make sure it is adequately secured to your craft. Some sport boats are equipped or can be fitted with a specially designed towing mechanism. It can become a hazard should someone fall on it.

Don’t Forget:

– Ride smart from the start and we all win!

Voluntary Inspections

State boating officials in many states or the U.S. Coast Guard Auxiliaries offer courtesy inspections to check out your craft. They will check for compliance with safety standards and required safety equipment. You may voluntarily consent to one of these inspections, and you are allowed time to make corrections without prosecution. Check with the appropriate state agency or the Coast Guard Auxiliary for details.

SAFETY INFORMATION 21

lmo2004-006a_safety.fm Page 22 Tuesday, August 12, 2003 1:40 PM

Safe Boating Courses

The local U.S. Coast Guard Auxiliary and the U.S. Power Squadrons offer comprehensive safe boating classes several times a year. You may contact the BOAT/U.S. Foundation at 1 800

336-BOAT (2628) or, in Virginia, 1 800

245-BOAT (2628), for a course schedule in your area. Also contact the local

U.S. Coast Guard Auxiliary or Power

Squadron Flotilla for the time and place of their next scheduled class. A boating safety course is recommended and may be required in your province or state.

Water Sports

 WARNING

Avoid Personal Injury!

Your boat is not designed for and should not be used for pulling parasails, kites, gliders, or any device which can become airborne. Use boat only for appropriate water sports.

WARNING

“Teak Surfing” is extremely dangerous to participants due to their proximity to the rear of the boat where direct contact with the exhaust fumes from the boat engine is the highest. Carbon monoxide poisoning can occur and result in mental disorientation, dizziness, d ro w sin ess, a nd lo ss of co nsciousness. The combination of carbon monoxide exposure and non-use of a life jacket (PFD) make this new water recreation activity an incredibly dangerous and potentially deadly sport.

Water skiing, wakeboarding, or riding a towed, inflatable apparatus are some of the more popular water sports. Taking part in any water sport requires increased safety awareness by the participant and the boat operator. If you have never pulled someone behind your boat before, it is a good idea to spend some hours as an observer, working with and learning from an experienced driver. It is also important to be aware of the skill and experience of the person being pulled. Always have a second person on board to observe the person in the water so the driver can concentrate on operating the boat.

Both the boat operator and observer should monitor the location of the towrope when participating in watersports. A slack tow rope can become entangled with person(s) or objects in the boat or in the water, particularly when making a tight turn or circling, and cause serious personal injury.

Everyone participating in a water sport should observe these guidelines:

1. Allow only capable swimmers to take part in any water sport.

2. Always wear a personal flotation device (PFD) approved by the U.S.

Coast Guard. Wearing a properly designed PFD helps a stunned or unconscious person stay afloat. A

Type-IV water-ski vest is an approved and practical PFD.

3. Have a second person aboard to observe the person being towed and inform the driver about the participant’s hand signals. The driver must give full attention to operating the boat and the waters ahead.

4. Be considerate to others you share the water with.

5. Give immediate attention to a person who has fallen. He or she is vulnerable in the water alone and may not be seen by other boaters.

22 SAFETY INFORMATION

lmo2004-006a_safety.fm Page 23 Tuesday, August 12, 2003 1:40 PM

6. Approach a person in the water from the lee side (opposite the direction of the wind). Turn off the motor before coming close to the person.

7. Turn off engine and anchor the boat before swimming.

8. Participate in water sports only in safe areas. Stay away from other boats, channels, beaches, restricted areas, swimmers, and heavily traveled waterways and underwater obstructions.

9. Swim only in areas designated as safe for swimming. These are usually marked with a swim area buoy.

Do not swim alone or at night.

12. Shut engine off and remove ignition key when anyone is in the water nearby.

13. Stay at least 150 feet away from areas marked by a diver down float.

F00A2LY

SWIM AREA BUOY

10. Do not water ski between sunset and sunrise. It is illegal in most states.

11. Do not drive the boat directly behind a water skier, tuber or wakeboarder. At 25 miles per hour, the boat will overtake a person who falls in the water 200 feet in front of your boat in about 5 seconds.

F00A2MY

DIVER DOWN FLOAT

WARNING

Avoid Personal Injury!

Do not allow anyone near the jet pump or intake grate, even when the engine is off. Items such as long hair, loose clothing or personal flotation device straps can become entangled in moving parts resulting in serious injury or drowning. In shallow water, shells, sand, pebbles or other objects could be drawn up by the jet pump and be thrown rearward.

NOTE: An optional brake system is available for your trailer, see an authorized SEA-DOO sport boat dealer.

Take the following precautions when trailering the craft:

Tie the craft to both bow and stern

(front/rear) eyelets so that it is firmly retained on the trailer. Use additional tie-downs if necessary.

– Remove stern light (if installed).

– Ensure all storage compartment covers are properly latched.

– Ensure windshield door is securely locked in the closed position.

– A SEA-DOO cover can protect the craft, particularly before driving on dirt roads, to prevent dirt entry through the air intake opening(s).

Observe trailering safety precautions.

Principle of Operation

Propulsion

Engine is directly coupled to a drive shaft which, in turn, rotates an impeller. This impeller is accurately adjusted in a housing where the water is drawn up from underneath the craft. Then, the water flows through the impeller to a venturi. The venturi accelerates the water and produces thrust to move the craft. Pushing the throttle/ shift lever forward increase engine speed and therefore craft speed.

WARNING

Whenever an engine is to be started, the operator and passengers should always be sitting in the craft with the throttle/shift lever in neutral position.

Throttle/Shift Lever

FORWARD

The throttle/shift lever should be in the forward position in order for the craft to advance.

To obtain forward, depress throttle/ shift lever button then gradually push lever to increase craft speed.

NOTE: To obtain maximum efficiency and control from the reverse, increase engine speed to slightly above idle.

Too much RPM will create water turbulence and reduce reverse efficiency.

In reverse position, turn the steering wheel in the opposite direction that you want to move the rear of the craft.

For example, to steer the rear of the craft to the left side, turn the steering wheel to the right side.

Steering

Turning the steering wheel pivots the jet pump nozzle which controls the craft direction. Turning the steering wheel clockwise will turn the craft to the right and inversely.

Above idle speed, the throttle must be applied to turn the craft.

WARNING

Throttle must be applied and steering turned to change the direction of the craft at speed. Steering efficiency will differ depending on the number of passengers, load and water conditions.

A craft needs some throttle to turn.

Practice in a safe area applying the throttle and turning away from an imaginary object. This is a good collision avoidance practice.

Low-Speed Steering Control

System

Whenever the engine RPM is at IDLE

AND the steering wheel is approaching the end of its rotation, the engine speed will be slightly accelerated to increase the jet pump thrust. This helps steering control for low-speed navigation or when approaching/leaving a dock. For docking tips, refer to STOPPING/ DOCKING section below.

WARNING

Become fully familiar with this feature during your first ride and before carrying passengers.

Boarding from a Dock

As with any craft, boarding should be done carefully and engine should not be running.

POST-OPERATION CARE

WARNING

Allow engine to cool before performing any maintenance.

General Care

Should water be present in the bilge after use of bilge pump, unscrew the drain plug and tilt the craft to the rear in order to allow water to drain.

Wipe up any remaining fluid in the engine compartment (bilge, engine, etc.) with clean dry rags. This is particularly important in salt water use.

Remove the craft from the water every day to prevent marine organisms growth.

Additional Care for Foul

Water or Salt Water

When the craft is operated in foul water and particularly in salt water, additional care must be taken to protect the craft and its components. Rinse trailer and craft’s hull/bilge area with fresh water.

CAUTION: Failure to perform proper care such as: craft rinsing, cooling system flushing and anticorrosion treatment, when used in salt water, will result in damage to the craft and its components. Never leave the craft stored in direct sunlight.

Cooling System Flushing

General

Flushing the cooling system with fresh water is essential to neutralize corroding effects of salt or other chemical products present in water. It will help to remove sand, salt, shells or other particles in water jackets (engine, exhaust manifold, tuned pipe) and/or hoses.

Flushing should be performed when the craft is not expected to be used further the same day or when the craft is stored for any extended time.

WARNING

Perform this operation in a well ventilated area.

Flushing

1. Clean jet pump by spraying water in its inlet and outlet and then apply a coating of Bombardier lube lubricant or equivalent.

2. Open engine cover.

SPECIAL PROCEDURE

Engine Overheating

CAUTION: If the monitoring beeper continuously sounds, stop engine immediately .

Refer to M 2 Jet Drive Operator‘s Guide .

If engine still overheats, refer to an authorized SEA-DOO sport boat dealer for servicing.

Jet Pump Water Intake and

Impeller Cleaning

Weeds, shells or debris can get caught on the intake grate, drive shaft and/or impeller. A clogged water intake may cause troubles such as:

1.

Cavitation: Engine speed is high but craft moves slowly due to reduced jet thrust; jet pump components may be damaged.

2.

Overheating: Since the jet pump operation controls the flow of water to cool the engine, a clogged intake will cause the engine to overheat and damage engine internal components.

The clogged area can be cleaned as described in M 2 Jet Drive Operator‘s

Guide .

WARNING

Always remove safety lanyard cap from switch to prevent accidental engine starting before cleaning the jet pump area.

CAUTION: Avoid craft operation in weeded areas. If unavoidable, vary craft speed. Weeds tend to entangle more at steady and slow speeds. Inspect water intake grate for damage.

Refer to an authorized SEA-DOO sport boat dealer for repair as necessary.

Capsized Boat

The boat is designed so that it should not turn over easily due to its length and width. If the boat ever capsizes, remember that it will continue to float, and it is usually best to remain with it, you will be more easily located by others.

WARNING

When boat is capsized, do not attempt to restart the engine. Operator and passengers should always wear approved personal flotation devices.

Submerged Boat

WARNING

DO NOT attempt to restart engine.

Your Emission Control Warranty Rights and Obligations

The California Air Resources Board and Bombardier Motor Corporation of America

(“Bombardier”) are pleased to explain the emission control system warranty on your Model Year 2004 Sea-Doo sport boat equipped with a Rotax engine(s). In

California, new Sport Boat engines must be designed, built and equipped to meet the State’s stringent anti-smog standards. Bombardier must warrant the emission control system on your Sport Boat engine for the periods of time listed below provided there has been no abuse, neglect or improper maintenance of your Sport

Boat engine.

Your emission control system may include parts such as the fuel injection system, the ignition system and catalytic converter. Also included may be hoses, belts, connectors and other emission-related assemblies.

Where a warrantable condition exists, Bombardier will repair your Sport Boat’s

Rotax engine at no cost to you, including diagnosis, parts and labor, provided that such work is performed by an authorized Sea-Doo sport boat Dealer.

This emission limited warranty covers Model Year 2004 Sea-Doo sport boats equipped with a Rotax engine(s) certified and produced by Bombardier for sale in

California, that are originally sold in California to a California resident or subsequently warranty registered to a California resident. The Bombardier limited warranty conditions for Sea-Doo Sport Boats are still applicable to these models with the necessary modifications.

Select emission control parts of your 2004 Sea-Doo Sport Boat equipped with

Rotax engines(s) are warranted from the date of delivery to the first retail consumer for a period of 4 years, or for 250 hours of use, whichever occurs first.

The emission warranty covers damage to other engine components that is caused by the failure of a warranted part.

The Bombardier Operator’s Guide provided contains written instructions for the proper maintenance and use of your Sport Boat. All emission warranty parts are warranted by Bombardier for the entire warranty period of the Sport Boat, unless the part is scheduled for replacement as required maintenance in the Operator’s

Guide .

Emission warranty parts that are scheduled for replacement, as required maintenance, are warranted by Bombardier for the period of time before the first scheduled replacement date for that part. Emission warranty parts that are scheduled for regular inspection, but not regular replacement, are warranted by Bombardier for the entire warranty period of the Sport Boat. Any emission warranty part repaired or replaced under the terms of this warranty statement is warranted by

Bombardier for the remainder of the warranty period of the original part. All parts replaced under this limited warranty become the property of Bombardier.

Maintenance receipts and records should be transferred to each subsequent owner of the Sport Boat.

Owner’s Warranty Responsibilities

As the owner of a Sea-Doo Sport Boat equipped with a Rotax engine(s), you are responsible for the performance of the required maintenance listed in your Operator’s Guide . Bombardier recommends that you retain all receipts covering maintenance on your Rotax engine, but Bombardier cannot deny warranty solely for the lack of receipts or your failure to ensure the performance of all scheduled maintenance.

As the owner of a Sea-Doo Sport Boat equipped with a Rotax engine(s), you should however be aware that Bombardier may deny you warranty coverage if your Rotax engine(s) or a part has failed due to abuse, neglect, improper maintenance or unapproved modifications.

You are responsible for presenting your Rotax engine to an authorized Bombardier

Dealer as soon as a problem exists. The warranty repairs will be completed in a reasonable amount of time, not to exceed 30 days.

If you have any questions regarding your warranty rights and responsibilities or for the name and location of the nearest authorized Bombardier Dealer you should contact the Customer Assistance Center at 1-715-848-4957.
