BREAK-IN PERIOD
Engine
Sea-Doo sport boats powered by Rotax engine require, a break-in period before operating the engine at full throttle. We recommend about 10 operating hours.
During this period, maximum throttle should not exceed 3/4 , however, brief full acceleration and speed variations contribute to a good break-in. Continued wide open throttle accelerations, prolonged cruising speeds and overloading the engine is (are) detrimental during the break-in period.
To assure additional protection during the initial break-in period, it is recommended to add 2 liters (1/2 gal) of
BOMBARDIER-ROTAX Formula XP-S synthetic injection oil (or equivalent high quality synthetic oil) in the fuel tank. The oil should be added for the first full fuel tank filling only.
To add injection oil in the fuel tank, proceed as follows:
Fill fuel tank with approximately 50 liters (12 gal) of gasoline; then, add the required quantity of injection oil in the fuel tank.
NOTE: It is important to proceed in this order to allow a proper mixing of the oil in the gasoline. If oil is added first in an empty fuel tank, fuel lines will be filled up with injection oil leading in a no start condition of the engine.
CAUTION: Remove and clean spark plugs after engine break-in.
10-Hour Inspection
It is highly recommended that after the first 10 hours of operation, the sport boat be checked by an authorized dealer. This inspection will also provide the opportunity to discuss any unanswered questions you may have encountered during the first hours of operation.
The 10-hour inspection is at the expense of the sport boat owner.
