EJU31384Yamaha Security System
The Yamaha Security System functions to
help prevent unauthorized use or theft of the
watercraft. The lock and unlock modes of the
security system can be selected by operating
the remote control transmitter that is included
with this watercraft. The engine cannot be
started if the lock mode of the security system
is selected. The engine can only be started if
the unlock mode is selected. (See page 25 for
information on the remote control transmitter.)
TIP:
The Yamaha Security System settings can
only be selected while the engine is stopped.
EJU37412Yamaha Security System settings The Yamaha Security System settings will be
confirmed by the number of beeps when the
remote control transmitter is operated, and by
the “UNLOCK” indicator light of the dual ana-
log meter unit. (See page 35 for information
on the dual analog meter unit.)
TIP:
●The beeper sounds two times for the nor-
mal operation mode or three times for the
Low RPM Mode. (See page 33 for Low
RPM Mode activation procedures.)
●If the remote control transmitter is operated
while the dual analog meter unit is in the
standby state, the unit will perform the initial
operation, and then the setting is selected. To select the lock mode:
Push the lock button on the remote control
transmitter briefly. The beeper sounds once
and the “UNLOCK” indicator light blinks once,
then goes off. This indicates the lock mode is
selected.
To select the unlock mode:
Push the “L-Mode” (unlock) button on the re-
mote control transmitter briefly. The beeper
sounds two or three times and the “UNLOCK”
indicator light blinks two or three times, then
comes on. This indicates the unlock mode is
selected.

will not start. Also, the starter motor could
be damaged.
[ECJ01040]
The engine will not start under any of the fol-
lowing conditions:
●Lock mode of the Yamaha Security System
has been selected. (See page 26 for
Yamaha Security System setting proce- dures.)
●Clip is removed from the engine shut-off
switch.
●Throttle lever is squeezed.EJU31211Throttle lever
The throttle lever increases the engine speed
when the lever is squeezed.
The throttle lever returns automatically to its
fully closed (idle) position when released.
EJU31261Steering system
By turning the handlebars in the direction you
wish to travel, the angle of the jet thrust nozzle
is changed, and the direction of the watercraft
is changed accordingly.
Since the strength of the jet thrust determines
the speed and degree of a turn, throttle must
always be applied when attempting a turn, ex-
cept at trolling speed.
This model is equipped with the Yamaha En-
gine Management System (YEMS) that in-
cludes an off-throttle steering (OTS) system.
It will activate at planing speeds should you
attempt to steer the watercraft after releasing
the throttle lever. The OTS system assists in
turning by continuing to supply some thrust
while the watercraft is decelerating, but you
can turn more sharply if you apply throttle
while turning the handlebars. The OTS sys-
tem does not function below planing speeds
or when the engine is off. Once the engine
slows down, the watercraft will no longer turn

in response to handlebar input until you apply
throttle again or you reach trolling speed.
EJU37341Telescopic steering system
The position of the handlebars can be adjust-
ed up or down by operating the lock lever.
The handlebars can be adjusted to three po-
sitions.
To adjust the handlebar position:
(1) Pull the lock lever up to disengage thehandlebar lock, and then move the han-
dlebars up or down to the desired posi-
tion. WARNING! Never pull the lock
lever during operation, otherwise the
handlebars may suddenly change po-
sition, which may lead to an accident.
[EWJ01270]
(2) Make sure that the lock lever returns to its original position and that the handlebars
are securely locked in place.
EJU41800Cooling water pilot outlets
When the engine is running, some of the cool-
ing water that is circulated in the engine is dis-
charged from the cooling water pilot outlets.
There are cooling water pilot outlets on the
port (left) and starboard (right) sides of the
watercraft. To check for proper operation of
the cooling system, make sure that water is
being discharged from the port (left) pilot out-
let. If water is not being discharged from the
outlet, stop the engine and check the jet in-
take for clogging. (See page 90 for informa-
tion on the jet intake.)
TIP:
●It will take about 60 seconds for the water to
reach the outlets after the engine is started.

●Water discharge may not be constant when
the engine is running at idling speed. If this
occurs, apply a little throttle to make sure
that water discharges properly.
EJU40322Water separator
The water separator prevents water from en-
tering the fuel tank by collecting any water that
has entered the fuel tank breather hose if the
watercraft was capsized.
If water has collected in the water separator,
drain it by loosening the drain screw.
To drain water from the water separator:
(1) Place a drain pan or dry cloth under thewater separator.
(2) Gradually loosen the drain screw to drain the water. Catch the draining water in the
drain pan or soak it up with the dry cloth
so that it does not spill into the engine
compartment. If any water spills into the watercraft, be sure to wipe it up with a dry
cloth.
(3) Securely tighten the drain screw until it stops.

EJU37182Reverse system
WARNING
EWJ01230
●Do not use the reverse function to slow
down or stop the watercraft as it could
cause you to lose control, be ejected, or
impact the handlebars.
●Make sure that there are no obstacles or
people behind you before shifting into
reverse.
●Do not touch the reverse gate while the
shift lever is being operated, otherwise
you could be pinched.
When the shift lever is moved to the reverse
position, the reverse gate lowers and deflects
the water jet being discharged from the jet
thrust nozzle. This allows the watercraft to
move in reverse.
To shift into reverse:
(1) Release the throttle lever and let the en-
gine speed return to idle.
(2) Pull the shift lever rearward until it stops in the reverse position. The reverse gate will lower and the watercraft will start
moving in reverse at trolling speed.
TIP:
This model is equipped with a function which
limits the engine speed in reverse.
To shift into forward:
(1) Release the throttle lever and let the en-
gine speed return to idle.
(2) Push the shift lever forward until it stops in the forward position. The reverse gate
will rise and the watercraft will start mov-
ing forward at trolling speed.

EJU42640Quick Shift Trim System (Q.S.T.S.)
The Q.S.T.S. selector is integrated with the
left handlebar grip and is operated to change
the vertical angle of the jet thrust nozzle,
which adjusts the trim angle of the watercraft.
There are 5 positions: neutral, 2 bow-down
positions (a) and (b), and 2 bow-up positions
(c) and (d).
Bow-down positions (a) and (b)
The bow will go down, causing the trim angle
to decrease.
Vertical movement of the bow will be reduced
and the watercraft will get up on plane more
quickly when accelerating.
Bow-up positions (c) and (d)
The bow will go up, causing the trim angle to
increase.
There is less water resistance, therefore,
straight-ahead acceleration is enhanced.
TIP:
The watercraft performance characteristics
according to the trim angle change depending
on the operating conditions.
To change the trim angle:
(1) Reduce engine speed to less than 3000r/min.
(2) Squeeze the Q.S.T.S. selector lock lever, and then turn the Q.S.T.S. selector to the
desired position. NOTICE: Do not turn
the Q.S.T.S. selector while operating
the watercraft at an engine speed of
