Do not attempt to modify this watercraft!
Modifications to your watercraft may
reduce safety and reliability, and render
the watercraft unsafe or illegal for use.
Attach the engine shut-off cord (lanyard)
to wrist and keep it free from the handle-
bars so that the engine stops if the opera-
tor falls off. After riding, remove the
engine shut-off cord from the watercraft to
avoid accidental starting or unauthorized
use by children or others.
Scan carefully for swimmers and stay
away from swimming areas. Swimmers
are hard to see and you could acciden-
tally hit someone in the water.
Avoid being hit by another boat! You
should always take the responsibility to
watch for traffic; other boaters may not be
watching for you. If they do not see you,
or you maneuver more quickly than other
boaters expect, you risk a collision.
Maintain a safe distance from other boats
or watercraft, and also watch for boats’ ski
ropes or fishing lines. Obey the “Safe
boating rules” and be sure to check
behind you before making a turn. (See
Safe boating rules on page 1-16.)

Engine overheat warning
system
This model is equipped with an engine
overheat warning system.
If the engine starts to overheat, the warn-
ing light and the engine overheat warning
indicator begin to blink, and the buzzer
sounds intermittently.
When this occurs, reduce the engine
speed and beach the watercraft. Check for
water discharge. If there is no discharge of
water at the cooling water pilot outlet, whole
the engine is running, check the intake grate
and impeller for clogging.
WARNING@ Before attempting to remove weeds or
debris from the intake grate or impeller,
shut the engine off and remove the clip
from the engine shut-off switch. Severe
injury or death could result from coming
in contact with the rotating parts of the
jet pump.
@
CAUTION:@ This watercraft is equipped with a cata-
lytic converter.
Return to shore at low speed if over-
heat warning indicator and buzzer
come on. If you ignore these signals,
engine will stop running and cannot be
restarted until exhaust system cools
down.
Have your watercraft inspected and
serviced by a Yamaha dealer if engine
stops due to overheating.

If the engine starts to overheat, the warn-
ing light and engine overheat warning indi-
cator begin to blink, and the buzzer sounds
intermittently.
If the watercraft continues to be operated
at higher speeds after the warning system
has been activated, the warning light,
engine overheat warning indicator and the
buzzer will change from intermittently to
continuously on. (See “Engine overheat

details.)
The warning signals will turn off when the
engine is started after it has cooled down.
NOTE:@ When the warnings overlap each other, their
priority is as follows:
1. Final overheat warning
2. Fuel level warning
3. Oil level warning
4. Initial overheat warning
5. Exhaust temperature warning
6. Check engine warning
