EJU34680Replacing the fuses
The fuses are located in the electrical box.
To replace a fuse:
(1) Remove the cap on the electrical box.
(2) Replace the blown fuse with the spare
fuse of the correct amperage by using the
fuse puller on the reverse side of the cap.
WARNING
EWJ00800
Do not use fuses of higher amperage than
recommended. Substitution with a fuse
that has an improper rating can cause ex-
tensive electrical system damage and pos-
sible fire.
EJU34710Towing the watercraft
If the watercraft becomes inoperative in the
water, it can be towed to shore.
