The Yamaha Security System and Low RPM
Mode settings can be selected by operating
the remote control transmitter. (See page 27
for Yamaha Security System setting proce-
dures and page 34 for Low RPM Mode activa-
tion procedures.)
Since the watercraft is programmed to recog-
nize the internal code from this transmitter
only, the settings can only be selected with
this transmitter.
If you accidentally lose your remote control
transmitter or if it is not operating properly,
contact a Yamaha dealer.
When operating the watercraft, always keep
the transmitter with you, such as by storing itin the transmitter holder in the watertight stor-
age compartment, so that it is not lost.
NOTICE

completely waterproof. Do not sub-
merge the transmitter or operate it un-
derwater. If the transmitter is
submerged, dry it with a soft, dry cloth,
and then check that it is operating prop-
erly. If the transmitter is not operating
properly, contact a Yamaha dealer.
Keep the remote control transmitter
away from high temperatures and do not
place it in direct sunlight.
Do not drop the remote control transmit-
ter, subject it to strong shocks, or place
any heavy items on it.
Use a soft, dry cloth to clean the remote
control transmitter. Do not use deter-
gent, alcohol, or other chemicals.
Do not attempt to disassemble the re-
mote control transmitter yourself. Other-
wise, the transmitter may not operate
properly. If the transmitter needs a new

tial operation, and then the setting is selected.
To activate the Low RPM Mode:
Push the “L-Mode” (unlock) button on the re-
mote control transmitter for more than 4 sec-
onds. Once the beeper sounds three times
and the “UNLOCK” indicator light blinks three
times, then comes on, the “L-MODE” indicator
light comes on and the Low RPM Mode is ac-
tivated.
TIP:

Push the “L-Mode” (unlock) button on the re-
mote control transmitter for more than 4 sec-onds. Once the beeper sounds two times and
the “UNLOCK” indicator light blinks two times,
then comes on, the “L-MODE” indicator light
goes off and the Low RPM Mode is deactivat-
ed. When the Low RPM Mode is deactivated,
the watercraft returns to the normal operation
mode.
EJU37015No-wake mode
The no-wake mode is a function that main-
tains the engine speed at a fixed setting for
operating the watercraft at low speeds. This
function can be used only for forward opera-
tion of the watercraft.
TIP:
The no-wake mode can only be activated af-
ter 5 seconds have elapsed since starting the
engine.
Activating and deactivating the no-wake
mode
Activation of the no-wake mode will be con-
firmed by the number of beeps when the “NO-
WAKE MODE” switch is pushed, and by the
digital speedometer display of the multifunc-
tion information center. (See page 39 for infor-
mation on the multifunction information
center.)
