Safety information

EJU30683

The safe use and operation of this water-

craft is dependent upon the use of proper

riding techniques, as well as upon the

common sense, good judgment, and ex-

pertise of the operator. Before using this

watercraft, make sure that its use is per-

mitted under local laws, bylaws, and regu-

lations, and always operate the watercraft

in full conformity with any requirements

and limitations imposed. Every operator

should know the following requirements

before riding the watercraft.

Before operating the watercraft, read this

owner’s/operator’s manual, the Riding

Practice Guide, the Riding Instruction card,

and all labels on the watercraft. These ma-

terials should give you an understanding of

the watercraft and its operation.

Never allow anyone to operate this water-

craft until they too have read this own-

er’s/operator’s manual, the Riding Practice

Guide, the Riding Instruction card, and all

labels.

EJU30743

Limitations on who may

operate the watercraft

Make sure that the operator is 16 years of

age or older and has taken a boater safety

course.

Adults must supervise use by minors.

This watercraft is designed to carry the op-

erator and up to 2 passengers. Never ex-

ceed the maximum load limit or allow more

than 3 persons (or 2 persons if a wake-

boarder or water-skier is being pulled) to

ride the watercraft at any time.

Do not operate the watercraft with any pas-

sengers on board until you have consider-

able practice and experience riding alone.

Operating the watercraft with passengers

requires more skill. Take the time to be-

come accustomed to the handling charac-

teristics of the watercraft before trying any

difficult maneuvers.

Maximum load:

240 kg (530 lb)

Load is the total weight of cargo, op-

erator, and passengers.

Safety information

EJU43324

Cruising limitations

Scan constantly for people, objects, and

other watercraft. Be alert for conditions

that limit your visibility or block your vision

of others.

Operate defensively at safe speeds and

keep a safe distance away from people,

objects, and other watercraft.

Do not follow directly behind watercraft or

other boats.

Do not go near others to spray or splash

them with water, go too close to other

boats, or go too fast for the traffic condi-

tions.

Take early action to avoid collisions. Re-

member, watercraft and other boats do not

have brakes. In addition, the Reverse with

Intuitive Deceleration Electronics (RiDE)

system is not a braking device for avoiding

dangerous situations. The RiDE system is

an electronic system for controlling the en-

gine speed and reverse gate, which is lo-

cated near the jet thrust nozzle. The RiDE

lever located at the left handlebar grip can

be used to change the direction of the jet

thrust so that the watercraft moves in re-

verse or is in neutral. The RiDE system as-

sists the operator when slowing down and

during slow-speed maneuvering, such as

launching, beaching, and docking.

Avoid sharp turns, slowing down rapidly by

squeezing the RiDE lever forcefully, and

other maneuvers that make it hard for oth-

ers to avoid you or understand where you

are going.

Avoid areas with submerged objects or

shallow water.

Do not release the throttle lever when trying

to steer away from objects—as with other

powerboats, you need throttle to steer. Al-

ways check throttle and steering controls

before starting the watercraft.

Ride within your limits and avoid aggres-

sive maneuvers to reduce the risk of loss of

control, ejection, and collision.

This is a high performance boat—not a toy.

Avoid aggressive operation, sharp turns,

and unexpected acceleration that can

cause you to be thrown off. Do not jump

waves or wakes—jumping can cause inju-

ries such as back or spinal injuries (paraly-

sis), facial injuries, and broken legs, ankles,

and other bones. Improper operation can

result in severe injury or death.

Do not operate the watercraft in rough wa-

ter, bad weather, or when visibility is poor;

this may lead to an accident causing injury

or death. Be alert to the possibility of ad-

verse weather. Take note of weather fore-

casts and the prevailing weather

conditions before setting out on your wa-

tercraft.

As with any water sport, you should not op-

erate your watercraft without someone else

nearby. If you operate further than swim-

ming distance from shore, you should be

accompanied by another boat or water-

craft, but make sure you stay a safe dis-

tance away. It’s good, common sense.

Never operate in water that is less than 60

cm (2 ft) deep from the bottom of the wa-

Safety information

tercraft, otherwise you increase your

chance of hitting a submerged object,

which could result in injury.

This watercraft is not equipped with light-

ing required for night operation. Do not op-

erate the watercraft after sunset or before

dawn, otherwise you increase the risk of

colliding with another boat, which could re-

sult in severe injury or death.

Follow navigation rules, and state/provin-

cial and local laws that apply to watercraft.

EJU43131

Operation requirements

All riders must wear a personal flotation de-

vice (PFD) that is approved by the appro-

priate authorities and is suitable for

personal watercraft use.

Wear protective clothing. Severe internal

injuries can occur if water is forced into

body cavities as a result of falling into the

water or being near the jet thrust nozzle.

You must wear shorts with neoprene (wet-

suit material) to keep water from being

forcefully injected into the rectum or vagina

during a fall backward. Riders not wearing

neoprene shorts have received severe rec-

tal, vaginal, and internal injuries resulting in

permanent damage. Normal swimwear

does not offer adequate protection.

Eye protection is recommended to keep

wind, water, and glare from the sun out of

your eyes while you operate your water-

craft. Restraining straps for eyewear are

made which are designed to float should

your eyewear fall in the water.

Footwear and gloves are recommended.

You must decide whether to wear a helmet

while you ride for recreation. You should

know that a helmet could help protect you

Safety information

Scan carefully for swimmers and stay away

from swimming areas. Swimmers are hard

to see and you could accidentally hit some-

one 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

if you maneuver more quickly than other

boaters expect, you risk a collision.

Maintain a safe distance from other boats

and watercraft, and also watch for ski

ropes or fishing lines. Obey the “Safe boat-

ing rules” and be sure to check behind you

before making a turn or slowing down. (See

“Safe boating rules” on page 17.)

EJU30841

Recommended equipment

The following items should be carried on

board your watercraft:

Sound-signaling device

You should carry a whistle or other sound-

signaling device that can be used to signal

other boats.

Visual distress signals

It is recommended that a pyrotechnic de-

vice, which is approved by the appropriate

authorities, be stored in a waterproof con-

tainer on your watercraft. A mirror can also

be used as an emergency signal. Contact a

Yamaha dealer for more information.

Watch

A watch is helpful so you will know how

long you have been operating the water-

craft.

Towline

A towline can be used to tow a disabled

watercraft in an emergency.

Safety information

EJU42475

Hazard information

Never start the engine or let it run for any

length of time in an enclosed area. Exhaust

fumes contain carbon monoxide, a color-

less, odorless gas that may cause loss of

consciousness and death within a short

time. Always operate the watercraft in an

open area.

Do not touch the hot muffler or engine dur-

ing or immediately after engine operation;

they can cause serious burns.

Do not place magnets or objects with a

strong magnetic force near the throttle le-

ver or RiDE lever. The electronic throttle

mechanism of the levers can be adversely

affected, which could cause loss of control.

In addition, do not place objects suscepti-

ble to magnetic forces (i.e., credit cards,

watches, etc.) close to the throttle lever or

RiDE lever.

EJU42416

Watercraft characteristics

Jet thrust turns the watercraft. Releasing

the throttle lever completely produces only

minimum thrust. If you are traveling at

speeds above trolling, you will have rapidly

decreasing ability to steer without throttle.

This model is equipped with the Yamaha

Engine Management System (YEMS) that

includes an off-throttle steering (OTS) sys-

tem. 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 sharp-

ly if you apply throttle while turning the han-

dlebars.

The OTS system does not function below

planing speeds or when the engine is off.

Once the engine slows down, the water-

craft will no longer turn in response to han-

dlebar input until you apply throttle again or

you reach trolling speed.

Practice turning in an open area without

obstacles until you have a good feel for this

maneuver.

This watercraft is water-jet propelled. The

jet pump is directly connected to the en-

gine. This means that jet thrust will produce

some movement whenever the engine is

running and the “F” (forward) or “R” (re-

verse) shift indicator is displayed. When the

“N” (neutral) shift indicator is displayed, the

forward and reverse thrust are balanced to

help keep the watercraft from moving in ei-

ther direction, although some movement

may occur.

Safety information

To avoid rear-end collisions while operat-

ing the watercraft, check behind you be-

fore using the RiDE lever to slow down or

stop the watercraft. Make sure that there

are no obstacles or people behind you be-

fore shifting into reverse.

Keep away from the intake grate while the

engine is on. Items such as long hair, loose

clothing, or PFD straps can become entan-

gled in moving parts, resulting in severe in-

jury or drowning.

Never insert any object into the jet thrust

nozzle while the engine is running. Severe

injury or death could result from coming in

contact with the rotating parts of the jet

pump.

Stop the engine and remove the clip from

the engine shut-off switch before removing

any debris or weeds, which may have col-

lected around the jet intake.

Wakeboarding and water-

skiing

You can use the watercraft for wakeboarding

or water-skiing if it has the seating capacity to

carry the operator, a rearward-facing spotter,

and the wakeboarder or water-skier when he

or she is not being pulled.

The watercraft must also have a cleat de-

signed to pull a ski rope; do not attach the

rope to any other location.

It is the watercraft operator’s responsibility to

be alert to the safety of the wakeboarder or

water-skier and others. Know and follow all

local regulations in effect for the waters in

which you will be operating.

The operator should be comfortable carrying

passengers before attempting to pull a wake-

boarder or water-skier.

The following are some important consider-

ations for minimizing risks while pulling a

wakeboarder or water-skier.

The wakeboarder or water-skier should

wear an approved PFD, preferably a bright-

ly colored one so boat operators can see

the person being pulled.

The wakeboarder or water-skier should

wear protective clothing. Severe internal in-

juries can occur if water is forced into body

cavities as a result of falling into the water.

Normal swimwear does not adequately

protect against forceful water entry into the

rectum or vagina. The person being pulled

should wear a wetsuit bottom or clothing

that provides equivalent protection.

Enjoy your watercraft

responsibly

You share the areas you enjoy when riding

your watercraft with others and with nature.

So your enjoyment includes a responsibility

to treat these other people, and the lands,

waters, and wildlife with respect and courte-

sy.

Whenever and wherever you ride, think of

yourself as the guest of those around you.

Remember, for example, that the sound of

your watercraft may be music to you, but it

could be just noise to others. And the exciting

splash of your wake can make waves others

won’t enjoy.

Avoid riding close to shoreline homes and

waterfowl nesting areas or other wildlife ar-

eas, and keep a respectful distance from fish-

ermen, other boats, swimmers, and

populated beaches. When travel in areas like

these is unavoidable, ride slowly and obey all

laws.

Proper maintenance is necessary to ensure

that the exhaust emission and sound levels of

your watercraft will continue to be within reg-

ulated limits. You have the responsibility to

make sure that the recommended mainte-

nance in this owner’s/operator’s manual is

carried out.

Remember, pollution can be harmful to the

environment. Do not refuel or add oil where a

spill could cause damage to nature. Remove

your watercraft from the water and move it

away from the shoreline before refueling. Dis-

pose of water and any fuel and oil residue in

the engine compartment according to local

regulations. And keep your surroundings

pleasant for the people and wildlife that share

the waterways: don’t litter.

When you ride responsibly, with respect and

courtesy for others, you help ensure that our

waterways stay open for the enjoyment of a

variety of recreational opportunities.

ECJ01311

Do not run the engine over 4000 r/min on

land. Also, do not run the engine for more

than 15 seconds without supplying water,

otherwise the engine could overheat.

The engine start/stop switch (red button)

starts the engine when the switch is pushed

while the engine is stopped, and stops the

engine when the switch is pushed while the

engine is running.

Release the engine start/stop switch as soon

as the engine starts to run. If the engine does

not start in 5 seconds, release the engine

start/stop switch, wait 15 seconds, and then

try again.

The engine will not start under any of the fol-

lowing conditions:

Lock mode of the Yamaha Security System

has been selected. (See page 24 for

Yamaha Security System setting proce-

dures.)

Engine shut-off switch “ ”

The engine shut-off switch automatically

stops the engine when the clip, on the end of

the engine shut-off cord (lanyard), is removed

from the switch, such as if the operator falls

off the watercraft.

Insert the clip under the engine shut-off

switch before starting the engine.

When the engine is not running, remove the

clip from the engine shut-off switch to pre-

vent accidental starting or unauthorized op-

eration by children or others.

EJU43343

RiDE lever

When the RiDE lever is squeezed, the reverse

gate lowers and the watercraft starts moving

in reverse. If the watercraft is moving forward,

the watercraft gradually slows down until it

stops, and then the watercraft starts moving

in reverse.

When the RiDE lever is released, it automati-

cally returns to its fully closed (idle) position

and the reverse gate moves to the neutral po-

sition.

EJU31263

Steering system

By turning the handlebars in the direction you

wish to travel, the angle of the jet thrust noz-

zle is changed, and the direction of the water-

craft 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,

except 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.

EJU35975

Cooling water pilot outlet

When the engine is running, some of the

cooling water that is circulated in the engine

is discharged from the cooling water pilot

outlet.

1 Throttle lever

1 RiDE lever

1 Handlebar

2 Jet thrust nozzle

Control function operation

There is a cooling water pilot outlet on the

port (left) side of the watercraft. To check for

proper operation of the cooling system, make

sure that water is being discharged from the

cooling water pilot outlet. If water is not being

discharged from the outlet, stop the engine

and check the jet intake for clogging. (See

page 97 for information on the jet intake.)

TIP

It will take about 60 seconds for the water

to reach the outlet after the engine is start-

ed.

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.

EJU40323

Water 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 the

water 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.



 Make sure that there are no obstacles or

people behind you before shifting into

reverse.



 Do not touch the reverse gate while the

RiDE lever is being operated, otherwise

you could be pinched.



 If the RiDE lever and throttle lever are

being operated at the same time, do not

release only the RiDE lever. Otherwise,

the watercraft could accelerate more

quickly than expected, which may lead

to an accident.

The RiDE lever and throttle lever can be oper-

ated to change the forward or rearward

movement of the watercraft only when the

engine is running. When the RiDE lever is

squeezed, the reverse gate lowers and de-

flects the water jet being discharged from the

jet thrust nozzle so that the watercraft moves

in reverse or is in neutral. When the throttle le-

ver is squeezed, the reverse gate rises and

the watercraft moves forward.

TIP

This model is equipped with a function

which limits the engine speed in reverse.

When the engine is started, the reverse

gate automatically moves to the neutral po-

sition.

To shift into reverse:

(1) Release the throttle lever.

(2) Squeeze the RiDE lever. The reverse

gate will lower, the engine speed will in-

crease, the watercraft will start moving in

reverse, and the “R” (reverse) shift indi-

cator will be displayed.
