Doin’it on your new Sea-Doo Watercraft

Congratulations, you are now the proud owner of a Sea-Doo personal watercraft.

Whether you are an experienced boater or are new to the sport of boating, we

ask you to take the time to view the Videocassette provided with the watercraft,

to read this Operator’s Guide, the Safety Handbook and on-product warning/caution

labels and familiarize yourself with the contents. These guides contain pertinent

information which, if followed, will provide you with the necessary knowledge to

help you fully enjoy the pleasures of this craft.

We strongly recommend that any watercraft operator complete a safety boating

course. Check with your local Coast Guard or Power and Sail Squadron in your

area for course availability. More serious boaters may want to obtain Chapman

Piloting by Elbert S. Maloney, available at most book stores.

When introducing your family or friends to the sport, be sure they fully understand

the controls and operation of the watercraft and the importance of courteous,

responsible riding.

Each operator has a responsibility to ensure the safety of his/her passenger and

of other water users. Please follow all safety instructions and operate your craft

with care.

We encourage you to have an Annual Safety Inspection of your watercraft. Please

contact your dealer for further details.

Finally, we urge you to visit your dealer regularly for regular and safety mainte-

nance as well as any craft accessories you may require.

Have fun and... Bon Voyage.

PLEASE KEEP THIS GUIDE AND SAFETY HANDBOOK ON BOARD. THESE

MANUALS SHOULD REMAIN WITH THE CRAFT AT TIME OF RESALE.

FOREWORD

The Operator’s Guide and Safety

Handbook have been prepared to ac-

quaint the owner/operator or passen-

ger with this personal craft and its var-

ious controls, maintenance and safe

riding instructions. Each is indispens-

able for the proper use of the product,

and should be kept in a waterproof bag

with the craft at all times.

Make sure you read and understand

the content of each document.

For any questions pertaining to the

warranty and its application, consult

the WARRANTY section in this guide,

and/or an authorized SEA-DOO dealer.

This guide uses the following symbols

to emphasize particular information.

CAUTION: Denotes an instruction

which, if not followed, might dam-

age the craft and/or components.

NOTE: Indicates supplementary infor-

mation needed to fully complete an in-

struction.

Although the mere reading of such in-

formation does not eliminate the haz-

ard, the understanding and application

of the information will promote its cor-

rect use.

The information and components/

system descriptions contained in this

guide are correct at the time of publica-

tion. Bombardier Inc. however, main-

tains a policy of continuous improve-

ment of its products without imposing

upon itself any obligation to install them

on products previously manufactured.

Because of our ongoing commitment

to product quality and innovation, Bom-

bardier Inc. reserves the right at any

time to discontinue or change specifi-

cations, designs, features, models or

equipment without incurring obliga-

tion.

The illustrations in this document show

the typical construction of the different

assemblies and may not represent the

full detail or exact shape of the parts.

However, they represent parts that

have the same or similar function.

It is understood that this guide may be

translated into another language. In

the event of any discrepancy, the En-

glish version shall prevail.

Specifications are given in the SI metric

system with the SAE U.S. equivalent in

parenthesis. Where precise accuracy

is not required, some conversions are

rounded off for easier use.

 SAFETY MEASURES

General

To fully appreciate the pleasures,

enjoyment and excitement of boat-

ing there are some basic rules that

should be observed and followed by

any boater. Some rules may be new

to you or covered in the PWC/Sport

boat Safety Handbook or Safety Vid-

eo, others may be common sense

or obvious… irrespective, we ask

that you please take a few minutes

of your time to read these safety in-

structions completely before you

operate your craft. Failure to fol-

low this safety information and

safe boating rules could result in

injury, including the possibility of

death to you, your passenger(s),

or other water users.

Bombardier recommends not to op-

erate under 16.

Become completely familiar with

the controls and operation of the

craft before embarking on your first

trip or taking on a passenger(s). If

you have not had the opportunity to

do so with your dealer, practice driv-

ing solo in a suitable area and feel

the response of each control. Be ful-

ly familiar with all controls before

advancing the throttle above idle

speed. As its operator, you control

and are responsible for the craft’s

safe operation.

Operation

Always perform the pre-operation

checks as specified in this guide.

Always keep in mind that as the

throttle lever is released to idle posi-

tion, less directional control is avail-

able. To turn the craft, both steer-

ing and throttle are necessary.

The forces generated on the body of

riders while turning, negotiating

waves or wakes, operating in chop-

py waters, or falling off the water-

craft, especially at higher speeds,

may cause injury including the pos-

sibility of broken legs and other

bones. Remain flexible and avoid

sharp turns. Never place your feet

and legs in the water to aid turning.

This craft has no brake. Stopping

distance will vary depending on ini-

tial speed, load, wind, and water

conditions. Practice stopping and

docking in a safe, traffic free area to

have an idea of how long it will take

to stop the craft under varying con-

ditions.Do not release throttle

when trying to steer away from

objects. You need throttle to stear.

Do not use the craft’s reverse, if so

equipped, to stop.

Ensure that all passengers know

how to swim and how to reboard

the craft from the water.

The operator and passenger(s)

should be properly seated and

wearing an approved PFD before

starting or moving the craft.

Do not start or operate the craft if a

person(s) is seated on the sun deck

or swim platform, or are nearby in

the water.

The craft’s jet thrust can cause inju-

ry. Always accelerate slowly.

To prevent accidental starting, al-

ways detach the safety lanyard

from the craft when swimmers are

boarding or nearby, or during re-

moval of any weeds or debris from

the intake grate.

Smo2001-001a.book Page 6 Tuesday, May 23, 2000 2:18 PM

www.SeaDooManuals.net

Riding with a passenger(s) or pulling

other boats, tubes, skies or wake-

boards makes the craft handle differ-

ently and requires greater skill. Do

not overload the craft or take on

more passengers than designated

for the particular craft. Overloading

can affect maneuverability, stability

and performance. Avoid adding on

accessories, or equipment which

may alter your control of the craft.

The craft may be fitted with tow eye-

lets which can be used to attach a ski

rope. However, do not use these

eyelets or the craft’s cleats to tow a

parasail. Severe craft damage may

occur.

In shallow water, proceed with cau-

tion and at very low speeds. Ground-

ing or abrupt stops may result in in-

jury. Debris may also be picked up

and be thrown rearward by the jet

pump onto people or property.

Respect no wake zones, the rights

of other water users and the envi-

ronment. As the “skipper”and

owner of a craft you are responsible

for damage to other boats caused

by the wake of your craft. Allow no

one to throw refuse overboard.

Remember, gasoline fumes are in-

flammable and explosive. Always

adhere to the fueling procedure

contained in this guide and those

given to you by the marina. Always

verify fuel level before use and dur-

ing the ride. Apply the principle of

1/3 fuel to destination, 1/3 back and

1/3 reserve fuel supply. Do not carry

spare fuel or inflammable liquids in

any of the storage or engine com-

partments.

Combustion engine needs air to op-

erate; consequently this craft can

not be totally watertight. Any man-

ouvers such as figure eights etc.,

that cause the upper deck to be un-

der water may cause severe engine

problems due to water ingestion.

Refer to SPECIAL PROCEDURES

and Limited Warranty contained in

this guide.

Due to the close proximity of other

racers. It is recommended that an

approved personal watercraft hel-

met be used during racing events.

Read and follow all instructions and

warnings provided with the helmet.

Maintenance

Only perform servicing procedures

which are detailed in this guide. Fur-

ther assistance or information can

be obtained from your dealer. In

many instances proper tools and

training is required for certain ser-

vicing or repair procedures.

Maintain the craft and equipment in

top condition at all times. Adhere to

the prescribed maintenance sched-

ules. An annual inspection of the

craft is always a good recommenda-

tion that should be followed.

Always use spark plug cable ground-

ing device when removing spark

plugs.

The bilge must be kept clean of oil,

water or other foreign materials.

Do not attempt to lift the craft with-

out special equipment and training.

The engine and the corresponding

components identified in this guide

should not be utilized on product(s)

other than for those they were de-

signed. Maintenance procedures

and specified tightening torque

must be strictly adhered to. Never

attempt repairs unless the appropri-

ate tools are available. These water-

craft are designed with parts dimen-

sioned in both the metric and the

imperial systems. When replacing

fasteners, make sure to use only

those recommended by Bombar-

dier. If required, contact your dealer

for further servicing information.
