Engine overheat warning
system
This model is equipped with an engine
overheat warning system.
If the engine starts to overheat, the warn-
ing light, the indicator for the water tempera-
ture symbol, and “W. T E M P” display begin to
blink, the buzzer sounds, and the engine
speed will be limited to about 3,400 r/min.
When this occurs, check for water dis-
charge at the cooling water pilot outlet. If
there is no discharge of water, reduce the
engine speed and beach the watercraft, and
then 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:@ If you cannot locate and correct the
cause of the overheating, consult a
Yamaha dealer. Continuing to operate at
higher speeds could result in severe
engine damage.
@
NOTE:@ Press any button on the multifunction meter
to stop the buzzer.

PADLOC (Programmable
digital locking ignition)
This feature is provided to deter unautho-
rized use.
The function allows you to choose either
“START” or “LOCK” mode, as the situation
requires, much as you would use an ignition
key in a motor vehicle. If you have previously
chosen “LOCK” mode, the engine will not
start unless the right code is put in to select
“START” mode.
NOTE:@ If you do not use the PADLOC system, it is
unnecessary to perform the initial setting of
the PADLOC. In this case, the “START”
mode is automatically selected.

nector 2 behind the front storage com-
partment.
2. After the warning light turns on, press
the “MODE” button for at least 3 seconds
until the display shows “COdE.” You are
ready to set your code.

3. Enter your four-letter code by pressing
the “A/SET,” “B,” or “C” buttons in the
right sequence.
NOTE:@ If you do not press a button for more than 10
seconds, the display automatically turns off.
This cancels the process of selecting the
mode.
@
4. If the code entered is correct, the mode
will change from the previous mode to
either “START” or “LOCK.” Then the
mode display and buzzer will operate for
2 seconds.
NOTE:@
Once you select a mode, the mode will
not change unless you perform this mode
selection sequence again.

If the wrong code is entered, the mode
display shows “ERROR” for 2 seconds
and the buzzer will sound 5 times. Then
the display returns to “COdE.”

“KM” on the display will blink.
NOTE:@ Measured distance may vary depending on
the water surface conditions, and wind direc-
tion. The measured distance should be used
for a reference.
