Submerged watercraft
If the watercraft is submerged or flooded
with water, follow the procedure below and
consult a Yamaha dealer as soon as possi-
ble. Failure to do so may result in serious
engine damage!
In an emergency:
1. Beach the watercraft and remove the
stern drain plugs to drain the water from
the engine compartment. (See page 3-9
for further instructions.) Remove the
storage compartment drain plugs to
drain the water from the storage com-
partments.
2. Install the stern drain plugs and storage
compartment drain plugs.
3. Disconnect the spark plug caps, and
then remove the spark plugs.
CAUTION:@ Do not connect the spark plugs to the
spark plug caps.
@
4. Disconnect the fuel injector couplers.
CAUTION:@ Cover the disconnected fuel injector cou-
plers so that they do not get wet. If the
couplers get wet, they could corrode,
which could lead to poor connections.
@
5. Crank the engine for 5 seconds at wide
open throttle. Repeat this step until all of
the water in the cylinders has been
expelled.
6. Spray a rust inhibitor into each spark
plug hole for 5 seconds.
7. Crank the engine for 5 seconds at wide
open throttle. Repeat this step several
times.

couplers.
9. Have the watercraft inspected by a
Yamaha dealer as soon as possible.
CAUTION:@ Be sure to have a Yamaha dealer inspect
the watercraft. Otherwise, serious engine
damage could result.
