Launching the watercraft
When launching the watercraft, make
sure that there are no obstructions around
you.
If there are waves, someone should make
sure that the watercraft is not pushed into
the trailer after launching the watercraft.

For VX110 Deluxe
Use the remote control transmitter to
select the unlock mode. (See page 2-16
for Yamaha Security System and
low-RPM mode selection procedures.)
After the watercraft is in the water, start
the engine. Shift into reverse and slowly
move away from the launching area.

For VX110 Sport
After the watercraft is in the water, turn it
around so the bow faces the direction you
want to go. Start the engine, and then
slowly move away from the launching
area.
