This watercraft is equipped with a remote
control transmitter 1 that is used to select
the security system and low-RPM mode set-
tings. Since the watercraft is programmed to
recognize the internal code from this trans-
mitter only, the security system setting can
only be changed with this transmitter. If you
lose the remote control transmitter or it does
not operate properly, contact a Yamaha
dealer.

The Yamaha Security System functions to
help prevent unauthorized use or theft of the

The normal mode and low-RPM mode
can only be selected when the engine is
stopped in the unlock mode. Press the
unlock button for more than 4 seconds to
select the normal mode or low-RPM mode.
Normal mode
If the beeper sounds twice, the normal
mode is activated.

low-RPM mode is activated and the
“L-MODE” indicator light 1 comes on.
Maximum engine speed (r/min) in the
low-RPM mode is limited to approximately
90% of the maximum engine speed in the
normal mode.
NOTE:@ If neither the start switch nor the remote
control transmitter is operated within
25 seconds after the unlock button is
pressed to select the unlock mode, the
multifunction meter display and the
“L-MODE” indicator light will go off. If this
occurs, press the lock button briefly to
select the lock mode, press the unlock
button briefly to select the unlock mode,
and then press the unlock button again for
more than 4 seconds to select the normal
mode or low-RPM mode.
While the engine is running, input from
the remote control transmitter is not
received.

operate when its buttons are pressed,
the battery may be low. Have a Yamaha
dealer replace the battery.
