EJU31090Fuel tank filler cap
To remove the fuel tank filler cap, turn it coun-
terclockwise.
NOTE:
Make sure that the fuel tank filler cap is se-
curely closed before operating the watercraft.
EJU36270Remote control transmitter
The lock and unlock modes of the Yamaha
Security System are selected using the re-
mote control transmitter. (See “Yamaha Se-
curity System ” on page 33 for information on
using the remote control transmitter.)
CAUTION:
ECJ00930
The lock and unlock modes of the Yamaha
Security System can only be selected us-
ing the remote control transmitter. Ob-serve the following precautions to protect
your remote control transmitter:

Store the remote control transmitter
carefully so it will not be lost. When op-
erating the watercraft, use the transmit-
ter holder in the watertight
compartment. If you accidentally lose
your remote control transmitter, contact
a Yamaha dealer.

While the remote control transmitter has
been designed for use in wet environ-
ments, it should not be operated under-
water or submerged for an extended
length of time. If it gets wet, dry it with a
soft, dry cloth.

Keep the remote control transmitter
away from high temperatures and do not
place it in direct sunlight.

Do not drop the remote control transmit-
ter, subject it to strong shocks, or place
any heavy items on it.

Use a soft, dry cloth to clean the trans-
mitter. Do not use detergent, alcohol, or
other chemicals.

If the remote control transmitter needs a
new battery or is not operating properly,
contact a Yamaha dealer. Do not attempt
to replace the battery yourself.

Operation
56
Check that the battery leads are tightened se-
curely and that there is no corrosion on the
battery terminals.
WARNING
EWJ00450

The battery must always be fully
charged and in good condition. Loss of
battery power may leave you stranded.
Never operate the watercraft if the bat-
tery does not have sufficient power to
start the engine or if it shows any other
signs of decreased power.

Be sure to connect the breather hose to
the battery. Fire or explosion could re-
sult if the breather hose is damaged, ob-
structed, or not connected properly.
Make sure that the battery is securely held in
place.
EJU32580Fire extinguisher
Check that there is a full fire extinguisher on
board.
The fire extinguisher container is located in
the seat storage compartment.
To open the fire extinguisher container, turn
the cap counterclockwise.
To close the fire extinguisher container, insert
the fire extinguisher into the container, and
then install the cap and tighten it securely.
NOTE:

To check the fire extinguisher, see the in-
structions supplied by the fire extinguisher
manufacturer. Always keep the fire extin-
guisher in the fire extinguisher container.

Always carry a fire extinguisher on board. A
fire extinguisher is not standard equipment
with this watercraft. If you do not have one,

ride plate while pushing down on the gun-
wale with your right hand or foot.
NOTE:
If the port (left) side of the capsized watercraft
is tilting up, push down on the gunwale so that
the port (left) side is down before turning the
watercraft clockwise.
CAUTION:
ECJ00540
Do not turn the watercraft over counter-
clockwise, otherwise water can enter the
engine, which can result in severe dam-
age.
(3) Start the engine and operate the water-
craft to discharge any water remaining in
the engine compartment. (If the engine
does not start, see “Towing the water-
craft” on page 97 or “Submerged water-
craft” on page 97.)
CAUTION:
ECJ00550
Do not operate the engine at full throttle
for at least 1 minute after the engine has
been restarted. Excessive water in the
bilge can splash into the engine, which
can result in severe damage.
NOTE:
To efficiently discharge water from the engine
compartment, operate the watercraft as
straight as possible and above planing speed
for at least 2 minutes.
EJU33250Turning the watercraft
Steering control depends on the combination
of handlebar position and the amount of throt-
tle.
Water sucked in through the intake grate is
pressurized by the impeller in the jet pump. As
the pressurized water is expelled from the
pump through the jet thrust nozzle, it creates
thrust to move and steer the watercraft. The
higher the engine speed, the more thrust pro-
duced.
The amount of jet thrust, in addition to the po-
sition of the handlebars, determines how
sharply you turn.
A. More throttle produces higher thrust, so
the watercraft will turn more sharply.
