EJU34670Replacing the fuse
The fuse is located in the electrical box.
To replace the fuse:
(1) Remove the cap, and then pull out the
red lead to pull out the fuse holder from
the electrical box.
(2) Open the fuse holder and replace the
fuse with one of the correct amperage.
WARNING

Do not use fuses of higher amperage than
recommended. Substitution with a fuse
that has an improper rating can cause ex-
tensive electrical system damage and pos-
sible fire.
EJU34700Towing the watercraft
If the watercraft becomes inoperative in the
water, it can be towed to shore.
If the watercraft must be towed in an emer-
gency using a towline, the operator should
ride the watercraft, holding onto the handle-
bars and supporting his or her body weight on
the riding tray. This will help keep the bow of
the watercraft out of the water.
CAUTION:
ECJ00710
Tow the watercraft at 5 mph (8 km/h) or
less, otherwise water could enter the en-
gine through the exhaust passages or
through the air intake and flood the en-
gine compartment if it is towed too fast.
Tow the watercraft using the bow rope
hole only.
