EJU31384Yamaha Security System
The Yamaha Security System functions to
help prevent unauthorized use or theft of the
watercraft. The lock and unlock modes of the
security system can be selected by operating
the remote control transmitter that is included
with this watercraft. The engine cannot be
started if the lock mode of the security system
is selected. The engine can only be started if
the unlock mode is selected. (See page 25 for
information on the remote control transmitter.)
TIP:
The Yamaha Security System settings can
only be selected while the engine is stopped.
EJU37412Yamaha Security System settings
The Yamaha Security System settings will be
confirmed by the number of beeps when the
remote control transmitter is operated, and by
the “UNLOCK” indicator light of the dual ana-
log meter unit. (See page 35 for information
on the dual analog meter unit.)
TIP:

The beeper sounds two times for the nor-
mal operation mode or three times for the
Low RPM Mode. (See page 33 for Low
RPM Mode activation procedures.)

If the remote control transmitter is operated
while the dual analog meter unit is in the
standby state, the unit will perform the initial
operation, and then the setting is selected.To select the lock mode:
Push the lock button on the remote control
transmitter briefly. The beeper sounds once
and the “UNLOCK” indicator light blinks once,
then goes off. This indicates the lock mode is
selected.
To select the unlock mode:
Push the “L-Mode” (unlock) button on the re-
mote control transmitter briefly. The beeper
sounds two or three times and the “UNLOCK”
indicator light blinks two or three times, then
comes on. This indicates the unlock mode is
selected.

Dual analog meter unit
The dual analog meter unit displays various
watercraft information.
Dual analog meter unit initial operation
When the dual analog meter unit is activated,
the speedometer and tachometer make one
sweep, all of the display segments and indica-
tor lights come on. After 2 seconds, the
“WARNING” indicator light and the warning
indicators in the information display go off,
and then the unit starts to operate normally.
TIP:
The “UNLOCK” indicator light will go off when
the engine is started.
Dual analog meter unit standby state

any operation input within 25 seconds after
the engine stops, the unit will turn off and en-
ter a standby state. When the engine is start-
ed again, the displays return to their state
before the unit turned off, and then the unit
starts to operate normally.
EJU37441Speedometer
The speedometer shows the watercraft speed
against water.
The small outer numbers on the meter show
the watercraft speed in kilometers per hour
“km/h” and the large inner numbers show the
speed in miles per hour “MPH”.
EJU37242Tachometer
The tachometer shows the engine speed.
The inner numbers on the meter show the en-
gine speed × 1000 RPM (r/min).

maining fuel is shown using four display seg-
ments, which disappear one at a time as the
fuel level decreases.
TIP:
The accuracy of the fuel level meter varies de-
pending on the operating conditions. Use this
function as a reference only.
EJU37282Fuel level warning

about 18 L (4.8 US gal, 4.0 Imp. gal), the
“WARNING” indicator light, the fuel indicator,
and the lowest fuel level segment blink, and
the buzzer sounds intermittently.
If the fuel level warning is activated, refill the

maximum engine speed is limited.
If the oil pressure warning is activated, imme-
diately reduce the engine speed, return to
shore, and then check the engine oil level.
(See page 50 for information on checking the
engine oil level.) If the oil level is sufficient,
have a Yamaha dealer check the watercraft.

er.
EJU37301Engine overheat warning
If the engine temperature rises significantly,
the “WARNING” indicator light and the engine
overheat warning indicator blink, and the
buzzer sounds intermittently. Then, the
“WARNING” indicator light and the engine
overheat warning indicator stop blinking and
remain on, and the buzzer sounds continu-
ously. After the light and indicator start to blinkand the buzzer sounds, the maximum engine
speed is limited.
If the engine overheat warning is activated,
immediately reduce the engine speed, return
to shore, and then make sure that water is be-
ing discharged from the port (left) cooling wa-
ter pilot outlets while the engine is running. If
there is no discharge of water, stop the en-
gine, and then check the jet intake for clog-
ging. (See page 91 for information on the jet
intake.) NOTICE: If you cannot locate and
correct the cause of the overheating, con-
sult a Yamaha dealer. Continuing to oper-
ate at higher speeds could result in severe
engine damage.
