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 26 for
information on the remote control transmitter.)
TIP:
The Yamaha Security System settings can
only be selected while the engine is stopped.
EJU36775Yamaha 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 multifunc-
tion information center. (See page 40 for infor-
mation on the multifunction information
center.)
TIP:
●The beeper sounds two times for the nor-
mal operation mode or three times for the
Low RPM Mode. (See page 35 for Low
RPM Mode activation procedures.)
●If the remote control transmitter is operated
while the multifunction information center is
in the standby state, the center will performthe 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.

TIP:
If the remote control transmitter is operated
while the multifunction information center is in
the standby state, the center performs the ini-
tial operation, and then the setting is selected.
To activate the Low RPM Mode:
Push the “L-Mode” (unlock) button on the re-
mote control transmitter for more than 4 sec-
onds. Once the beeper sounds three times
and the “UNLOCK” indicator light blinks three
times, then comes on, the “L-MODE” indicator
light comes on and the Low RPM Mode is ac-
tivated.
TIP:
If the Low RPM Mode is activated immediate-
ly after the information display turns off, the
“L-MODE” indicator light will not come on. The
“L-MODE” indicator light will come on when
the engine is started.
To deactivate the Low RPM Mode:
Push the “L-Mode” (unlock) button on the re-
mote control transmitter for more than 4 sec-onds. Once the beeper sounds two times and
the “UNLOCK” indicator light blinks two times,
then comes on, the “L-MODE” indicator light
goes off and the Low RPM Mode is deactivat-
ed. When the Low RPM Mode is deactivated,
the watercraft returns to the normal operation
mode.
EJU42480No-wake mode
The no-wake mode is a function that main-
tains the engine speed at a fixed setting for
operating the watercraft at low speeds. This
function can be used only for forward opera-
tion of the watercraft.
TIP:
The no-wake mode can only be activated af-
ter 5 seconds have elapsed since starting the
engine.
Activating and deactivating the no-wake
mode
Activation of the no-wake mode will be con-
firmed by the number of beeps when the “NO-
WAKE MODE” switch is pushed, and by the
digital speedometer display of the multifunc-
tion information center. (See page 40 for infor-
mation on the multifunction information
center.)
TIP:
The beeps and the blinking digital speedome-
ter display also indicate the activation of the
cruise assist. (See page 37 for information on
the cruise assist.)

not receive any operation input within 25 sec-
onds after the engine stops, the center will
turn off and enter a standby state. When the
engine is started again, the displays return to
their state before the center turned off, and
then the center starts to operate normally.
EJU42330Analog speedometer/tachometer

both a speedometer function and a tachome-
ter function. By switching the meter, it can be
used as either a speedometer or a tachome-
ter.
TIP:
The analog tachometer is selected at the
Yamaha factory.
Analog tachometer
The analog tachometer shows the engine
speed.
The large outer numbers on the meter show
the engine speed × 100 rpm (r/min).
The “RPM” indicator light comes on when the

(See page 57 for information on checking the
engine oil level.) If the oil level is sufficient,
have a Yamaha dealer check the watercraft.

gine overheat warning indicator and the
“WARNING” indicator light stop blinking and
remain on, and the buzzer sounds continu-
ously. At the same time, the 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 cooling water pilot
outlet while the engine is running. If there is no
discharge of water, stop the engine, and then
check the jet intake for clogging. (See page
99 for information on the jet intake.) NOTICE:
If you cannot locate and correct the cause
of the overheating, consult a Yamaha deal-
