Exercise 2: Starting and stopping engine
Drill 1: Starting the engine
1. VX Deluxe/VX Cruiser: Press the unlock button 1 on the remote control transmitter to
deactivate the security system. (See the “Yamaha Security System” section in the
owner’s/operator’s manual for more information.)
VX: Skip to step 2. (Your watercraft is not equipped with Yamaha Security System.)
2. Attach the engine shut-off cord 2 to your wrist. Insert the clip 3, under the engine shut-
off switch 4. Make sure to keep the engine shut-off cord free from the handlebars so the
engine stops if the operator falls off. The clip may not pull free if the cord is wrapped
around the handlebars.
3. Push the start switch 5 (green button). (Do not squeeze either the throttle lever or RiDE lever. Otherwise, the engine will not
start.)
4. Release the start switch as soon as the engine starts to run.
