Fuel requirementsEJU45241FuelEWJ00283
Gasoline and gasoline vapors are ex-
tremely flammable. To avoid fires and
explosions and to reduce the risk of in-
jury when refueling, follow these in-
structions.
Gasoline is poisonous and can cause in-
jury or death. Handle gasoline with care.
Never siphon gasoline by mouth. If you
should swallow some gasoline, inhale a
lot of gasoline vapor, or get some gaso-
line in your eyes, see your doctor imme-
diately. If gasoline spills on your skin,
wash with soap and water. If gasoline
spills on your clothing, change your
clothes.
ECJ01870
Do not use leaded gasoline. Leaded
gasoline can seriously damage the en-
gine.
Avoid getting water and contaminants in
the fuel tank. Contaminated fuel can
cause poor performance and engine
damage. Use only fresh gasoline that
has been stored in clean containers.
Use only gasoline with a minimum pump
octane number of 91 or a minimum re-
search octane number of 95. Low-oc-
tane gasoline can seriously damage the
engine.
Your Yamaha engine has been designed to
use premium unleaded gasoline with a pump
octane number [(R+M)/2] of 91 or higher, or a
research octane number of 95 or higher. Ifknocking (or pinging) occurs, use a gasoline
of a different brand.
TIP
This mark identifies the recommended fuel
for this watercraft as specified by European
regulation (EN228).
Check that the gasoline nozzle has the
same identifier when fueling.
Gasohol
There are two types of gasohol: gasohol con-
taining ethanol and gasohol containing meth-
anol.
Gasohol containing ethanol can be used if
the ethanol content does not exceed 10%
and the fuel meets th
e minimum octane rat-
ings. E-85 is a fuel blend containing 85% eth-
anol and therefore must not be used in this
watercraft. All ethanol blends containing
more than 10% ethanol can cause fuel sys-
tem damage or engine performance prob-
lems.
Yamaha does not recommend gasohol con- taining methanol because it can cause fuel Recommended fuel:
Premium unleaded gasoline with a
minimum octane rating of 91
(Pump octane number) = (R + M)/2
95 (Research octane number)

Care and storage

EJU37148
Post-operation careEWJ00332
Always place the watercraft upright in a
horizontal position when storing it, other-
wise fuel could leak out into the engine or
engine compartment, which could create
a fire hazard.
After using the watercraft, always take it out
of the water, clean it, and store it. Leaving the
watercraft in the water for extended periods
will accelerate the rate of normal deteriora-
tion of the jet pump and hull. Marine organ-
isms and corrosion are some of the
conditions that can shorten the life of many
watercraft components.
EJU46120Flushing the cooling water passagesECJ01880
Do not run the engine over 4000 r/min on
land. Also, do not run the engine for
more than 15 seconds without supplying
water, otherwise the engine could over-
heat.
Flush the cooling water passages to
prevent them from clogging with salt,
sand, or dirt.
(1) Place the watercraft in a horizontal posi-tion.
(2) Remove the seats and seat storage compartment. (See page 48 for seat re-
moval and installation procedures and
page 52 for information on the seat stor-
age compartment.)
(3) Connect the garden hose adapter to a garden hose. (4) Loosen the flushing hose connector cap
and remove it. Insert the garden hose
adapter into the flushing hose connector
by pushing and twisting it until it is se-
curely connected.
(5) Connect the garden hose to a water tap.
(6) Make sure that the area around the wa- tercraft is clear, and then start the en-
gine. Immediately after the engine starts,
fully turn the water supply on so that wa-
ter flows out continually from the jet
thrust nozzle.
