Crossing cables or jumper cables may result in damage to the electrical com- ponents due to incorrect battery connec- tions. Such damages may not be covered by your warranty. (Page 16-4)

Attention must be paid to any leakage occurring in the propeller shaft log area. Water intrusion into the transmission, which can happen if excessive leakage is occurring may cause serious damage. Such damage may not be covered by the warranty. (Page 16-3)

Allowing the fuel level in the fuel tank to fall below one-quarter of a tank full may affect the reliability of the fuel pump or result in damage to the fuel pump, which is not covered under war- ranty. (Page 5-6,6-1)

Engines should always be operated within engine manufactur- er guidelines. Failure to do so may cause significant damage to the engine and drive train and is not covered under warranty! (Page 10-3)

Continuing to operate the boat while the temperature is above normal operating parameters may cause serious damage to your engine. Damage to your engine resulting from operating the engine in an overheated condition can be costly to repair. Such damage is not covered by your warranty! (Page 5-9)

Do not overuse starting fluid. Too much starting fluid can cause detonation within the engine that can damage components and doing so may void your warranty! (Page 6-3)

Exposure to salt water will cause corrosion leading to significant damage to stainless steel and chrome parts. Failure to thorough- ly rinse salt water from all hardware, and to apply protective oil after each exposure to salt water, will accelerate the corrosion of hardware and will void your warranty. (Page 12-1)

The anchor, sometimes accompanied by a windlass, has been provided to assist boaters in remaining in a chosen location. Note that use of the anchor system will not guarantee a prop- erly anchored boat or that the boat will remain in a stationary position. Environmental, bottom conditions, current and tidal conditions must be taken into consideration when anchoring the boat. Only properly trained operators should set the anchor for this system. Establishing a secure anchorage requires practice. Damage to your boat may result due to improper anchoring techniques. (Page 19-1)
