for OFF. Turn to the other direction to turn ON the Slick Boot. Return to center for OFF. These instructions work whether the boat is equipped with one (1) or both of the options, but will not be found in boats that are not equipped with either option.

On MariStars, CSX 220 or 265, the X-Star and the Saltwater Series a tank option within available models can provide a fresh- water wash of the boat interior. The tank will be eight (8), ten

(10)or twenty-five (25) gallons capacity, depending on the boat model. The two-position switch is pressed up for ON and down for OFF.

Do not use the shower with the engine running.

Carbon monoxide is emitted from the engine’s exhaust system. Never run the engine without proper ventilation. Do not run the engine in a confined space or where fumes may be trapped.

Routine maintenance is not required beyond occasionally check- ing the lines and shower head to be certain these elements are not damaged in any fashion. Be certain to follow the Storage

&Winterization section’s instructions found elsewhere in this Owner’s Manual.

Swim/Boarding Platforms

One of the most attractive aspects of all MasterCraft boats are the swim platforms attached to the transom of the boats. Whether teak or fiberglass with inlays, the swim platforms are a source of enjoyment.

MasterCraft reminds consumers to review theCommon Sense Approach section of this Owner’s Manual, and pay particular at- tention to avoiding “teak surfing” or “platform dragging,” which expose the participant to excess carbon monoxide; and to the information regarding use of the optional shower while standing or sitting on the swim platform.

Stereo Equipment

All stereo equipment, whether standard or optional equipment, comes with extensive instruction material. Please refer to this material or to the manufacturer’s website for details and guidance.

Carbon monoxide is a colorless, tasteless, odorless and poison- ous gas that accumulates rapidly and can cause serious injury or death. Exposure to carbon monoxide can be fatal in a matter of minutes. Exposure to even low concentrations of carbon monoxide must not be ignored because the effects of exposure to carbon monoxide can build up and be just as lethal as high concentrations. Carbon monoxide from exhaust pipes of in- board or outboard engines may build up inside and outside the boat in areas near exhaust vents, particularly during slow-speed operations. STAY AWAY from these exhaust vent areas, which are located at the stern of the boat, and DO NOT swim or engage in any watersports or other activities in or near the stern area of the boat, including, without limitation, the swim platform and the rear sun deck, when the engine is in operation. Under no circumstances should the owner and/or operator allow persons to hold onto the swim platform while the engine is operating and the boat is in motion. These activities (sometimes known as “teak surfing” or “platform dragging,” where the participant holds onto the swim platform and is pulled through the water, and/or “body surfs” immediately behind the boat) are extremely dangerous, highly likely to result in death or serious bodily injury, and are a misuse of this product.
