SPECIAL SAFETY MESSAGES

Do not exceed the payload or pas- senger capacities for your water- craft, which are listed on the capac- ity plate and in the specifications. Overloading can affect maneuver- ability, stability and performance. Also, heavy seas reduce capacity. A payload or person capacity plate is not an excuse for failure to use com- mon sense or good judgment.

Regularly inspect the PWC, the hull, engine, safety equipment, and all other boating gear and keep them in safe operating condition.

Be sure you have the minimum re- quired safety equipment, PFDs and any additional gear needed for your cruise.

Check that all lifesaving equipment, including fire extinguisher, is in safe operating condition and eas- ily accessible. Show all passengers where this equipment is, and make sure they know how to use it.

Keep an eye on the weather. Check local weather broadcasts before de- parture. Be alert to changing condi- tions.

Keep accurate and up-to-date charts of the boating area on board. Before getting underway, check water con- ditions in the planned boating area.

Keep enough fuel on board for the planned trip. Always verify fuel level before use and during the ride. Ap- ply the principle of 1/3 of the fuel to reach your destination, 1/3 to return, and keep 1/3 in reserve. Allow for changes due to adverse weather or other delays.

Operators and Passengers

Read and understand all WARNING/ SAFETY labels on your Sea-Doo PWC, your OPERATOR’S GUIDE, all other safety documents, and watch properly your SAFETY DVD, before operating. Always keep in mind that the “￿“ symbol, the Warning sym- bol, identifies an instruction which, if not followed, may cause serious personal injuries including the pos- sibility of death.

Check local and federal boating laws applicable to the waterways where you intend to use your watercraft. Learn the local rules of the road. Know and understand the appli- cable navigation system (such as buoys and signs). Know the waters in which the watercraft is to be oper- ated. Current, tides, rapids, hidden obstacles, wakes and waves etc. can affect safe operation. It is not advisable to operate the watercraft in rough or inclement weather.

For safety reasons and proper care, always perform “Daily Pre- operation Checks” as specified in your Operator’s Guide before op- erating your watercraft. Keep the safety lanyard attached to the oper- ator’s PFD at all times and keep it free from handlebars so that engine stops if operator falls off.

After riding, remove DESS™ key from its post to avoid unauthorized use by children or others. If opera- tor falls off the watercraft and safety lanyard is unattached, the water- craft will not stop

Never operate a PWC while under the influence of drugs or alcohol they slow reaction time and impair judgement. It is also a Federal of- fense. Allow only qualified drivers to operate your watercraft.

Remember that sun, wind, fatigue or illness may impair your judge- ment and reaction time.
