Flushing
To flush the exhaust cooling system,
start the engine then immediately
open the water tap.
CAUTION: Never flush a hot engine.
Always start the engine before open-
ing the water tap. Open water tap
immediately after engine is started
to prevent overheating.
Run the engine about 20 seconds at a
fast idle between 4000 - 5000 RPM.
CAUTION: Never run engine without
supplying water to the exhaust cool-
ing system when sport boat is out of
water.
Ensure water flows out of jet pump
while flushing. Otherwise, refer to an
authorized Sea-Doo dealer for servic-
ing.
CAUTION: Never run engine longer
than 5 minutes. Drive line seal has no
cooling when sport boat is out of wa-
ter.
Close the water tap, then stop the en-
gine.
CAUTION: Always close the water
tap before stopping the engine.
Anticorrosion Treatment
To prevent corrosion, spray a corrosion
inhibitor (salt water resistant) such as
Bombardier Lube™ lubricant or equiva-
lent over metallic components in en-
gine compartment.
NOTE: Engine fogging should be done
with Bombardier Lube™ lubricant
whenever the sport boat is to be stored
for few days or a long period.
Apply dielectric grease (salt water re-
sistant) on battery posts and cable con-
nectors.
CAUTION: Never leave rags or tools
in the engine compartment or in the
bilge.
