CAUTION: Do not lubricate connec-
tors of the Multi-Purpose Electronic
Module (MPEM) and the engine
Electronic Control Unit (EMS ECU).
Additional Lubrication
BOMBARDIER LUBE lubricant or equiv-
alent will help prevent corrosion of me-
tallic parts and maintain proper opera-
tion of moving mechanisms.

all its length. Pull out then push in sev-
eral times to distribute the lubricant.
Reverse Gate
Lubricate pivoting points and mecha-

Periodic Inspection
Routine maintenance is necessary for
all mechanized products. A periodic in-
spection contributes to the product’s
life span.
The following maintenance chart gives
guidelines for regular watercraft ser-
vicing scheduled to be performed by
you and/or by an authorized Sea-Doo
dealer. The schedule should be adjust-
ed according to operating conditions
and use.
NOTE: The chart gives an equivalence
between number of hours and months/
year. Perform the maintenance opera-
tion to whatever time comes first.
IMPORTANT: Schedule for watercraft
rental operations or higher number of
hour use, will require greater frequen-
cy of inspection and maintenance.

WARNING
Only perform procedures as de-
tailed in this guide. It is recommend-
ed that the assistance of an autho-
rized Sea-Doo dealer be periodically
obtained on other components/
systems not covered in this guide.
Unless otherwise specified, en-
gine must not be running and the
safety lanyard must be removed
from its post for all maintenance
procedures. Never use jet pump
components or side vanes to lift
the watercraft. Certain compo-
nents in the engine compartment
may be very hot. Direct contact
may result in skin burn. When op-
erating the engine while the wa-
tercraft is out of the water, the heat
exchanger in the ride plate may be-
come very hot. Avoid any contact
with ride plate as burns may occur.

WARNING
Do not lubricate the safety lanyard
post.
