ACTIVE TECHNOLOGIES (iCONTROL)

Introduction

NOTE: Some functions or features de-
scribed in this section may not apply to
every PWC model, or may be available
as an option.
iControl TM (intelligent Control sys-
tems) provides
whereby the operator can control
many systems without taking his
hands off the handlebars.
All controls are at the operator's finger
tips and activated by pressing a button
or pulling a lever. The operator's atten-
tion can thus remain focused on the
water and driving the watercraft.
Each control is electronic and provides
a command signal to an electronic
module whose function is to assure
proper operation of its system within
set parameters.
The various systems grouped under
iControl are the:
– iTC TM (intelligent Throttle Control)
– iBR (intelligent Brake and Reverse)
– O.T.A.S. (Off Throttle Assisted
Steering).
These systems function together to
provide improved watercraft response
to operator inputs and increased ma-
neuverability and control.
It is extremely important for operators
to read all information contained in this
operator's guide so as to become fa-
miliar with this watercraft, its systems,
controls, capabilities and limitations.
iTC (intelligent Throttle
Control)
The system uses an electronic throttle
control (ETC) that provides command
signals to the ECM (Engine Control
Module). With this system, there is no
need for a traditional throttle cable.
The iTC allows the following operating
modes:
– Sport mode
– ECO mode.

SAFETY INFORMATION
The O.T.A.S. TM
Steering) is also controlled by the iTC.
Sport Mode
In sport mode, maximum engine
power is available throughout the en-
gine operational range.
OPERATING MODES
Refer to
tion for detailed instructions.
ECO Mode
When ECO mode is selected (fuel
economy mode), engine RPM is lim-
ited whereby an optimal cruising
speed is maintained in order to reduce
fuel consumption.
OPERATING MODES
Refer to
tion for detailed instructions.
O.T.A.S. TM System
(Off-Throttle Assisted Steering)
The O.T.A.S. (Off-Throttle Assisted
Steering) system provides additional
maneuverability in off-throttle situa-
tions.
The O.T.A.S. system is electronically
activated when the operator initiates a
full turn and releases the throttle at the
same time.
Limitations
The O.T.A.S. system cannot help you
maintain control or prevent collisions
in all situations.
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
