A
DANGER
Avoid injury or death. Attach the ignition
safety switch lanyard to the operator
before starting the engine. This will
prevent the boat from becoming a
runaway if the operator is accidentally
thrown away from the helm. The ignition
safety switch can only be effective when
it is in good working condition. Observe
the following:
• Do not remove or modify the ignition
safety switch and/or lanyard.
• The lanyard must be free from
obstructions that could interfere with
its operation.
• DO NOT operate the boat if the ignition
safety switch does not function
properly.
• Attach the ignition safety switch
lanyard to a secure place on your
clothing, your arm or leg while
operating.
• DO NOT attach the lanyard to clothing
that could tear loose. DO NOT route
the lanyard where it could become
entangled, preventing it from
functioning.
• Avoid accidentally pulling the lanyard
during normal operation. Loss of
engine power means loss of most
steering control. Also, without engine
power, the boat could slow rapidly.
This could cause occupants and
objects in the boat to be thrown
forward.

Avoid injury or death. Make sure all
shift/throttle hardware and cables are
regularly inspected and maintained.
Improperly maintained controls are
hazardous and may cause sudden loss
of control.
NOTICE: Do not use the shift
levers when the engines are not
running. Do not shift too quickly
from FORWARD to REVERSE.
Damage to the engine and
transmission can result. When
shifting from FORWARD to
REVERSE, pause in the
NEUTRAL position until the
engine is at idle speed and the
boat has slowed. When shifting
from NEUTRAL to FORWARD or
REVERSE, shift briskly and
decisively.
Your Cobalt boat is equipped with a safety switch
for "start-in neutral-only" operation. The shift lever
must be in the NEUTRAL position before
attempting to start the engine.
The following information relates to the general
description of your controls. Refer to the engine
operator's manual or the control operator's manual
for specific use.
19. ACCENT LIGHT SWITCH AND DIMMER
CIRCUIT BREAKERS - The breakers for the helm
labeled protected device are located in the
starboard bow storage area. These breakers will
activate if overloaded, and cut power to the switch.
To restore power, turn off the device, push the
breaker button in and release. If the button
continues to pop out when the device is used, see
your authorized Cobalt dealer. Your boat may not
be equipped with all of these features or options.
