WARNING
Do not use the reverse function to slow
down or stop the boat as it could cause
you to lose control, be ejected, or im-
pact the steering wheel or other parts of
the boat. This could increase the risk of
serious injury. It could also damage the
shift mechanism.
Do not shift into reverse while traveling
at planing speeds. Loss of control, boat
swamping, or damage to the boat could
occur.
