curely snapped onto its post to be fully
operational.
Pulling the safety lanyard cap from its

ing the engine start/stop button,

safety lanyard also be disconnect-
ed when stopping.
Attach the safety lanyard to the oper-
ator's Personal Flotation Device (PFD)

TYPICAL
1. Safety lanyard cap on the post
2. Safety lanyard secured on operator's PFD
WARNING
Should the engine be stopped,
watercraft directional control is re-
duced. Always disconnect safety
lanyard when watercraft is not in
operation in order to prevent acci-
dental engine starting or to avoid
unauthorized use by children or
others or theft.
If engine is not started within 5 sec-
onds after installing the safety lanyard
on its post, 4 very short beeps every 3
second interval will sound for approxi-
mately 4 hours to remind you to start
the engine or to remove safety lan-
yard. Afterwards, the beeps will stop.
The same will occur when safety lan-
yard is left on its post 5 seconds after
engine is stopped.
Always ensure safety lanyard is not
left on its post after engine is stopped.
IMPORTANT: Leaving the safety lan-
yard on its post when engine is not
running will slowly discharge the bat-
tery.
