Emergency Engine Stop Switch
The Emergency Engine Stop Switch attaches to the boat opera-
tor by way of a lanyard for the purpose of shutting off the engine if the
operator, for any reason, moves or is moved away from the driver's
helm.
The switch assembly consists of an ON-OFF switch and a switch/
lanyard clip. The engine will not start and/or run if the toggle is in
the OFF position. Malibu recommends the clip always be inserted in
the toggle switch. Connected to the operator, if (s)he moves away
from the controls, the clip will pull free, pulling the switch to the OFF
position. If the engine needs to be shut down very quickly, it can be
done so by pulling on the lanyard to release it from the switch.
To reset the switch after activation, reinstall the lanyard clip and
flip the switch to the UP position.
when the engine is running. The purpose of the switch
is to immediately shut OFF the engine if the operator
moves away from the driver's helm. Without the driver's
control, all persons on-board or other boaters in the area
could be subject to serious injury or ever death. Never
operate the boat without the emergency engine stop
switch lanyard connected between the switch and the
boat operator. Malibu recommends the operator of the
vessel always remain at the helm any time the engine is
running.

Lighting
All Malibu boats are equipped with multiple lights to assist boat-
ers in low light situations.
where the boat must be operated in darkness, use the
boat's navigation and anchor lighting in accordance with
local law and ordinances which may restrict the type of
lighting to be used, plus sound signals, to alert anyone
in the area, and proceed slowly. After dark, it may be
impossible to see other boats, submerged hazards or the
shoreline, which can result in damage to the boat that is
not covered under warranty, and serious injury or even
death.
EMERGENCY BACK-UP KEY SWITCH: When the emergency
back-up key switch is turned to the ON position, the navigation and
anchor lights on the bow and tower illuminate.
Models: All models.
BOW LIGHTS/NAVIGATION LIGHTS: As required by the U.S.
Coast Guard and most maritime authorities, recreational vessels
should display navigational lights between sunset and sunrise, as
well as other periods of reduced visibility. These are available on
most models either as a standard light that is on the deck, or as an
optional pop-up light that pushes down into the deck and a chrome
cover sits flush with the deck. To open the pop-up, push down on the
chrome exterior and the light will pop open. To close, push down on
the light and it will fold
into the deck casing.
Bow lights are lo-
cated at the front of the
bow. On some models,
it is a single two-col-
ored element—red and
green and operated
from the dash panel,
while on other models
there is a green light on
the starboard side and a red light on the port side.
The green light will be on the starboard side of the deck adjacent
to the driver's helm, and the red light will be on the port side deck
adjacent to the observer seat location.
Boat outings should con-
clude prior to dark. Visual
sighting is critical to safe
boating. In an emergency
