covered under warranty. Avoid pinching fingers, hands and
other body parts while closing the glove box lid.
Do not store any aerosol items in the glove box. These can over-
heat and leak and/or rupture. Any liquid or semi-liquid material placed
in the glove box may spill or overheat. Care should always be used
when placing liquids such as suntan lotion in the glove box. Malibu is
not responsible for such misjudgments.
If any water does intrude into the glove box, clean it out as soon
as practical. Mold and mildew can result if even small amounts of wa-
ter are not removed. As with any storage location, any spills should
be cleaned efficiently to avoid damage and/or odors.
Models: All models have a glove box located forward of and
adjacent to the observer seat.

Storage Compartments

Malibu boats have multiple storage compartments available through-
out the boat. In general, storage is available in the bow, gunwale and
floor. Some models will also have transom storage. Also, some models
may have interior lighting within the storage compartments.

uted throughout the boat as possible to avoid negatively affecting
control. Never try to close an overloaded storage compartment.
Forcing a compartment closed can result in damage to the boat that
is not covered under warranty.
