Controls/Instruments/Equipments Functions; Safety Lanyard (Engine Cut-Off Cord) - Sea-doo 4-TEC GTX Operator's Manual

CONTROLS/INSTRUMENTS/EQUIPMENTS
FUNCTIONS
1) Safety Lanyard
(engine cut-off cord)
The safety lanyard cap should be se-
curely snapped onto its post to be fully
operational.
Pulling the safety lanyard cap from its
post stops the engine operation.
WARNING
While engine can be stopped us-
ing the engine start/stop button,
good habits recommend that the
safety lanyard also be disconnect-
ed when stopping.
Attach the safety lanyard to the oper-
ator's Personal Flotation Device (PFD)
and snap the cap to the post to be able
to start the engine.
Two short beeps indicates the sys-
tem is ready to allow engine start-
ing. Otherwise, refer to the TROU-
BLESHOOTING section for the coded
signals chart.

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.
Digitally Encoded Security
System (DESS)
The safety lanyard cap specifically con-
tains an electronic circuit that gives it a
unique electronic serial number. This
is the equivalent of a conventional key.
This safety lanyard cannot be used on
another watercraft and conversely, the
one from another watercraft cannot be
used on your watercraft.
However, the DESS brings a great flex-
ibility. You can buy an additional safe-
ty lanyard and have it programmed for
your watercraft.
To have additional safety lanyard, refer
to an authorized Sea-Doo dealer.
