Because fuel and oil are
flammable, have an authorized
Sea-Doo dealer inspect the fuel
system integrity as specified in the
periodic inspection chart.
It is recommended that the watercraft
be serviced by an authorized Sea-Doo
dealer for storage, however the follow-
ing operations can be performed by
you with a minimum of tools.
NOTE: Carry out the following tasks in
the same order as detailed in this sec-
tion.
NOTICE
Do notrun theengine dur-
ing the storage period.
Propulsion System
Jet Pump Cleaning
Clean jet pump by spraying water in its
inlet and outlet and then apply a coat of
XPS LUBE (P/N 293 600 016) or equiva-
lent.
WARNING
Always remove tether cord from
the engine cut-off switch to pre-
vent unexpected engine starting
before cleaning the jet pump area.
Engine must not be running for
this operation.
Jet Pump Inspection
Remove impeller cover (rear cone)
and check if jet pump is water con-
taminated; if so, see your authorized
Sea-Doo dealer.
Fuel System
Fuel System Protection
(P/N 413 408 600) (or equivalent)
should be added in the fuel tank to pre-
vent fuel deterioration and fuel system
gumming. Follow stabilizer manufac-
turers' instructions for proper use.
NOTICE
It is highly recommended
to add fuel stabilizer at storage in or-
der to maintain fuel system in good
condition. Fuel stabilizer should
be added prior to engine lubrica-
tion and fuel tank top up to ensure
fuel system components protection
against varnish deposits.
WARNING
Always stop the engine before re-
fueling. Fuel is inflammable and
explosive under certain condi-
tions. Always work in a well ven-
tilated area. Do not smoke or al-
low open flames or sparks in the
vicinity. Fuel tank may be pressur-
ized, slowly turn cap when open-
ing. When fueling, keep water-
craft level. Do not overfill or top
off the fuel tank and leave water-
craft in the sun. As temperature
increases, fuel expands and might
overflow. Always wipe off any fuel
spillage from the watercraft. Peri-
odically inspect fuel system.
NOTICE
Should any water be
trapped inside fuel tank, severe
in-
ternal damage will occur to the fuel
injection system.
