If the remote discharge indicator light
turns off during a ride, it indicates the
automatic fire extinguisher is
discharging.
Make sure to use the following recom-
mendations if the extinguisher dis-
charges because of a fire:
DDuurriinngg ddiisscchhaarrggee::
– Immediately shut down the engine,
disconnecting the key.
– Do not open the engine
compartment.
– If it is safe, reach for your portable
fire extinguisher (not supplied), in
case it is needed.
AAfftteerr ddiisscchhaarrggee::
– Before inspecting for damage, al-
low the agent to “soak” the com-
partment for at least 15 minutes
and wait for hot metals or fuels to
cool.
– Have approved portable extin-
guishers in hand and ready for
use.
– Do not breathe fumes or vapors
caused by the fire and/or suppres-
sion agent. They are hazardous
and toxic.
– Open the access covers and venti-
late the engine compartment.
– Contact your dealer for damage
assessment and parts
replacements.

Weeds, shells or debris can get
caught on the intake grate, drive shaft
and/or impeller. A clogged water in-
take may cause troubles such as:
– CCaavviittaattiioonn:: Engine speed is high
but watercraft moves slowly due to
reduced jet thrust, jet pump com-
ponents may be damaged.
– OOvveerrhheeaattiinngg:: Since the jet pump
operation controls the flow of water
to cool the exhaust system, a
clogged intake will cause the en-
gine to overheat and damage en-
gine internal components.
If the water intake is clogged, activate
the iDF. Refer to
How to Use the intel-
ligent Debris Free Pump System (iDF
System)
