STORAGE AND PRE-SEASON PREPARATION
Storage
It is recommended that the craft be
taken to an authorized SEA-DOO Sport
Boat dealer for proper storage but the
following operations can be performed
by you with a minimum of tools.
CAUTION: Do not run the engine dur-
ing the storage period.
Fuel System
Refer to M

Jet Drive Operator‘s Guide.
Cooling System Flushing and
Engine Internal Lubrication
Refer to M

Jet Drive Operator‘s Guide.
Propulsion System
Refer to M
2
Jet Drive Operator‘s Guide.
Craft Cleaning/Repair
Wash the body and the trailer with
soap and water solution (only use mild
detergent). Rinse thoroughly with
fresh water. Remove any marine or-
ganisms from the hull.
CAUTION: Never clean apparent fi-
berglass and plastic parts with
strong detergent, degreasing agent,
paint thinner, acetone, etc.
Stains may be removed from seats
and fiberglass with Knight’s Spray-
Nine* from Korkay System Ltd or the
equivalent.
If repairs are needed to the body or to
the hull contact your dealer. For paint
touch up to mechanical parts use Bom-
bardier spray paint. For minor gelcoat
repairs, a Bombardier repair kit is avail-
able. Replace damaged labels/decals.
Clean the bilge with hot water and de-
tergent or with bilge cleaner. Rinse
thoroughly. Unscrew drain plug(s) and
lift front end of craft to completely drain
bilge.
Battery
Contact your authorized SEA-DOO Sport
Boat dealer.
Anticorrosion Treatment
Wipe off any residual water in the en-
gine compartment.
Lubricate the throttle cable with BOM-
BARDIER LUBE lubricant or equivalent.
Finalizing Storage Preparation
Apply a non abrasive wax to body.
The engine cover should be left partial-
ly opened during storage (detach the
gas shocks from the cover to prevent
full opening). Remove storage tray.
Place it on deck. This will avoid engine
compartment condensation and possi-
ble corrosion.
If the craft is to be stored outside, cov-
er it with a vented opaque tarpaulin to
prevent sun rays and grime from af-
fecting the plastic components, craft
finish as well as preventing dust accu-
mulation.
CAUTION: Never leave the craft
stored in direct sunlight. UV radiation
will dull finishes. The craft must never
be left in water for storage. Make sure
to turn off main battery cut-off switch.
For the storage period, it is necessary
to lift the bow up and safely block in
this position so drainage can take
place. Ensure the drain plug is un-
screwed.
WARNING
Because fuel and oil are flammable,
have an authorized SEA-DOO Sport
Boat dealer inspect the fuel and oil
systems integrity as specified in the
periodic inspection chart.
