When engine is running, water should
flow from the outlet. This allows air in
engine cooling system to escape. It
also indicates that water is circulating
in the cooling system.

slightly the engine RPM to see the wa-
ter flowing out.
CAUTION: Should water not flow
from outlet a few seconds after en-
gine starts, immediately stop engine
and refer to POST-OPERATION CARE
and look for cooling system flushing
or refer to an authorized Sea-Doo
dealer for servicing.

tion for proper use.
