EPA standards as conforming to the requirements
of the regulations for the control of air pollution
emitted from new watercraft engines. This cer-

TIGHTENING TORQUE
Tighten fasteners to the torque specified in the exploded view(s) and/or in the written procedure. When
a torque is not specified, the torque normally recommended for a specific fastener should be used. Refer
to the following table.

WARNING
Torque wrench tightening specifications must be strictly adhered to.
Locking devices must be replaced when removed (e.g.: locking tabs, elastic stop nuts, self-lock-
ing fasteners, cotter pins, etc.).

In order to avoid a poor assembly, tighten screws, bolts, or nuts in accordance with the following proce-
dure:
1. Manually screw all screws, bolts and/or nuts.
2. Apply half the recommended torque value.
NOTICE Be sure to use the recommended tightening torque for the specified fastener used.
NOTE: Whenever possible, always apply torque on the nut.
3. Tighten fastener to the recommended torque value.
NOTE: Always torque screws, bolts and/or nuts using a crisscross pattern when multiple fasteners are
used to secure a part (e.g. a cylinder head). Some parts must be torqued according to a specific se-
quence and torque pattern as detailed in the installation procedure.

Subsection XX (MAINTENANCE SCHEDULE)

MAINTENANCE SCHEDULE
Maintenance is very important for keeping the watercraft in a safe operating condition. The watercraft
should be serviced as per the maintenance schedule.
A repair shop or person of the owner's choosing may maintain, replace, or repair emission control devices
and systems. These instructions do not require components or service by BRP or authorized Sea-Doo
dealers. Although an authorized Sea-Doo dealer has an in-depth technical knowledge and tools to service
the Sea-Doo personal watercraft, the emission-related warranty is not conditioned on the use of an au-
thorized Sea-Doo dealer or any other establishment with which BRP has a commercial relationship. For
emission-related warranty claims, BRP is limiting the diagnosis and repair of emission-related parts to
the authorized Sea-Doo dealers. For more information, please refer to the US EPA EMISSION-RELATED
WARRANTY contained herein. Proper maintenance is the owner’s responsibility. A warranty claim may
be denied if, among other things, the owner or operator caused the problem through improper mainte-
nance or use.
You must follow the instructions for fuel requirements in the fueling section of this manual. Even if gaso-
line containing greater than ten volume percent ethanol is readily available, the US EPA issued a prohibi-
tion against the use of gasoline containing greater than 10 vol% ethanol that applies to this vehicle. The
use of gasoline containing greater than 10 vol% ethanol with this engine may harm the emission control
system.
Disregard the information pertaining to the following systems if the watercraft is not equipped with these
features:
– iBR (intelligent Brake and Reverse)
– iS (intelligent Suspension) (GTX LTD iS only)
– aS (adjustable Suspension) (RXT-X aS only)
Carry out all maintenance as listed in the schedule whenever the hours or time of each column is reached.
NOTE: As an example, at 200 hours or 2 years, complete all items in this column and ALSO in the EVERY
100 hours or 1 year column.

WARNING
Failure to properly maintain the watercraft according to the maintenance schedule and proce-
dures can make it unsafe to operate.

The maintenance schedule does not exempt the pre-ride inspection.

BLOW-BY VALVE
Blow-By Valve Description
The function of the blow-by valve is the circulation
of the oil vapors.

Blow-By Valve Operation


Normal Operation
During its normal operation, the blow-by valve al-
lows crankcase vapors to return in the intake sys-
tem where they are harmlessly burned.

1. Camshaft
2. Oil separator cover

NOTE: Be careful not to break the holding clips


from oil separator cover when its removed from

Oil Separator Cover Inspection


Inspect oil separator cover for marks or other dam-
ages. Ensure to check also the holding clips of oil
separator cover and for thrust washer. If any dam-
age is visible replace oil separator cover.

smr2009-023-019_a

NORMAL OPERATION

By-Pass Function
If, for any reason, the valve piston gets stuck
at normal operation and the crankcase pressure
exceeds 40 kPa (6 PSI), the pressure unseats a
check ball and crankcase vapors can bypass the
valve piston.

Oil Separator Cover Installation


For installation, reverse the removal procedure.
Pay attention to the following details.
Properly install oil separator cover and thrust
washer. They need to be in a perfect even posi-
tion with timing gear.

TOPS SWITCH
Tip Over Protection Switch (TOPS
Switch) Function
The function of the TOPS switch is the engine pro-
tection in the event the watercraft tip over.
During normal operation the TOPS switch state is
OFF, no signal to the ECM.
If the watercraft tips over, gravity causes a valve
piston to close and no engine oil will leak out of
the blow-by valve.
In this event, a pin (with magnet) opens a gap
to the TOPS switch (Hall effect sensor) and the

GENERAL
NOTE: When diagnosing an engine problem, al-
ways perform an engine leak test. This will help
pin-point a problem. Refer to ENGINE LEAK TEST
in this subsection for procedures.
When disassembling parts that are duplicated in
the engine, (e.g.: valves, bushings), it is strongly
recommended to note their position and to keep
them as a “group”. If you find a defective com-
ponent, it will be much easier to find the cause
of the failure. Since parts were break-in together
during the engine operation, they will keep their
smr2009-025-002_a
matched fit when parts are reassemble together
1. Oil dipstick
within their “group”.
6. Unplug and remove ignition coils.
INSPECTION 7. Remove spark plugs.
NOTE: Ignition coil may be used as an extractor.
ENGINE LEAK TEST
The procedure has to be done when engine oper-
ating temperature of approximately 70°C (158°F)
is reached.
WARNING
Be careful to burns when working on a hot
engine.

LIMP HOME MODE using default parameters
when certain major faults are detected. For more
information, refer to DIAGNOSTIC AND FAULT
CODES.
Diagnostic Mode
The ECM features a self-diagnostic mode that is
initiated on system power up for certain systems
and components (when pressing the START but-
ton), and when the engine is running for others.

CONTROLLER AREA NETWORK (CAN)


GENERAL
SYSTEM DESCRIPTION
The CAN (Controller Area Network) protocol is an ISO standard for serial data communication.
The CAN bus is the nervous system of the iControl system and the engine management system (EMS).
It links the electronic modules (ECUs) together so that they communicate to interact as required.
Two wires connect each component and they are in constant communication with each other at a rate of
about every 10 or 100 milliseconds depending on the component. CAN lines consist of a pair of twisted
wires (WHITE/BLACK and WHITE/BEIGE).

This type of malfunctions can be discovered by looking at
the "Occurred" faults and then by evaluating the fault count.
As long as a fault is present, it is displayed as "Active".

GENERAL
SYSTEM DESCRIPTION
NOTE: Some functions or features described in
this section may not apply to every PWC model,
or may be available as an option.
The iTC is an electronic throttle control system
that includes a cableless throttle control located
on the RH side of handlebar, an electric throttle ac-
tuator (ETA) located on the throttle body and the
engine control module (ECM). The iTC is often re-
ferred to as a "throttle by wire" system.
sdd2009-001-030_b

TYPICAL
1. Throttle body
2. Throttle actuator

The throttle lever operates the throttle accelera-


tor sensor (TAS). It is a double output hall effect
sensor. The redundancy is used for security pur-
poses.
The throttle actuator (ETA) is a DC motor on the
throttle body that regulates the throttle plate via a
drive gear. Pulse width modulation (PWM) is used
sdd2009-001-031_a
to control the motor. In the throttle body, there is

2. Throttle accelerator sensor (TAS) a potentiometer that supplies the ECM the actual
angle position of the throttle plate.
According to the torque demand from the TAS,
the ECM powers the ETA motor to rotate towards
open or close the throttle plate. When the ECM
detects through the TPS that the throttle plate has
reached the targeted opening, the ECM stops the
throttle actuator.
The iTC allows the throttle actuator to be moved ir-
respective of the accelerator sensor position since
it is not directly linked by a throttle cable.

O.T.A.S. TM System (Off-Throttle


Assisted Steering)
The O.T.A.S. (Off-Throttle Assisted Steering)
system provides additional maneuverability in
off-throttle situations. The O.T.A.S. system is
electronically activated and slightly increases en-
gine speed under a pre-defined RPM when the
driver initiates a full turn. When the handlebar is
brought back to its center position, the throttle
reverts to idle.
The throttle plate will open and close as necessary
to assist the steering.
Limitations
The O.T.A.S. system cannot help maintaining con-
trol or prevent collisions in all situations.

The Sport/ECO switch contain a series of 4 diodes


for the Sport and ECO switches.
The center wire to the switches (pin C), is com-
mon for Sport/ECO switch and VTS switch. The
other two wires (pins A and B), act as signal wires
for each set of switches to the gauge. They actu-
ally each form one branch of an electronic circuit
within the gauge.
Each diode (in circuit) drops a nominal 0.6 Vdc
when conducting electricity. If the circuit current
passes through all four diodes (if the Sport/ECO
switch is open), a drop of 2.4 Vdc would be mea-
sured across the 4 the diodes (pin B to pin C). This

2. Disconnect the gauge connector.
The gauge senses these voltages through pin 14
of its connector, and interprets them as signals
that tell it which switch is activated.
When Sport or ECO button is pressed, a circuit
within the gauge will translate it to CAN protocol
and transmit it through the CAN bus. The ECM
(engine control module) will react to the command
and carry out the function.
NOTE: The above stated voltages vary slightly de-

and the current flow through the diodes. When

Fuel Level Indication


An electric float type fuel level sensor is mounted
on the side of the fuel pump reservoir. As the float
moves with changing fuel levels, it varies a resis-
tance that changes the voltage signal coming from
the information center (multifunction gauge). This
signal is representative of the fuel level.

SYSTEM DESCRIPTION
The purpose of the charging system is to maintain
the battery at a full state of charge and to provide
the electrical system with the required electrical
power for normal vehicle operation.

Magneto
The magneto is the primary source of electrical
energy. It transforms a magnetic field into an elec-
tric current (AC).
The magneto has a 3 phase, delta wound, 18 pole smr2011-029-001_a
stator that is rated at 380 watts. 1. Voltage regulator/rectifier

Battery
The battery supplies DC power to the electric
starter for cranking the engine. During engine
starting, it also supplies DC power to every elec-
trical and electronic system in the vehicle as well
as all accessories.
At low engine RPM operation and high current
load conditions, it supplements the magneto
output and helps to maintain a steady system
voltage.

1) Speedometer
The speedometer, located in the LH side of the information center, provides an analog indication of the
speed of the watercraft in miles per hour (MPH) and kilometers per hour (km/h).
The speed indication is based on a GPS (Global Positioning System) incorporated within the information
center.
If for some reason the GPS signal is lost, a default mode is used whereby, the speed is calculated using
information received from other systems to provide an estimated watercraft speed.

2) Tachometer
The tachometer provides an analog indication of the revolutions per minute (RPM) of the engine. Multiply
the indicated number by 1000 to obtain the actual engine RPM.

3) Multifunction Gauge
The multifunction gauge, located in the center of the information center, is capable of displaying different
indications simultaneously.
Numerical and multifunction displays in the digital screen indicator can be used to display various indica-
tions, or for selecting modes of operation and changing settings as explained in their respective sections.

Each diode (in circuit) drops a nominal 0.6 Vdc


when conducting electricity. If the circuit current
passes through all four diodes (say MODE and
SET switches open), a drop of 2.4 Vdc would be
measured across the 4 the diodes (pin B to pin
C). This voltage drop of 2.4 Vdc measured at pin
B tells the gauge the MODE and SET switches

If the MODE switch is pressed, 2 diodes are by-

GENERAL
SYSTEM DESCRIPTION (O.T.A.S.)
The O.T.A.S. (Off-Throttle Assisted Steering) pro-
vides additional maneuverability in off-throttle sit-
uations.
The system uses a pair of magnets attached to the
steering column and a Hall effect switch attached
to the steering column support.
When activated by a magnet, the O.T.A.S. switch
sends a signal to the ECM.
The ECM activates a pre-programmed RPM set- smr2012-034-030_a

– The steering must be fully turned within approx-
imately 4 seconds after throttle release.
The O.T.A.S. will stay activated for a random
period of time as long as the O.T.A.S. switch is
closed.
O.T.A.S. will be deactivated if:
– The throttle is reapplied, or
– The steering is turned sufficiently to open the
O.T.A.S. switch for more than one second.

Subsection XX (iBR AND VTS)

GENERAL
SYSTEM DESCRIPTION (iBR)
The iBR (intelligent Brake and Reverse) is an elec-
tronically controlled braking and reverse system.
The iBR module controls the position of the iBR
gate to provide forward thrust, reverse thrust,
braking thrust, and neutral.
The operator commands the position of the iBR
gate using either the throttle lever for forward
thrust, or the iBR lever for neutral, reverse, and
for the braking function. sdd2009-001-029_a

The iBR lever is located on the LH side of the han- 1. iBR lever
2. BRLS sensor
dlebar.
The BRLS sends the signals to the iBR module.
The iBR module controls an electric motor that in
turn raises or lowers the iBR gate through a me-
chanical drive unit.
NOTE: The iBR gate will move when commanded
by the iBR lever only if the engine is running. For
maintenance purposes, the iBR OVERRIDE func-
tion available through the gauge can be used to
electrically move the gate to the desired position.
sdd2009-001-036_a
The iBR module is programmed with various pa-
1. iBR lever (intelligent Brake and Reverse) rameters that it compares to the input signals and
information it obtains through the CAN bus from
the other electronic modules.
Depending on vehicle speed and how far the iBR
lever is pulled in, the iBR module will automatically
adjust the iBR gate movement speed and stroke.
NOTE: The iBR lever must be pulled in at least
25% of its travel (approximately) before the iBR
gate starts to move. The first 25% of iBR lever
travel has no effect on the iBR gate.
Every time the iBR gate moves when commanded
by the iBR lever, engine RPM is momentarily re-
duced to idle speed as the gate moves.

TROUBLESHOOTING
The iBR system is self monitoring. If a fault oc-
curs in the iBR system, it will raise a fault code and
communicate it to the information center through
the CAN bus. The information center will turn on
the iBR indicator light to advise the operator of
the iBR system fault. If the fault remains active,
it may be displayed in the gauge. If it is no longer
active, B.U.D.S. must be used to read the fault.

VTS CONTROL BUTTON VTS Button Overview


The VTS button contain a series of 4 diodes for the
UP and DOWN arrow switches. Refer to WIRING
DIAGRAM.
The center wire to the switches (pin "C"), is com-
mon for iS button and VTS button (somewhat like
a ground wire). The other two wires (pins "A" and
"B"), act as signal wires to the gauge for each set
of switches. They actually each form one branch
of an electronic circuit within the gauge.
Each diode (in circuit) drops a nominal 0.6 Vdc
when conducting electricity. If the circuit current
passes through all four diodes (say VTS switch
sdd2009-001-019_c open), a drop of 2.4 Vdc would be measured

and the current flow through the diodes. When
using a Fluke 115 multimeter for testing in diode
test mode, the voltage and current applied by the
multimeter are lower than in circuit. The quality
of probe contact, the actual probes and leads, and
the precision of the meter calibration will all affect
the results, which will most likely be slightly lower

INTRODUCTION
This publication governs all warranty labor allowances for 2015 BRP Personal Watercraft.
1. HOW DOES IT WORK
We follow the procedures detailed in the BRP Watercraft Shop Manual. The flat rate time is the maximum time
allowed for a repair involving any given part. FLAT RATE TIME IS NOT CUMULATIVE. You must use the flat rate
time given for the longest lasting operation.
NOTE: The Flat Rate Time Schedule was prepared by skilled mechanics using the hand tools usually found in
workshops and all the special tools mentioned in the Shop Manual.
2. COMPILATION
The Flat Rate Time Schedule is compiled as follows:
The actual required time to perform the repair plus (+) 30% correction factor up to 3.0 hours or (+) 15% over
3.0 hours time to take into account, among others:
– Vehicle handling
– Obtaining the parts
– Diagnosis
– Cleaning
– Special compensation (rusted bolts).
3. HOW TO USE IT
Refer to the system you need, locate part or series of parts replaced. List JOB CODE in the appropriate column on

INTRODUCTION
This publication governs all warranty labor allowances for 2015 BRP Personal Watercraft.
1. HOW DOES IT WORK
We follow the procedures detailed in the BRP Watercraft Shop Manual. The flat rate time is the maximum time
allowed for a repair involving any given part. FLAT RATE TIME IS NOT CUMULATIVE. You must use the flat rate
time given for the longest lasting operation.
NOTE: The Flat Rate Time Schedule was prepared by skilled mechanics using the hand tools usually found in
workshops and all the special tools mentioned in the Shop Manual.
2. COMPILATION
The Flat Rate Time Schedule is compiled as follows:
The actual required time to perform the repair plus (+) 30% correction factor up to 3.0 hours or (+) 15% over
3.0 hours time to take into account, among others:
– Vehicle handling
– Obtaining the parts
– Diagnosis
– Cleaning
– Special compensation (rusted bolts).
3. HOW TO USE IT
Refer to the system you need, locate part or series of parts replaced. List JOB CODE in the appropriate column on
claim.

05 PROPULSION 26

NOTE: Unless otherwise specified, dismantling order is: top to bottom, exterior to interior, front to rear.
All fractions of hours are in tenths:
0.1 = 6 minutes
0.2 = 12 minutes, and so on
LEGEND:
* REQUIRES PRIOR AUTHORIZATION BY DISTRIBUTOR.
** INDICATE LABOUR TIME ON LINE “LABOUR ONLY“ OF CLAIM.
*** INDICATE $$$ AMOUNT ON “SUB-CONTRACTED LABOUR“ OF CLAIM.

IMPORTANT: Always use the longest flat rate time applicable to the repair performed.
4. JOB REQUIREMENTS
All the flat rate times mentioned in the following pages include the required operations such as: engine timing,
connecting rod(s) alignment, cylinder head(s) torque or use of parallel bar, use of ignition tester, piston clearance/ring
end gap measurement, crankshaft to crankcase measurement, cylinder honing, engine leak test.
5. ILLUSTRATIONS
The illustrations contained in this manual do not necessarily show every components of a given system as Parts
Catalogs do. Their purpose is to facilitate recognition of parts related to a flat rate time. Item numbers on illustra-
tions correspond to the four or five-digit Job Code.

INTRODUCTION
Cette publication détermine le temps de MAIN-D’OEUVRE couvert par la garantie pour les motomarines BRP 2015.
1. UTILISATION DU MANUEL
En procédant de la façon indiquée dans le Manuel de réparation motomarines BRP, chaque temps donné représente
le maximum permis pour une réparation portant sur cette pièce. LES TEMPS NE SONT PAS CUMULATIFS. On
doit inscrire le temps donné pour l’opération qui prend le plus de temps.
REMARQUE: Le Barème de temps à taux fixe a été préparé par des mécaniciens compétents utilisant les outils
que l’on retrouve normalement dans les ateliers de réparation, en plus de tous les outils spéciaux mentionnés dans
le Manuel de réparation.
2. COMPILATION
Le Barème de temps à taux fixe a été établi en compilant le temps nécessaire pour faire la réparation plus (+) un
facteur de correction de 30% lorsqu’un travail dure 3.0 heures et moins, ou (+) 15% lorsqu’un travail dure plus de
3.0 heures. Cette compilation comprend, entre autres, les étapes suivantes:
– Manutention de la motomarine
– Nettoyage
– Aller chercher les pièces, essais physiques
– Compensation spéciale (boulons rouillés)
– Diagnostic.
3. UTILISATION DU BARÈME
Se reporter à la section désirée, repérer la pièce ou l’ensemble de pièces remplacées et inscrire le CODE DE
TRAVAIL dans la colonne appropriée sur la formule de réclamation.
SYSTÈME PAGE SYSTÈME PAGE

04 DÉMARREUR 24
05 PROPULSION 26

REMARQUE: Sauf indication contraire, le démontage doit s’effectuer de haut en bas, de l’extérieur vers l’intérieur,
de l’avant vers l’arrière.
Toutes les fractions d’heures sont exprimées en dixièmes:
0.1 = 6 minutes
0.2 = 12 minutes, et ainsi de suite
LÉGENDE:
* AUTORISATION REQUISE AVANT LE REMPLACEMENT.
** INSCRIRE LE TEMPS À LA LIGNE «MAIN-D’OEUVRE SEULEMENT».
*** INSCRIRE LE MONTANT $$$ À LA LIGNE «OUVRAGE SOUS-CONTRACTÉ».

IMPORTANT: Toujours utiliser le temps donné à l’opération qui nécessite le plus de temps.
4. TRAVAUX REQUIS
Tous les temps mentionnés dans les pages suivantes incluent les opérations telles que: réglage du moteur, aligne-
ment de la ou des bielles, couple de serrage de la ou des culasses ou utilisation de barres parallèles, utilisation du
vérificateur d’allumage, mesure du jet des pistons/jeu en bout des segments, mesure de l’écart entre le vilebrequin
et le carter, rectification du cylindre, vérification de fuite du moteur.
5. ILLUSTRATIONS
Contrairement aux Catalogues de pièces, les illustrations de ce manuel ne montrent pas nécessairement chacune
des pièces qu’elles représentent, leur raison d’être étant plutôt de faciliter la reconnaissance des pièces reliées à
un barème de temps à taux fixe. Les numéros d’items sur les illustrations correspondent aux quatre ou cinq
derniers chiffres du code de travail.

Some points to remember about hy-


pothermia protection:
– While afloat in the water, do not at-
tempt to swim unless it is to reach
a nearby watercraft, fellow sur-
vivor, or a floating object onto which
you can lean or climb. Unneces-
sary swimming increases the rate
of body heat loss. In cold water,
drown-proof methods that require
putting your head in the water are
not recommended. Keep your head
out of the water. This will greatly
lessen heat loss and increase your
survival time.
– Maintain a positive attitude about
your survival and rescue. This will
improve your chances of extending
your survival time until you can be
rescued. Your will to live does make
a difference!
– If there is more than one person
in the water, huddling together is
recommended. This action tends to
reduce the rate of heat loss and thus
increase the survival time.
– Always wear your PFD. It won't help
you fight off the effects of hypother-
mia if you don't have it on when you
go into the water.

Safe Boating Courses


Many countries recommend or require
a boating safety course. Check with
your local competent authorities.
Check local and federal boating laws
applicable to the waterways where
you intend to use your watercraft.
Learn the local navigation rules. Know
and understand the applicable naviga-
tion system (such as buoys and signs).

Description
The speedometer, located in the LH
side of the information center, pro-
vides an analog indication of the speed
of the watercraft in miles per hour
(MPH) and kilometers per hour (km/h).
The speed indication is based on a GPS
(Global Positioning System) incorpo-
rated within the information center.
If for some reason the GPS signal is
lost, a default mode is used whereby,
the speed is calculated using infor-
mation received from other systems
to provide an estimated watercraft
speed.

Analog Tachometer
Description
The tachometer provides an analog in-
dication of the revolutions per minute
(RPM) of the engine. Multiply the in-
dicated number by 1000 to obtain the
actual engine RPM.

BREAK-IN PERIOD
Operation During Break-In
Period
A break-in period of 10 operating hours
is required before running the water-
craft at sustained full throttle.
During this period, maximum throttle
should not exceed 1/2 to 3/4 opening.
However, brief full acceleration and
speed variations contribute to a good
break-in.
NOTICE Continued wide open
throttle accelerations or operation,
prolonged cruising speeds are detri-
mental during the break-in period.
NOTE: GTR 215: During the first 5
hours of operation, the engine man-
agement limits the engine maximum
speed for engine protection. The en-
gine performance will progressively
increase during this period.

the engine’s emissions of any regulated pollutant within the stated warranty
period at no cost to the owner, including expenses related to diagnosing and
repairing or replacing emission-related parts. All defective parts replaced under

based on any of the following:
1. Maintenance or other service BRP or BRP's authorized facilities performed.

4. Maintenance that was performed more frequently than BRP specify.
5. Anything that is BRP fault or responsibility.

commercial use.
The repair or replacement of parts or the performance of service under this war-
ranty does not extend the life of this warranty beyond its original expiration date.

ject to the applicable national or local legislation in the customer's country.

______________ 167
5. CONDITIONS TO HAVE WARRANTY COVERAGE
This warranty coverage is available only if each of the following conditions has
been fulfilled:
– The 2015 Sea-Doo personal watercraft must be purchased as new and unused
by its first owner from a Sea-Doo Distributor/Dealer authorized to distribute Sea-
Doo personal watercrafts in the country in which the sale occurred;
– The BRP specified pre-delivery inspection process must be completed and doc-
umented;

tion by an authorized Sea-Doo Distributor/Dealer;

an EEA resident, in the CIS for residents of the countries comprised in such
area and in Turkey for residents of Turkey; and
– Routine maintenance outlined in the Operator’s Guide must be timely per-
formed in order to maintain warranty coverage. BRP reserves the right to make
warranty coverage contingent upon proof of proper maintenance.
BRP will not honor this limited warranty to any private use owner or commercial
use owner if one of the preceding conditions has not been met. Such limitations
are necessary in order to allow BRP to preserve both the safety of its products,
and also that of its consumers and the general public.

6. WHAT TO DO TO OBTAIN WARRANTY COVERAGE


UNDER THIS WARRANTY
The customer must cease using the Sea-Doo personal watercraft upon the
appearance of an anomaly. The customer must notify a servicing Sea-Doo
Distributor/Dealer within two (2) months of the appearance of a defect, and pro-
vide it with reasonable access to the product and reasonable opportunity to repair
it. The customer must also present to the authorized Sea-Doo Distributor/Dealer,
proof of purchase of the product and must sign the repair/work order prior to
starting the repair in order to validate the warranty repair. All parts replaced under
this limited warranty become the property of BRP.
Note that the notification period is subject to the applicable national or local legisla-
tion in customer's country.

7. WHAT BRP WILL DO


To the extent permitted by law, BRP’s obligations under this warranty are limited
to, at its sole discretion, repairing parts found defective under normal use, main-
tenance and service, or replacing such parts with new genuine Sea-Doo parts
without charge for parts and labor, at any authorized Sea-Doo Distributor/Dealer
during the warranty coverage period under the conditions described herein.
BRP’s responsibility is limited to making the required repairs or replacements of
parts. No claim of breach of warranty shall be cause for cancellation or rescission
of the sale of the Sea-Doo personal watercraft to the owner. You may have other
legal rights which may vary from country to country.
In the event that service is required outside of the country of original sale, or
for EEA residents, if service is required outside of the EEA, for CIS residents, if
service is required outside of the CIS, the owner will bear responsibility for any
additional charges due to local practices and conditions, such as, but not limited

168 ______________
to, freight, insurance, taxes, license fees, import duties, and any and all other
financial charges, including those levied by governments, states, territories and
their respective agencies.
BRP reserves the right to improve or modify products from time to time without as-
suming any obligation to modify products previously manufactured.

8. TRANSFER
If the ownership of a product is transferred during the warranty coverage period,
this warranty shall also be transferred and be valid for the remaining coverage
period provided BRP or an authorized Sea-Doo Distributor/Dealer receives a proof
that the former owner agreed to the transfer of ownership, in addition to the
coordinates of the new owner.

9. CONSUMER ASSISTANCE
1. In the event of a controversy or a dispute in connection with this limited
warranty, BRP suggests that you try to resolve the issue at the Sea-Doo
Distributor/Dealer level. We recommend discussing the issue with the autho-
rized Sea-Doo Distributor/Dealer's service manager or owner.
2. If further assistance is required, the Sea-Doo Distributor/Dealer service depart-
ment should be contacted in order to resolve the matter.
3. If the matter still remains unresolved then contact BRP at the address listed be-
low.

ADDITIONAL TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR FRANCE ONLY
The following terms and conditions are applicable to products sold in France only:
The seller shall deliver goods that are complying with the contract and shall be re-
sponsible for defects existing upon delivery. The seller shall also be responsible for
defects resulting from packaging, assembling instructions or the installation when
it is its responsibility per the contract or if accomplished under its responsibility. To
be compliant with the contract, the good shall:
1. Be fit for normal use for goods similar thereto and, if applicable:
• Correspond to the description provided by the seller and have the qualities
presented to the buyer though sample or model;
• Have the qualities that a buyer may legitimately expect considering the pub-
lic declarations of the seller, the manufacturer of its representative, including

seller and which accepted.
The action for failure to comply is prescribed after two years after delivery of the
goods. The seller is responsible for the warranty for hidden defects of the good
sold if such hidden defects are rendering the good unfit for the intended use, or

good or would have given a lesser price, had he known. The action for such hidden
defects shall be taken by the buyer within 2 years of the discovery of the defect.

CHANGE OF ADDRESS/OWNERSHIP
If your address has changed or if you are the new owner of the watercraft, be sure
to notify BRP by either:
– Mailing one of the following card below;
– North America Only: calling at 715 848-4957 (USA) or 819 566-3366 (Canada);
– Contacting an authorized BRP distributor/dealer.

to the transfer.

it enables BRP to reach the watercraft owner if necessary, like when safety recalls
are initiated. It is the owner’s responsibility to notify BRP.
STOLEN UNITS: In the event that your watercraft is stolen, you should notify your
area’s distributor warranty department of such. We will ask you to provide your
name, address, phone number, Hull Identification Number and date it was stolen.

– While afloat in the water, do not at-

of body heat loss. In cold water,
drown-proof methods that require
putting your head in the water are
not recommended. Keep your head
out of the water. This will greatly
lessen heat loss and increase your

– Maintain a positive attitude about

Collisions result in
more INJURIES AND
DEATHS than any other type of
accident for personal watercraft (PWC).
TO AVOID COLLISIONS: SCAN CONSTANTLY for
people, objects, and other watercraft. Be alert for conditions that limit
your visibility or block your vision of others.
OPERATE DEFENSIVELY at safe speeds and keep a safe distance away
from people, objects, and other watercraft.
• Do not follow directly behind PWCs or other
boats.
• Do not go near others to spray or splash them
with water.
• Avoid sharp turns or other maneuvers that
make it hard for others to avoid you or understand where you are going.
• Avoid areas with submerged objects or shallow water.
TAKE EARLY ACTION to avoid collisions. Remember, PWCs and
other boats do not have brakes.
DO NOT RELEASE THROTTLE WHEN TRYING TO STEER away
from objects – you need throttle to steer. Always check throttle and
steering controls for proper operation before starting PWC.
Follow navigation rules and province / state and local laws that
apply to PWCs. See Operator's Guide for more information.

BREAK-IN PERIOD
Operation During Break-In
Period
A break-in period of 10 operating hours
is required before running the water-
craft at sustained full throttle.
During this period, maximum throttle
should not exceed 1/2 to 3/4 opening.
However, brief full acceleration and
speed variations contribute to a good
break-in.
NOTICE Continued wide open
throttle accelerations or operations
and prolonged cruising speeds are
detrimental during the break-in pe-
riod.

Break-In Mode
This model has a break-in mode pro-
grammed to ensure initial engine pro-
tection.
During the first 5 hours of operation,
the engine management limits the en-
gine maximum speed for engine pro-
tection. The engine performance will
progressively increase during this pe-
riod.

Towing the Watercraft in


Water
Special precautions should be taken
when towing a Sea-Doo watercraft in
water.
The maximum recommended towing
speed is 24 km/h (15 MPH).
This will prevent the exhaust system
from filling with water, which may lead
to water being injected into and filling
the engine. Without the engine run-
ning, there isn't any exhaust pressure
to push the water out the exhaust out-
let.
NOTICE Failure to follow these
instructions may result in damage
to the engine. If you must tow a
stranded watercraft in water, be sure
not to exceed the maximum towing
speed of 24 km/h (15 MPH).
If you have to tow the watercraft faster
than the maximum recommended
speed, clamp the cross over hose.

the Sea-Doo personal watercraft, the emission-related warranty is not condi-
tioned on the use of an authorized Sea-Doo dealer or any other establishment
with which BRP has a commercial relationship. For emission-related warranty
claims, BRP is limiting the diagnosis and repair of emission-related parts to the
authorized Sea-Doo dealers. For more information, please refer to the US EPA
EMISSION-RELATED WARRANTY contained herein. Proper maintenance is the
owner’s responsibility. A warranty claim may be denied if, among other things,
the owner or operator caused the problem through improper maintenance or use.
You must follow the instructions for fuel requirements in the fueling section of
this manual. Even if gasoline containing greater than ten volume percent ethanol
is readily available, the US EPA issued a prohibition against the use of gasoline
containing greater than 10 vol% ethanol that applies to this vehicle. The use of
gasoline containing greater than 10 vol% ethanol with this engine may harm the
emission control system.
Maintenance is very important for keeping the watercraft in a safe operating con-
dition. The watercraft should be serviced as per the maintenance schedule.
Carry out all maintenance as listed in the schedule whenever the hours or time of
each column is reached.
NOTE: As an example, at 200 hours or 2 years, complete all items in this column
and ALSO in the EVERY 100 hours or 1 year column.

WARNING
Failure to properly maintain the watercraft according to the maintenance
schedule and procedures can make it unsafe to operate.

The maintenance schedule does not exempt the pre-ride inspection.

US EPA EMISSION-RELATED WARRANTY
Bombardier Recreational Products Inc. (“BRP”)* warrants to the ultimate pur-
chaser and each subsequent purchaser that this new engine, including all parts of
its exhaust emission control system and its evaporative emission control system,
meets two conditions:
1. It is designed, built, and equipped so it conforms at the time of sale to the ulti-
mate purchaser with the requirements of 40 CFR 1045 and 40 CFR 1060.
2. It is free from defects in materials and workmanship that may keep it from
meeting the requirements of 40 CFR 1045 and 40 CFR 1060.
Where a warrantable condition exists, BRP will repair or replace, as it elects, any
part or component with a defect in materials or workmanship that would increase
the engine’s emissions of any regulated pollutant within the stated warranty
period at no cost to the owner, including expenses related to diagnosing and
repairing or replacing emission-related parts. All defective parts replaced under
this warranty become the property of BRP.
For all emission-related warranty claims, BRP is limiting the diagnosis and repair of
emission-related parts to the authorized Sea-Doo dealers, unless for emergency
repairs as required by item 2 of the following list.
As a certifying manufacturer, BRP will not deny emission-related warranty claims
based on any of the following:
1. Maintenance or other service BRP or BRP's authorized facilities performed.
2. Engine/equipment repair work that an operator performed to correct an unsafe,
emergency condition attributable to BRP as long as the operator tries to restore
the engine/equipment to its proper configuration as soon as possible.
3. Any action or inaction by the operator unrelated to the warranty claim.
4. Maintenance that was performed more frequently than BRP specify.
5. Anything that is BRP fault or responsibility.
6. The use of any fuel that is commonly available where the equipment operates
unless BRP written maintenance instructions state that this fuel would harm
the equipment’s emission control system and operators can readily find the
proper fuel. See maintenance information section and fuel requirements of
fueling section.

Emission-Related Warranty Period


The emission-related warranty is valid for the following period whichever comes
first:
HOURS MONTHS
Exhaust emission-related components 175 30
Evaporative emission-related components N/A 24

128 ______________
Components Covered
The emission-related warranty covers all components whose failure would in-
crease an engine’s emissions of any regulated pollutant, including the following
listed components:
1. For exhaust emissions, emission-related components include any engine parts
related to the following systems:
– Air-induction system
– Fuel system
– Ignition system

______________ 129
Limited Applicability
As a certifying manufacturer, BRP may deny emission-related warranty claims
for failures that have been caused by the owner’s or operator’s improper main-
tenance or use, by accidents for which the manufacturer has no responsibility,
or by acts of God. For example, an emission-related warranty claim need not be
honored for failures that have been directly caused by the operator’s abuse of the
engine/equipment or the operator’s use of the engine/equipment in a manner for
which it was not designed and are not attributable to the manufacturer in any way.

CHANGE OF ADDRESS/OWNERSHIP
If your address has changed or if you are the new owner of the watercraft, be sure
to notify BRP by either:
– Mailing one of the following card below;
– North America Only: calling at 715 848-4957 (USA) or 819 566-3366 (Canada);
– Contacting an authorized BRP distributor/dealer.
In case of change of ownership, please join a proof that the former owner agreed
to the transfer.
Notifying BRP, even after the expiration of the limited warranty, is very important as
it enables BRP to reach the watercraft owner if necessary, like when safety recalls
are initiated. It is the owner’s responsibility to notify BRP.
STOLEN UNITS: In the event that your watercraft is stolen, you should notify your
area’s distributor warranty department of such. We will ask you to provide your
name, address, phone number, Hull Identification Number and date it was stolen.

operating in cold water (below 4°C
(40°F)) consideration should be given
to using a coat or jacket style PFD as
they cover more body area than the

Some points to remember about hy-
pothermia protection:
– While afloat in the water, do not at-
tempt to swim unless it is to reach
a nearby boat, fellow survivor, or a
floating object onto which you can
lean or climb. Unnecessary swim-
ming increases the rate of body heat
loss. In cold water, drown-proof
methods that require putting your
head in the water are not recom-
mended. Keep your head out of the
water. This will greatly lessen heat
loss and increase your survival time.
– Maintain a positive attitude about
your survival and rescue. This will
improve your chances of extending
your survival time until you can be
rescued. Your will to live does make
a difference!
– If there is more than one person
in the water, huddling together is
recommended. This action tends to
reduce the rate of heat loss and thus
increase the survival time.
– Always wear your PFD. It won't help
you fight off the effects of hypother-
mia if you don't have it on when you
go into the water.

To reduce the risk of SEVERE INJURY DEATH:


WEAR A PERSONAL FLOTATION DEVICE (PFD). All riders must wear a Coast Guard approved PFD that is suitable for personal
watercraft (PWC) use.
WEAR PROTECTIVE CLOTHING. Severe internal injuries can occur if water is forced into body cavities as a result of falling into water or being
near jet thrust nozzle. Normal swimwear does not adequately protect against forceful water entry into lower body opening(s) of males or females.
All riders must wear a wet suit bottom or clothing that provides equivalent protection (see Operator's Guide). Footwear, gloves, and
goggles/glasses are recommended.
KNOW BOATING LAWS. BRP recommends a minimum operator age of 16 years old. Know the operator age and training
requirements for your province/ state. A boating safety course is recommended and may be required in your province/ state.
ATTACH ENGINE SHUT-OFF CORD (LANYARD) to PFD and keep it free from handlebars so that engine stops if
operator falls off. After riding, remove cord from PWC to avoid unauthorized use by children or others.
RIDE WITHIN YOUR LIMITS AND AVOID AGGRESSIVE MANEUVERS to reduce the risk of loss of control,
ejection, and collision. This is a high performance boat - not a toy. Sharp turns or jumping wakes or waves can
increase the risk of back/spinal injury (paralysis), facial injuries, and broken legs, ankles, and other bones. Do not
jump wakes or waves.
DO NOT APPLY THROTTLE WHEN ANYONE IS AT REAR OF PWC
- turn engine off or keep engine at idle. Water and/or debris exiting jet thrust nozzle can cause severe
injury.

KEEP AWAY FROM INTAKE GRATE while engine is on. Items such as long hair, loose
clothing, or PFD straps can become entangled in moving parts resulting in severe
injury or drowning.
NEVER RIDE AFTER CONSUMING DRUGS OR ALCOHOL

INFORMATION CENTER (GAUGES)

1) Speedometer
The speedometer, located in the LH
side of the information center, pro-
vides an analog indication of the speed
of the watercraft in miles per hour
(MPH) and kilometers per hour (km/h).
The speed indication is based on a GPS
(Global Positioning System) incorpo-
rated within the information center.
If for some reason the GPS signal is
lost, a default mode is used whereby,
the speed is calculated using infor-
mation received from other systems
to provide an estimated watercraft
speed.

2) Tachometer
The tachometer provides an analog in-
dication of the revolutions per minute
(RPM) of the engine. Multiply the in-
dicated number by 1000 to obtain the
actual engine RPM.

3) Multifunction Gauge
The multifunction gauge, located in the
center of the information center, is ca-
pable of displaying different indications
simultaneously.
Numerical and multifunction displays
in the digital screen indicator can be
used to display various indications, or
for selecting modes of operation and
changing settings as explained in their
respective sections.

BREAK-IN PERIOD
Operation During Break-In
Period
A break-in period of 10 operating hours
is required before running the water-
craft at sustained full throttle.
During this period, maximum throttle
should not exceed 1/2 to 3/4 opening.
However, brief full acceleration and
speed variations contribute to a good
break-in.
NOTICE Continued wide open
throttle accelerations or operation,
prolonged cruising speeds are detri-
mental during the break-in period.
NOTE: 215 and 260 engines: Dur-
ing the first 5 hours of operation, the
engine management limits the engine
maximum speed for engine protection.
The engine performance will progres-
sively increase during this period.

MAINTENANCE

______________ 131
MAINTENANCE SCHEDULE
Maintenance is very important for keeping the watercraft in a safe operating con-
dition. The watercraft should be serviced as per the maintenance schedule.
A repair shop or person of the owner's choosing may maintain, replace, or re-
pair emission control devices and systems. These instructions do not require
components or service by BRP or authorized Sea-Doo dealers. Although an au-
thorized Sea-Doo dealer has an in-depth technical knowledge and tools to service
the Sea-Doo personal watercraft, the emission-related warranty is not condi-
tioned on the use of an authorized Sea-Doo dealer or any other establishment
with which BRP has a commercial relationship. For emission-related warranty
claims, BRP is limiting the diagnosis and repair of emission-related parts to the
authorized Sea-Doo dealers. For more information, please refer to the US EPA
EMISSION-RELATED WARRANTY contained herein. Proper maintenance is the
owner’s responsibility. A warranty claim may be denied if, among other things,
the owner or operator caused the problem through improper maintenance or use.
You must follow the instructions for fuel requirements in the fueling section of
this manual. Even if gasoline containing greater than ten volume percent ethanol
is readily available, the US EPA issued a prohibition against the use of gasoline
containing greater than 10 vol% ethanol that applies to this vehicle. The use of
gasoline containing greater than 10 vol% ethanol with this engine may harm the
emission control system.
Disregard the information pertaining to the following systems if the watercraft is
not equipped with these features:
– iBR (intelligent Brake and Reverse)
– iS (intelligent Suspension) (GTX LTD iS only)
– aS (adjustable Suspension) (RXT-X aS only)
Carry out all maintenance as listed in the schedule whenever the hours or time of
each column is reached.
NOTE: As an example, at 200 hours or 2 years, complete all items in this column
and ALSO in the EVERY 100 hours or 1 year column.

WARNING
Failure to properly maintain the watercraft according to the maintenance
schedule and procedures can make it unsafe to operate.

The maintenance schedule does not exempt the pre-ride inspection.

mate purchaser with the requirements of 40 CFR 1045 and 40 CFR 1060.
2. It is free from defects in materials and workmanship that may keep it from
meeting the requirements of 40 CFR 1045 and 40 CFR 1060.
Where a warrantable condition exists, BRP will repair or replace, as it elects, any
part or component with a defect in materials or workmanship that would increase
the engine’s emissions of any regulated pollutant within the stated warranty
period at no cost to the owner, including expenses related to diagnosing and
repairing or replacing emission-related parts. All defective parts replaced under
this warranty become the property of BRP.
For all emission-related warranty claims, BRP is limiting the diagnosis and repair of
emission-related parts to the authorized Sea-Doo dealers, unless for emergency
repairs as required by item 2 of the following list.
As a certifying manufacturer, BRP will not deny emission-related warranty claims
based on any of the following:
1. Maintenance or other service BRP or BRP's authorized facilities performed.
2. Engine/equipment repair work that an operator performed to correct an unsafe,
emergency condition attributable to BRP as long as the operator tries to restore
the engine/equipment to its proper configuration as soon as possible.
3. Any action or inaction by the operator unrelated to the warranty claim.
4. Maintenance that was performed more frequently than BRP specify.
5. Anything that is BRP fault or responsibility.

Limited Applicability
As a certifying manufacturer, BRP may deny emission-related warranty claims
for failures that have been caused by the owner’s or operator’s improper main-
tenance or use, by accidents for which the manufacturer has no responsibility,
or by acts of God. For example, an emission-related warranty claim need not be
honored for failures that have been directly caused by the operator’s abuse of the
engine/equipment or the operator’s use of the engine/equipment in a manner for
which it was not designed and are not attributable to the manufacturer in any way.

the ignition system and catalytic converter. Also included may be hoses, belts,
connectors and other emission related assemblies.
Where a warrantable condition exists, BRP will repair your personal watercraft en-
gine at no cost to you including diagnosis, parts and labor provided that such work

Manufacturer’s Limited Warranty Coverage


This emission limited warranty covers Model Year 2015 Sea-Doo personal wa-
tercrafts certified and produced by BRP for sale in California or New York, that
are originally sold in California or New York to a California or New York resident or
subsequently warranty registered to a California or New York resident. The BRP
limited warranty conditions for Sea-Doo personal watercrafts are still applicable
to these models with the necessary modifications. Select emission control
parts of your 2015 Sea-Doo personal watercrafts are warranted from the date of
delivery to the first retail consumer for a period of 4 years, or for 250 hours of use,
whichever occurs first. However, warranty coverage based on the hourly period is
only permitted for personal watercraft equipped with the appropriate hour meters
or their equivalent. If any emission-related part on your engine is defective under
warranty, the part will be repaired or replaced by BRP.

period of the personal watercraft, unless the part is scheduled for replacement as

Emission warranty parts that are scheduled for replacement, as required mainte-
nance, are warranted by BRP for the period of time before the first scheduled re-
placement date for that part. Emission warranty parts that are scheduled for reg-
ular inspection, but not regular replacement, are warranted by BRP for the entire

Owner’s Warranty Responsibilities
As the owner of a 2015 Sea-Doo personal watercraft, you are responsible for the
performance of the required maintenance listed in your Operator’s Guide. BRP
recommends that you retain all receipts covering maintenance of your personal
watercraft engine, but BRP cannot deny warranty solely for the lack of receipts or
your failure to ensure the performance of all scheduled maintenance.
As the owner of a Sea-Doo® personal watercraft, you should however be aware
that BRP may deny you warranty coverage if your engine(s) or a part has failed due
to abuse, neglect, improper maintenance or unapproved modifications.
You are responsible for presenting your engine to an authorized BRP Dealer as
soon as a problem exists. The warranty repairs will be completed in a reasonable
amount of time, not to exceed 30 days.
If you have any questions regarding your warranty rights and responsibilities or for
the name and location of the nearest authorized BRP Dealer you should contact the
Customer Assistance Center at 1 715 848-4957.
